For many, the thought of sleeping in a den of dust mites and germs is enough to cause waking nightmares. However, for more people than we like to think, this is likely a reality. According to a study over 70% of mattresses are contaminated with allergy-inducing dust mites. Still, we all dread the idea of buying a new mattress every eight years, as merchandisers suggest we do.

When cleaning your mattresses, we leave them not only clean and fresh but allergy free as well. Mattresses should be cleaned at least once every six months by a professional cleaner. A neutralising spray can also be used to reduce any allergen irritants between your regular cleaning. WestEnd Steam Cleaning are experts in mattress cleaning and are equipped with the latest professional machinery on the market. We use a powerful hot water extraction system, which simultaneously cleans and dries the material of your mattress.

WestEnd 7 step unique mattress cleaning guide

1. Pre-inspection

Our technician will perform special tests to determine the content of fabric; the content will determine what type of cleaning solutions and techniques are too used. We will always point out any potential permanent stains or areas of concerns.

Our state of the art vacuum cleaners are highly efficient, they don’t lose suction, so they remove more dirt, dust and pet hair from your environment. Dry vacuuming will remove more than 70% of dry soil.

3. Area Preparation

We will prepare the area where the upholstery will be cleaned to protect surrounding furnishings.

4. Pre-treatment and Spotting

Depending on your fabric a special solution designed for your material type and the soiling condition will be applied to emulsify the soil. We use a hot detergent, and immediately it starts working to break down sweat and soil. Any potential tricky spots will be pre-treated to increase chances of removal.

5. Soil Extraction and Rise (Steam Cleaning)

Our state of the art equipment is used to provide a prominent level of heat and cleaning power. The material is rinsed softly and then extracted using a powerful vacuum. Our equipment ensures that the fabric is not over wet as well as reducing the drying time. In some instances, cold cleaning is more efficient pending the material type.

6. Post Spot Treatment

The fabric will be agitated using a soft brush, sponge or pad. This helps to loosen the soil and break down fats and oils.
