Updated 2.17.2026

Kids and pets: we love them more than anything. But if you’ve ever found yourself searching “How to get pee out of a mattress” at 1 a.m., you know accidents are part of the package.

Urine stains can leave behind yellow rings, lingering odors and a whole lot of frustration. And while there are plenty of DIY hacks out there, you don’t have time to do all that research and execute it. Especially not when most of the methods still won’t fully fix the problem.

You figure enough things out. Let us take this one.

Why Mattresses Are So Tricky to Clean

“What are we going to do?”

Fair question.

Mattresses are thick, absorbent and full of layers you can’t just wipe down. Urine doesn’t just stay on the surface. It soaks deep into the materials, making it hard to fully remove without the right tools.

That’s why DIY methods often leave behind hidden moisture, lingering odor or worse: a stain that comes back.

Here’s What We Do Instead

  1. Then we vacuum the entire mattress. This gets rid of any dry debris (think: pet hair, dirt and the general buildup that lives in every mattress).
  2. Targeted spot treatment comes next. This is where we handle the urine stain directly. Our professional-grade solution is safe, neutral in pH and designed to break down organic messes without damaging the mattress fabric.
  3. Deep cleaning with hot water extraction. This is where the magic happens. We use high-temperature water and powerful suction to remove urine, bacteria and allergens from deep inside the mattress. (This is why it’s great to let us clean your mattress even if you don’t have urine stains.) No lingering moisture, no sticky residue, no harsh chemicals.
  4. Optional deodorizer for that fresh start. If there’s any odor left behind, we can apply a deodorizer that neutralizes smells at the source instead of just covering them up.
  5. Speedy dry and final walkthrough. The extraction part of our hot water extraction process helps dry your mattress ASAP. We’ll also always double-check our work with you before we leave.

We’d love nothing more. You deserve it with all you do for your family, day in and day out.
