Who should I call for mold behind wardrobe in Jumeirah Park?« Back to Previous Page

My kids have been coughing and I suspect it's because of the black spots I just found behind our bedroom wardrobe in Jumeirah Park. It’s been so humid lately, and the wall feels damp to the touch. What’s the fastest way to get this professionally treated and who should I call first, a cleaning company or a proper mold remediation service?

Call a professional mold remediation service first, not a general cleaning company. This is because the damp wall indicates a moisture problem that needs to be identified and fixed to prevent the mold from returning. A remediation company will have the equipment and expertise to safely contain the area, remove the contaminated materials, and address the underlying humidity issue.

Given the Jumeirah Park location and the current high humidity, this is a common scenario. The dampness is likely due to condensation from your air conditioner or a slight permeability in the external wall, exacerbated by the wardrobe restricting airflow. A proper inspection will determine the exact cause.

Look for a provider that offers a full process: inspection, moisture mapping, safe remediation, and post-clearance testing to verify the space is truly clean. Many reputable firms in Dubai operate their own microbiology labs, which allows for accurate identification of the mold type and verifiable proof that the remediation was successful. This is crucial when health symptoms are involved. They can also provide specific advice on improving room ventilation to manage the humid climate year-round.
