Living near the foot of the Dandenongs

Kilsyth sits at the base of the Dandenong Ranges, with a mix of post-war and 1970s to 1980s family homes, newer houses and units. Being close to the hills means winters that are a little cooler and damper than in the middle suburbs, and plenty of homes are heated with wood heaters or older ducted systems.

That climate affects bedrooms. Rooms on the shady side of the house, or ones closed up for long periods, can hold moisture, and a mattress absorbs it along with sweat from every night’s sleep. The result is a faint musty smell that does not go away when the sheets are changed. A clean removes the soil and body oils that hold the smell, and good airing afterwards stops it from coming back.

Some bedrooms in older homes also sit against a cold outside wall. Moving the bed a little away from the wall and keeping the curtains open on sunny days lets the room breathe, and it makes a real difference to how fresh the mattress stays between cleans.

Signs a mattress is due

Dust mites are part of every mattress, and their debris is a common allergy trigger. Our article on dust mite mattress cleaning explains what a professional clean removes.

• A stale or musty smell even with fresh sheets.
• Yellow or brown patches where heads and bodies rest.
• Waking up sneezing or stuffy more than usual.
• A child’s or pet’s accident that was only wiped on the surface.
• It has simply been a few years since it was last cleaned.

Dogs, cats and the bed

On bigger blocks near the hills, dogs are common, and many of them sleep on or beside the bed. They bring in dirt, hair and the smell of a wet coat after a walk in the rain. Accidents, from puppies or older pets, soak through the cover into the padding. Pet urine and odour treatment is available, and we treat the affected area at its source rather than masking it.

Our guide on keeping a mattress fresh with pets has simple steps that help, such as a washable throw at the foot of the bed and a protector that is washed often.

Helping it dry on a cool day

Mattresses are dry and usable by the same evening, and a little help goes a long way in a cool house. Open a window slightly so moist air can escape, run the heating at a comfortable level and use a fan if you have one. Leave the bed uncovered until bedtime. If you use a wood heater, warm the house as normal but keep the mattress in the bedroom rather than moving it near the fire.

Questions from Kilsyth customers

Can you get rid of a musty smell in a mattress?

In most cases, yes. Cleaning and deodorising remove the soil and moisture-related smell. If there are visible mould spots, tell us when you book so the technician can assess them first.

Do you charge to travel to Kilsyth?

No. There is no travel charge anywhere in metropolitan Melbourne. We work Monday to Saturday, 7am to 7pm.

How often should a mattress be cleaned?

Once a year suits most households. Allergy sufferers, families with young children and pet owners may want it done more often.

What do I need to do before you arrive?

Strip the beds, including the protector, and clear anything stored on or beside them. Let us know about recent accidents or stains. Plan to keep the room aired until the evening.
