Mattress Cleaning Nunawading

Nunawading mattress cleaning in your own bedroom

We clean mattresses in Nunawading houses, units and townhouses on the bed frame, using low-moisture dry cleaning or hot water extraction depending on the cover and the soiling. Stain treatment and deodorising are part of every clean, and the mattress is dry and usable by the same evening. Ask through the quote form or call 1300 841 383 for a fixed price.

For allergy and asthma households

The leafy east is lovely for most of the year and hard going in spring. Pollen drifts in through open windows and on clothes and hair, then settles into bedding. Indoors, dust mites feed on the skin flakes that collect in the top layers of every mattress. For someone with hay fever, asthma or eczema, that combination can mean waking up congested even when the house looks clean.

Vacuuming the mattress helps, and so does washing the linen in hot water. A professional clean goes further, lifting allergen-laden dust and residue out of the quilting and the layers below. Our guide does dry cleaning remove allergens? explains what the low-moisture method can and cannot do.

Mattress cleaning works best as part of a wider routine. Wash sheets weekly in hot water, keep pets off the bed during pollen season, and close bedroom windows on windy spring days when the pollen count is high. If anyone is particularly sensitive, have the bedroom carpet cleaned at the same time, because dust and pollen settle there too.

Matching the method to the mattress

Not every mattress should be treated the same way. We look at the cover fabric, the construction and what the stains are before deciding.

• Pillow-top and euro-top mattresses, with deep soft layers, usually get the low-moisture method so the padding is not over-wet.
• Memory foam and latex are cleaned with minimal moisture, because foam holds water.
• Firm innerspring mattresses with a tightly woven cover handle hot water extraction well, which suits heavy sweat marks.
• Cot and children’s mattresses with a waterproof vinyl surface just need a careful surface clean.
• Ensemble bases and fabric bedheads can be cleaned on the same visit.

Older homes, newer townhouses, plenty of bedrooms

Nunawading’s streets mix original post-war houses with the townhouses that have replaced many of them. Townhouse bedrooms are often upstairs, which is no problem, since the mattress is cleaned where it sits and nothing has to be carried down the stairs. In older family homes, the spare room mattress is often the forgotten one. It may not be slept on much, but it gathers dust for years and can smell musty when guests arrive. It is worth adding to the list.

Making the clean last

Fit a breathable waterproof protector once the mattress is dry; it stops sweat and spills reaching the layers we have just cleaned. Rotate the mattress head to foot every few months so it wears evenly. On a dry, sunny day, strip the bed and leave the window open for an hour. Wash pillows or replace them regularly, since they cannot be cleaned this way.

Small spills are easier to deal with than people expect, as long as they are caught early. Blot, do not rub, and use a little cold water on a white cloth. Avoid soaking the spot, because moisture that sinks deep into the mattress is slow to dry and can leave a ring.

Questions from Nunawading customers

Can you clean the couch and carpet as well?

Yes. Our Nunawading carpet cleaning page covers the floors, and we clean fabric couches and chairs too. Everything goes on one fixed quote.

How often should a mattress be professionally cleaned?

Once a year suits most homes. If someone has allergies or asthma, or children or pets sleep on the bed, every six months is reasonable. Clean it sooner after an illness or an accident.

Do you work across the eastern suburbs?

Yes. We cover all of Whitehorse and the wider eastern suburbs, with no travel charge in metropolitan Melbourne.

Can we sleep on the mattress the same night?

Yes. The mattress is dry and usable by the same evening. Leave the bed unmade with the window open or a fan on until then, and book a morning visit if you want the most drying time.
