Who should I call for mold removal in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

Based on the symptoms you've described—coughing children and visible black spots with a damp wall—this is a situation that requires immediate professional attention. The dampness indicates an active moisture source, which is the primary driver for mold growth. In Dubai's climate, this is commonly caused by a combination of high external humidity, condensation from air conditioning systems, or concealed plumbing leaks.

You should call a certified mold inspection and remediation company. The best companies in Dubai follow international protocols (IICRC S520) and utilize advanced tools like thermal imaging cameras to identify the moisture source and borescopes to inspect inside wall cavities. They will conduct professional air and surface sampling to identify the specific mold species and spore concentration levels, which is critical for determining the correct remediation strategy and for assessing potential health risks.

Regarding your landlord, UAE law (Dubai Rental Law) places the responsibility for maintaining the property's structure, including addressing issues like leaks that lead to dampness and mold, squarely on the landlord. You should notify them in writing of the issue, as it is a matter of habitability. A professional report from a company like ours is often the key evidence needed to ensure the landlord addresses the problem promptly and effectively.
