Mattress cleaning
You spend a third of your life on it and probably haven't cleaned it. We vacuum, treat and clean the surface so it's fresher to sleep on.
- Main bedrooms and guest rooms
- Children's mattresses after accidents
- Furnished lets between tenants
A fresher mattress without replacing it
Mattresses collect dust, skin and sweat quietly over years. We start with a thorough vacuum to lift what's on and just below the surface, pre-treat any marks, then clean and freshen the sleeping surfaces. It won't make an old mattress new, but it makes a real difference to one that's still in good shape.
A mattress picks up dust, skin and sweat night after night, and none of it shows until there's a mark. Turning it helps; cleaning it helps a lot more.
We start with a thorough vacuum of the sleeping surfaces, then pre-treat any marks and clean and freshen the mattress. It's a quick job to add to a carpet or sofa clean, and a sensible one between tenants in a furnished let.

Questions
Mattress cleaning questions
How much does mattress cleaning cost?
Mattress cleaning starts at £20 a mattress, depending on size and condition.
When can I use the bed again?
Once the mattress is dry. We'll give you advice on the day; leaving the bed unmade and the room ventilated helps.
Will it remove old stains?
Older stains may lighten rather than disappear. Fresher marks usually respond better.
