How To Fix Saggy Couch Springs

Saggy couch springs can be a real pain. They can make your couch uncomfortable to sit on, and they can even cause back pain. If you're dealing with sagging couch springs, don't despair. There are a few things you can do to fix the problem.

The first step is to identify the type of springs in your couch. There are two main types of springs: coil springs and sinuous springs. Coil springs are made of metal coils, while sinuous springs are made of zig-zag shaped wire.

Once you know the type of springs in your couch, you can start to fix the problem.

A new coil spring

To fix a coil spring, follow these steps:

Fixing Sinuous Springs

Sinuous springs are a bit more difficult to fix than coil springs. You will need:

A pair of pliers
A screwdriver
A new sinuous spring
A piece of plywood
A staple gun

To fix a sinuous spring, follow these steps:

1. Remove the cushions from your couch. 2. Locate the sagging spring. 3. Use the pliers to remove the old spring. 4. Cut a piece of plywood to the same size as the old spring. 5.
