Mattress Cleaning in Red Hook, Brooklyn

Bedrooms in Red Hook come in many forms: a sleeping loft up a ladder in a converted warehouse, a back bedroom in an old row house, or a ground-floor room close to the water where the air stays humid.

Humidity is hard on mattresses. Sweat and damp air soak in, and over time a bed can start to smell musty. Dust and allergens build up too.

We clean and sanitize the mattress in your home, so it does not have to be carried down a ladder or narrow stairs.

We open with a slow pass of a high-suction vacuum that lifts dust, skin flakes and crumbs from the top layer and the seams.

Marks are handled next, each with the right product. Sweat lines, urine, coffee and blood are what we meet most. Urine gets an enzyme product that breaks down the cause of the odor.

Sanitizing comes next, using only a light mist of solution. Near the harbor this is extra important: soaking a mattress would push water into the core, and in humid air that core could stay wet long enough to grow mildew.

Kids' bunk beds and the futon in a studio corner are welcome too. The futon cover can usually stay on while we work on the surface.

After cleaning, open windows on a dry day or run a fan or dehumidifier. Most mattresses are ready for bed the same evening.

For mattresses on platform beds and sleeping lofts, where air cannot reach underneath, we suggest lifting the mattress now and then to let it breathe.

Artists and makers who live where they work often find a fine layer of sawdust, plaster or clay dust on the bed. A thorough vacuum and surface clean remove it.

A note for anyone who was flooded in the past: a mattress that sat in floodwater should be replaced, not cleaned. Ours is a surface and odor cleaning, not a fix for flood damage.

We clean all sizes, from a guest daybed to a king, as well as memory foam and hybrid mattresses.

Carpet in that bedroom? It can be done on the same trip with Red Hook carpet cleaning. The full list lives on our Red Hook services page.
