What is the cost of mold inspection in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

Based on my experience with mold investigations in Dubai, the cost for a professional inspection can vary significantly depending on the scope and methodology. For a suspected hidden issue like yours behind an AC unit, you're likely looking at a standard visual assessment combined with moisture mapping and air/surface sampling.

A basic inspection for a single room or area typically starts from AED 800 to AED 1,500. This usually includes a certified inspector using tools like borescopes to look inside walls and thermal imaging cameras to detect hidden moisture – both crucial for your situation. If laboratory analysis of air or swab samples is required to identify the mold type (which is highly recommended for that "earthy smell" as it confirms contamination), that adds an additional AED 300 to AED 600 per sample. For a case like yours, I'd budget between AED 1,200 to AED 2,000 for a comprehensive inspection with a couple of samples.

It's critical to hire a company that follows UAE standards and provides a detailed report for your records, as this may be needed for your landlord or property management. DIY tests are unreliable, especially for hidden mold.
