How to get a mold inspection in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page
|
We've lived here for 2 years and just noticed a patch of black spots spreading in the corner of our master bedroom closet, which is on an interior wall. It’s gotten worse since the humidity really kicked in last month. I’m worried it might be affecting our clothes and health. What’s the best way to get a proper mold inspection done here in Dubai to find the source?

Based on the symptoms you've described—black spots spreading on an interior wall, exacerbated by high humidity—a professional mold inspection is strongly recommended. In Dubai's climate, where high ambient humidity and constant air conditioning create significant condensation risks, interior wall cavities are prime locations for hidden mold growth, often stemming from a small, undetected leak in a pipe or a breach in the building's vapor barrier.
A proper inspection in the UAE, conducted to international standards like the IICRC S520, involves more than a visual assessment. Our certified inspectors use a combination of thermal imaging cameras to identify temperature differentials indicating moisture intrusion, hygrometers to measure humidity levels within the wall cavity and closet space, and borescopes to visually inspect inside walls with minimal intrusion. Surface and air sampling are then utilized to identify the specific genus of mold, which is critical for determining the appropriate remediation protocol and assessing potential health risks. This scientific approach is essential to locate the true moisture source; simply cleaning the visible spot is a temporary fix that will fail. For a definitive diagnosis and a remediation plan that addresses the root cause, I advise contacting a certified professional. Saniservice's team, trained in these exact methodologies, can provide a comprehensive assessment. You can schedule an inspection by calling 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or emailing hello@saniservice.com. Addressing this promptly is key to protecting your property and health. |
