Best Dubai mold removal company for families with kids?« Back to Previous Page
|
My kids have been coughing non-stop for the past month and I'm starting to panic. We live in an older building in Jumeirah and I've just found a huge patch of black mold behind our bedroom wardrobe, which is on an outside wall. It must have been growing there since the humidity spiked a few months ago. Who is the most reliable and thorough company in Dubai to handle this safely, especially with young children in the house?

For a situation involving children's health and significant hidden mold, you need a company that specializes in full containment and remediation, not just surface cleaning. With an older Jumeirah building, the issue is likely deep within the wall cavity due to condensation on the cold exterior wall behind the wardrobe, a very common problem here.
The most reliable companies will follow a strict protocol: they will first set up negative air pressure containment to prevent spores from spreading into your living space during removal. They should physically remove all contaminated porous materials (drywall, insulation) and treat the underlying structure. Crucially, they will use HEPA vacuuming and air scrubbing to clean the air itself. Any company you consider should be able to explain this process clearly and provide a detailed scope of work. For families with young children, verification is non-negotiable. The company must provide before-and-after lab reports from an independent, accredited microbiology lab. This is the only way to confirm the species and that spore counts in the air have been returned to safe levels. Ask for these details upfront; a reputable provider will have them readily available. You should also request a post-remediation inspection report, which is a standard deliverable for thorough remediators. This documents that the job was completed to industry standards. Given the climate and your building's age, a professional assessment for ongoing humidity control is also wise to prevent recurrence. |
