You spend a third of your life on your mattress. Dead skin cells, sweat and dust mites accumulate quickly, and a standard bedsheet does not stop them.
What is actually in a mattress
- Dust mite waste, a common allergy trigger.
- Body oils and sweat that yellow the surface.
- Skin cells that feed the dust mite population.
- Spills and stains that have soaked below the cover.
How we clean mattresses
- High-filtration vacuuming to remove dry soil and allergens.
- Low-moisture pre-treatment for stains and body oils.
- Gentle extraction that does not oversaturate foam or springs.
- Fast drying with airflow so the bed is usable the same night.
Maintenance between cleanings
Use a washable mattress protector, wash bedding weekly in hot water, and vacuum the mattress surface every few months. These small habits extend the life of the mattress and reduce allergen load.
Common questions
How often should a mattress be cleaned?
Every 12 to 24 months, or more often if you have allergies, pets on the bed, or recent spills.
How long does mattress cleaning take to dry?
Typically 2 to 6 hours with airflow, so the bed is ready by evening.
