North West notes on supplies & care
Potchefstroom students and landlords buy faux suede or tough woven fabric for a quick couch recover, and DIYers pick up foam offcuts, staples and webbing to redo seat pads. Boat owners at the dam ask foam suppliers for open-cell outdoor foam that drains. On farms where dust gets into every couch, many people rent an extraction machine for a weekend, but check the cleaning code first, because S and X fabrics must not get wet.

Weekend boats on Hartbeespoort Dam, platinum mine fleets around Rustenburg and maize farms out towards Lichtenburg give upholsterers in North West a mixed workload.

In Potchefstroom, student digs and landlords recover worn couches between academic years, and Mahikeng has government offices and churches with chairs to redo in bulk. Workshops sit in the industrial areas of Rustenburg, Klerksdorp, Potchefstroom and Brits, with home workshops in the townships, and specialist foam and fabric often comes from Gauteng.
