How to professionally treat mold without landlord trouble?« Back to Previous Page

The mold growth you're describing, particularly the black and green fuzzy spots, is a direct result of Dubai's high humidity interacting with your indoor environment. This is a Class 2 water damage situation (as per IICRC S520 standards) and requires a professional protocol to ensure it is remediated correctly and safely, not just wiped away.

The fastest and most professional method to avoid landlord trouble is to engage a certified mold inspection company like Saniservice. We provide a detailed, unbiased report that documents the extent of the contamination, identifies the moisture source (often condensation from year-round AC creating a cold surface or a minor leak), and outlines the precise remediation protocol. This report is your evidence. In the UAE, landlords are typically responsible for fixing the source of the problem (e.g., repairing a leak, improving insulation), while tenant responsibility for the cleaning can depend on the lease agreement and the cause. Our professional assessment removes ambiguity and protects your security deposit.

The remediation process itself is technical: it involves containment of the affected closet with polyethylene sheeting to prevent spore migration, using HEPA-filtered negative air machines to create negative pressure, the safe removal of contaminated porous materials (e.g., damaged drywall), and the hygienization of all surfaces with EPA-approved antimicrobial agents. Simply cleaning it with bleach is ineffective and can aggravate the problem.

For a definitive solution and to ensure your landlord addresses the root cause, you need a professional assessment. Call us immediately at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com to schedule a comprehensive inspection and get a certified report for your landlord.
