How to get a mold inspection in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

Given the symptoms you've described and the discovery of black spots, a professional mold inspection is strongly advised. In Dubai's climate, with its high humidity and continuous AC operation, condensation behind furniture like wardrobes is a common breeding ground for toxic mold species like Stachybotrys chartarum (black mold), which can cause persistent respiratory issues.

A proper inspection is not a visual assessment alone. Our certified technicians follow a rigorous protocol. It begins with a comprehensive visual examination using specialized tools like borescopes to access concealed cavities and moisture meters to quantify water content in building materials. Crucially, we perform air quality sampling both indoors and outdoors using calibrated pumps to collect spores on cassettes. Surface sampling via tape-lift or swab is used to identify the specific genus and species of the mold colony found behind the wardrobe.

All samples are analyzed by a UAE-accredited (DAC / ESMA compliant) laboratory to provide a definitive report on spore count types and concentrations. This scientific analysis is critical, as it determines the severity of the contamination and informs the required remediation protocol, which is mandatory for villas under Dubai Municipality's public health and safety regulations.

For your children's health and to properly identify the risk, do not disturb the area. I recommend you contact our team at Saniservice for an immediate, certified inspection.
