Need mold inspection for damp wall in Dubai home?« Back to Previous Page
|
My kids have been coughing and I suspect it's from the black spots I just found behind our bedroom wardrobe. We've lived here in Jumeirah for 2 years and just noticed this when I was rearranging furniture. The wall feels slightly damp to the touch. Who is the best company in Dubai to call for a proper mold inspection and remediation that won't try to overcharge me?

Based on your description of black spots, a damp wall, and associated health symptoms like coughing in children, this is a situation that requires immediate professional attention. In Dubai's climate, the high humidity, especially during summer months and in areas like Jumeirah near the coast, is a primary catalyst for mold growth behind furniture where air circulation is poor.
What you're describing indicates a moisture issue, likely from a small, hidden plumbing leak or, more commonly, condensation buildup due to the temperature differential between the air-conditioned interior and the external wall. A proper inspection is critical to identify the true moisture source; simply cleaning the visible mold will be a temporary fix if the underlying dampness isn't resolved. For a situation like this, you need a certified company that conducts a comprehensive inspection. This should include a visual assessment, moisture mapping with professional meters to find the full extent of the water intrusion, and air quality testing to identify the spore types and concentration levels, which is crucial given the health impacts. Be wary of companies that offer a "free inspection" and immediately push for expensive, full-scale remediation without providing detailed data and a clear scope of work. Our company follows the strictest international guidelines (IICRC S520) for mold remediation, which is the standard reputable firms in the UAE should adhere to. We provide a full report with lab results and a transparent, itemized quotation. For a proper assessment and to discuss your concerns about overcharging, I strongly recommend you call our team directly at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com to schedule a detailed inspection. |
