A mattress can hold on to smells long after the cause is gone. Night sweat, a pet that sleeps on the bed, cigarette smoke or a damp room in a Brisbane summer can all leave a stale or musty odour that returns every time the bed warms up. Airing it in the sun helps a little, but the source is usually sitting deep in the fabric and foam where sunlight cannot reach.
Our Toowong booking line can arrange odour removal as a stand-alone job or as part of a full mattress clean. Tell us what the smell is like and when it started. We give you an upfront price and book a nearby independent crew to come out at a time that suits. Describing the smell helps a lot, since a sour sweat smell, a damp musty smell and a pet smell each call for a slightly different treatment.
- Vacuuming to clear dust, hair and debris that hold smells
- Hot water extraction to flush out sweat and body oils
- An enzyme or odour-neutralising treatment for the source
- Extra work on problem spots such as pet sleeping areas
- Tips on airflow to stop musty smells coming back
Musty smells often point to moisture. If your bedroom gets little breeze or sits against a damp wall, the crew may suggest a fan, a dehumidifier or lifting the mattress off a solid base now and then so air can move underneath. Those small changes help the fresh smell stay put through the humid months.
Odour removal suits anyone in Toowong with a spare bed that has been shut away, a pet that loves the doona, or a mattress bought second-hand. Call 07 3543 2094 to get your price and a time.
