Need mold removal company in Dubai that won't just cover it?« Back to Previous Page
|
The AC in my apartment in Jumeirah seems to be leaking a bit of water onto the wall behind it, and now I’m seeing these black and greenish splotches spreading on the plaster. It’s been getting worse over the last couple of weeks with the humidity. Can anyone recommend a reliable and thorough company for mold removal that won’t just paint over the problem?

What you're describing is a classic scenario in Dubai, where high humidity and constant AC use create perfect conditions for mold growth behind units. The water leak is feeding it, so addressing the source is critical before any removal.
For thorough remediation, look for a company that provides a clear protocol: they should first contain the area to prevent spores spreading, remove the contaminated plaster entirely, not just surface-clean it, use HEPA vacuuming, and treat the area with an EPA-approved antimicrobial. Crucially, they must fix the AC drain line or condensation issue to prevent immediate recurrence. Any reputable firm will offer before-and-after testing from an independent lab to verify the spore count has been reduced to safe levels—this is your proof they didn't just paint over it. In the UAE, many villa and strata management companies have preferred providers who adhere to DHA and Dubai Municipality guidelines, so checking with them can be a good starting point for vetted companies. Be wary of anyone who offers a quick fix without mentioning moisture control or verification testing. |
