How to find a professional mold inspector in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

Our family has been living in our Jumeirah Park villa for about three years, but over the last few months, my wife and I have both had constant stuffy noses and a cough that won't go away. I've just pulled out the winter clothes from the storage room under the stairs and found a whole section of sweaters with black spots on them, and the room smells really damp. What's the best way to find a professional mold inspector in Dubai who can check for hidden growth, and what should I expect them to do during the inspection?

Based on your symptoms and the discovery in your Jumeirah Park villa, a professional mold inspection is strongly recommended. The persistent health issues and visible growth indicate a potential systemic problem, common in Dubai due to high ambient humidity and condensation issues from year-round AC operation, which can create ideal conditions for hidden mold growth in cavities, behind walls, and in poorly ventilated spaces like storage rooms.

To find a qualified professional, look for a company certified by the Dubai Municipality and holding internationally recognized credentials such as ACAC (American Council for Accredited Certification) or IICRC (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification). They must use a comprehensive approach. A proper inspection should include a detailed visual assessment of the property, moisture mapping using non-invasive tools like thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to identify hidden dampness, and air quality sampling. This involves collecting air samples from both indoors and outdoors to compare spore counts and types, as well as surface sampling to identify the specific species of mold present. This data is critical for developing an effective remediation protocol.

For a thorough and certified inspection and remediation plan, I recommend contacting Saniservice. Their certified teams are equipped with the latest diagnostic technology and work in full compliance with UAE health and safety regulations.
