Professional mold removal needed for Jumeirah apartment? Cost?« Back to Previous Page

My kids have been coughing and I suspect it might be from the black spots I just found behind our bedroom wardrobe in our Jumeirah apartment. It’s a large area that’s been hidden for who knows how long. I’m worried about doing it myself and making it worse or missing something. For a job like this, should I just call in a professional mold removal company, and what’s a realistic cost I should expect in Dubai for treating a whole wall?

Based on your description, this is a serious situation that absolutely requires professional intervention. The combination of the hidden location, the large area, and the fact that your children are exhibiting respiratory symptoms like coughing means this is not a DIY project. Disturbing the mold yourself can release a massive amount of spores into the air, significantly worsening the indoor air quality and potentially exacerbating health issues.

In the Dubai climate, where high humidity and constant AC use create ideal conditions for mold growth behind furniture and on cold walls (a phenomenon known as condensation), a proper remediation protocol is critical. A certified professional company, like Saniservice, will not only remove the visible growth but also identify and address the underlying moisture source to prevent recurrence—a step often missed in amateur attempts.

The process involves containment of the area with negative air pressure, professional-grade HEPA filtration to capture airborne spores, safe removal of contaminated materials, and a thorough hygienization of the entire space.

For a whole wall treatment in a Jumeirah apartment, the cost can vary significantly based on the extent of damage behind the surface. You should expect a realistic investment starting from AED 2,500 and potentially going higher if structural materials are affected and require replacement. This is a justified cost for your family's health and the integrity of your property.

Given the health symptoms present, I strongly recommend you call for a professional inspection immediately. Contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for a detailed assessment and quote.
