Is it too late to fix mold under AC myself?« Back to Previous Page

Based on your description, this is not a DIY situation. The combination of a long-term AC leak, the Dubai climate's high humidity, and the extensive visible growth of black and green mold indicates a significant infestation. The moisture has likely penetrated deep into the carpet, the underlay, and potentially the subflooring, which you cannot effectively address with surface cleaning.

Attempting to fix this yourself poses serious health risks from spore exposure during disturbance and a high probability of rapid regrowth if the moisture source and contaminated materials are not professionally addressed. The fast reproduction rate of mold in our humid environment means the problem is almost certainly worse than what is visible.

In the UAE, proper mold remediation is governed by strict health and safety standards (like those from DM and DHA) to ensure complete removal and prevent cross-contamination. This requires industrial-grade HEPA filtration, antimicrobial agents, and specialized techniques to dry structural elements completely.

For a case of this severity, a professional inspection is mandatory. We strongly recommend you call our certified team immediately at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com.
