Need urgent mold inspection in Jumeirah Park?« Back to Previous Page
|
My kids have been coughing constantly for the past month, and I've started getting headaches that won't go away. We just discovered a huge patch of black and green fuzzy stuff behind the wardrobe in our master bedroom in Jumeirah Park, which must have been hidden there for ages. I'm really worried this is what's making us sick.
What is the best way to get a professional mold inspection done here, and should I be taking any immediate steps before they arrive?

Based on your description of persistent respiratory symptoms in children and the discovery of a significant hidden mold colony, you are correct to be concerned. This situation requires immediate professional assessment. The black and green growth is a strong indicator of active fungal colonization, and the health effects you're experiencing are consistent with exposure to mycotoxins and mold spores.
Given the UAE's high humidity levels, especially during summer, and the constant use of AC which can create condensation points, properties in Jumeirah Park are particularly susceptible to such issues. The mold behind the wardrobe is likely a symptom of a broader moisture problem that needs to be identified. Before our certified inspectors arrive, take these critical steps to mitigate risk: 1. Restrict access to the affected bedroom to prevent further spore inhalation. 2. Do not attempt to disturb or clean the mold yourself, as this will aerosolize spores and exacerbate contamination. 3. Ensure your AC system is running continuously on a dry mode setting to help reduce ambient humidity levels indoors. 4. If possible, safely move the wardrobe away from the wall to improve air circulation, but avoid contact with the growth itself. For a compliant inspection under Dubai Municipality guidelines, you need a certified professional. Our process involves a comprehensive assessment including moisture mapping with thermal imaging, precise air and surface sampling sent to an accredited lab for speciation, and a detailed report outlining the extent of contamination and a scope for remediation. This is not a DIY situation. For an urgent inspection and to discuss your case with a specialist, please call us immediately at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com.
