That dip in the middle of your mattress is likely not a sign of misuse; rather, it&#8217;s a natural consequence of wear and tear.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This sagging usually indicates that your&nbsp;mattress may need to be replaced soon. However, if you&#8217;re not quite ready to let it go, there are several things you can do to address the issue and extend its lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read on to find out how to fix a sagging mattress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What causes mattress sagging?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All kinds of mattresses are prone to sagging after years of extensive use, including foam, innerspring, and hybrid mattresses. Depending on the type of mattress, there can be a variety of factors contributing to this sagging and causing your mattress to not support you like it used to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>With&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/types-of-foam-in-mattress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">foam mattresses<\/a>&nbsp;because the mattress is exposed to pressure for many hours every night, the foam will begin to soften and sag and the mattress becomes less responsive over the years.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/innerspring-mattress-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">innerspring mattresses<\/a>, the metal coils inside them lose tension over time and are not able to provide the support needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/hybrid-mattress-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hybrid mattress<\/a>, both of these things may happen at once.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the signs of mattress sagging?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few telltale signs of a sagging mattress. The most obvious one is an actual noticeable dip in the middle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But even if a dip isn&#8217;t noticeable, your body will know.&nbsp;Since a sagging mattress isn\u2019t able to provide proper support anymore, you might be feeling like you\u2019re sinking into your bed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find yourself propping your back with a pillow for additional support, that might be another sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you keep waking up tired or with a sore arm or sore back, that might be because&nbsp;you were sleeping in an uncomfortable position all night to avoid falling into the &#8220;hole&#8221; in the center.&nbsp;(Learn about the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/sagging-mattress-vs-body-impressions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">differences between body impressions and sagging<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How mattress sagging affects your sleep<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not a question that a sagging mattress can negatively impact your\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/what-is-sleep-quality\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sleep quality<\/a>. It&#8217;ll provide uneven support, causing you to strain your muscles during sleep as your body tries to find a way to support itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might start having&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/back-pain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">back pain<\/a>&nbsp;or pain in other parts of your body.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might also be tired in the morning because you\u2019ve spent the night trying to find a comfortable position or trying to avoid falling into the &#8220;hole&#8221; in the middle of the mattress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.saatva.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sagging2.jpg\" alt=\"Mattress topper strapped to bed\" class=\"wp-image-35221\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.saatva.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sagging2.jpg 740w, https:\/\/blog.saatva.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Sagging2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Using a topper can help make a sagging mattress more comfortable.&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to fix a sagging mattress<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A sagging mattress may be a sign that your mattress needs to be replaced soon. But oftentimes, there are ways to delay that and fix the issue temporarily. Here&#8217;s what you can do.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Rotate your mattress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes the solution is as simple as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/how-often-should-you-rotate-your-mattress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rotating your mattress<\/a>.\u00a0Except in those cases where the manufacturer\u2019s instructions advise against this, you should rotate your mattress regularly anyway, so that your body\u2019s weight isn&#8217;t always in the same spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if it&#8217;s already sagging, rotating your mattress might help you avoid sleeping in the hole.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/flippable-mattress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flipping the mattress<\/a>\u00a0in theory could also help, but the truth is that most modern mattresses aren&#8217;t designed to be flipped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Use a mattress topper<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/do-mattress-toppers-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mattress topper<\/a>&nbsp;is a piece of foam 2 to 4 inches in thickness that you can place on top of your mattress for extra comfort. It can be a great addition to a mattress, even if the mattress isn&#8217;t not sagging as it provides extra comfort.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mattress toppers have the ability to make the bed\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/how-to-make-mattress-feel-softer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">softer<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/how-to-make-mattress-firmer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">firmer<\/a>\u00a0as needed. In the case of a sagging mattress, they can help provide support that the mattress no longer provides. Shop our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/bedding?types=mattress+pad+and+toppers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">selection of mattress toppers<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Reinforce your mattress support<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing you can do to fix a sagging mattress is reinforce its support. To do that, simply take a big piece of plywood and place it between the mattress and the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/furniture?types=adjustable+bases%2Cmattress+foundation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">foundation<\/a>&nbsp;it\u2019s sitting on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can reduce the sinking feeling and might even reduce the hole in the middle a bit.&nbsp;If you like, you can use both the plywood&nbsp;<em>and<\/em>&nbsp;a mattress topper to fix both the support and the comfort surface level of the mattress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Replace your foundation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Check if your mattress has an appropriate foundation to support it. (Every mattress needs a different kind of foundation, and it&#8217;s best to check with the manufacturer to find out about yours.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your foundation has slats, those have to be close enough (and not bent under pressure) to provide proper support.&nbsp;Some mattresses require foundations that have at least six legs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Try DIY solutions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a temporary DIY solution, you can place a pillow under your back to help support your body and prevent it from sinking into the hole.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might choose to place the pillow under your hips or your back. Some prefer placing the pillow underneath the mattress, exactly under the sagging part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When to buy a new mattress<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No mattress will last forever. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saatva.com\/blog\/how-long-does-a-mattress-last\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">average lifespan of a mattress<\/a>&nbsp;is seven to 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve tried taking measures to fix your sagging mattress but you still wake up tired and with sore muscles, then it&#8217;s probably time to get a new mattress.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"saatva-product-slider bg-fuscous-gray text-white\">\n            <p class=\"bg-makara p-4 text-center\">Replace your old mattress with a luxury option from

A sagging mattress can&#8217;t be repaired, but there are a few things you can do to prolong its lifespan. For example, rotating your mattress, using a mattress topper, or reinforcing the foundation of your mattress can help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can you fix a mattress that sinks in the middle?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few things you can do to fix a mattress that sinks in the middle. Sometimes, replacing the foundation of the mattress or placing a piece of plywood between the current foundation and the mattress can help reduce the sagging. Alternatively, you can place a mattress topper on top of the mattress to provide a firmer comfort layer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I firm up my existing mattress?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your mattress doesn\u2019t provide the support you need, you can either use a mattress topper for a firmer comfort layer or place a piece of plywood underneath the mattress to reinforce its foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will a firm mattress topper help a sagging mattress?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, a firm mattress topper can temporarily fix the problem of the sagging mattress by providing a firmer comfort layer to sleep on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time for a new mattress?
