How to get a mold inspection in Dubai for walls?« Back to Previous Page
|
My kids have been coughing for a couple of weeks, and I just found a patch of black mold behind the wardrobe in our master bedroom in our Mirdif villa. We had a small leak from the upstairs AC unit about a month ago that we thought was fixed. What's the best way to get a proper mold inspection done here to make sure it hasn't spread inside the walls?

Given the history of an AC leak in your Mirdif villa and the visible black mold, a comprehensive professional inspection is strongly advised. In Dubai's humid climate, AC condensation is a primary cause of hidden mold growth inside wall cavities and insulation, which can significantly impact indoor air quality and health, as your children's symptoms suggest.
A proper inspection is far more than a visual check. It involves a combination of advanced techniques. Our certified inspectors use borescopes to look inside wall cavities without excessive damage, thermal imaging cameras to identify hidden moisture pockets caused by the previous leak, and precise air and surface sampling. This sampling is critical; it identifies the specific species of mold (e.g., toxic Stachybotrys vs. less harmful Cladosporium) and quantifies the spore levels in the air your family is breathing. This data forms the basis for a compliant remediation plan. Attempting a DIY inspection is not recommended. Disturbing the mold colony without proper containment can cause a massive release of spores throughout your home. Furthermore, Dubai municipalities have specific regulations regarding environmental health and safety in villas that professionals are trained to adhere to. For a definitive assessment and to ensure the health of your family, you need a specialist. Contact Saniservice for a full-scale inspection.
