Mattress rotated or flipped safely without doing your back in. I'll handle the heavy lifting, rotate it properly, and remake your bed - simple home help that genuinely extends your mattress life.
### Save Your Back (and Your Mattress)
Modern mattresses are **ridiculously heavy** - especially those memory foam ones. A king size can easily weigh 50-60kg, and they're awkward, floppy, and impossible to grip properly. Trying to rotate one solo is a recipe for a bad back.
But regular rotation genuinely matters - it prevents sagging, extends mattress life by years, and keeps you sleeping comfortably.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Most mattress warranties actually require regular rotation. Not doing it can void your guarantee if you need to make a claim.

### What Actually Needs Doing
Different mattresses need different care:
| Mattress Type | What It Needs | Why | |---------------|---------------|-----| | **Double-sided** (older) | Flip AND rotate every 3 months | Both sides need equal wear | | **Single-sided** (most modern) | Rotate 180° every 3-6 months | Prevents head-end sagging | | **Memory foam** | Rotate only (never flip) | Support layer only works one way up |
Not sure what yours needs? I'll check the label when I arrive.

Good to Know
> 📅 **Set a reminder:** Rotate your mattress every 6 months. I'm happy to set up a regular booking if you want this handled automatically - just call when the time comes round. **Multiple bedrooms?** Do them all in one visit - I'm already there and you'll save on the callout cost. **Old Exeter houses with narrow stairs?** No problem. If the mattress came up those stairs, we can rotate it in the room. I've dealt with plenty of tight Georgian and Victorian terraces where you can barely swing a cat. **Not sure if your mattress needs rotating?** Send me a photo of the label (usually on the side or bottom edge) and I'll tell you what it needs.
Frequently Asked Questions about Mattress rotating in Dawlish
Why do I need to rotate a mattress?
Regular rotation (every 3-6 months) helps mattresses wear evenly, preventing sagging and those uncomfortable dips. It genuinely extends the life of your mattress by years - but modern memory foam mattresses can be ridiculously heavy to shift on your own.
Can you flip mattresses as well as rotate them?
Yes, absolutely. Some older mattresses need flipping (turning over completely), while newer ones just need rotating (head becomes foot). I'll check what yours needs and do it properly - they're heavy buggers and awkward to handle solo.
Do I need to strip the bed first?
That makes it easier, but if you'd rather I do the whole job including stripping and remaking the bed, just let me know. I can handle it either way - whatever's most helpful for you.
How long does it take?
About half an hour for a standard double or king. That includes stripping, rotating or flipping, and remaking the bed if needed. Quick job but saves your back.
What about awkward bedrooms with no space?
I've dealt with tight Dawlish terraces where the bed basically fills the room. We manage - sometimes it means standing the mattress on end briefly or sliding it diagonally. Gets done one way or another.
