How to find reliable mold inspection in Dubai for sick kids?« Back to Previous Page
|
Our kids have been having a really bad runny nose and a cough that just won't go away, especially in the mornings. We live in an older villa in Mirdif, and I've just noticed a few small black spots starting to form in the corner of our master bedroom closet, which shares a wall with their bathroom. We run the AC constantly but it feels damp. How can I find a reliable company to do a proper mold inspection and tell us if this is what's making them sick?

Based on your description, this is a classic and serious scenario we encounter in Dubai, especially in older villas in areas like Mirdif. The combination of high ambient humidity, year-round AC operation leading to potential condensation issues, and a water source (the adjacent bathroom) creates a perfect environment for mold growth. The persistent respiratory symptoms in your children are a significant red flag that should not be ignored.
Finding a reliable inspection company is critical. In the UAE, look for a provider that adheres to international standards like the IICRC S520 for mold remediation. They must conduct a comprehensive assessment, which should include a visual inspection, moisture mapping with professional-grade tools like thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters, and most importantly, air quality and surface sampling. The samples must be analyzed by an accredited third-party laboratory to identify the species and concentration of mold spores. This scientific report is essential to definitively link the mold to the health symptoms and to develop a proper remediation protocol. Avoid companies that offer "free inspections" and immediately push for expensive remediation without providing verifiable lab data. For a case involving child health and potential hidden growth behind walls, a professional inspection is non-negotiable. I strongly recommend contacting our specialists at Saniservice.
