How to get a proper mold inspection in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page
|
The AC in our villa in Jumeirah Park has been running constantly, but we keep finding small black spots on the leather sofa and behind the bedroom curtains. We had a small leak from the upstairs bathroom a couple of months ago that was fixed, but I'm worried there's hidden mold now, especially with the humidity. What's the best way to get a proper mold inspection done here to find the source and not just clean the surface spots?

Based on your description of the recurring black spots and the history of a water leak in your Jumeirah Park villa, a professional mold inspection is strongly advised. Surface cleaning is a temporary fix; the core issue is likely hidden moisture within your walls, ceiling voids, or HVAC system, exacerbated by Dubai's high humidity and constant AC use, which creates ideal conditions for condensation and mold growth.
A proper inspection, as we conduct at Saniservice, is a forensic process. It begins with a comprehensive visual assessment using borescopes to look inside wall cavities and behind fixtures. Crucially, we use a professional-grade moisture meter and thermal imaging camera to identify hidden dampness that is invisible to the naked eye. To confirm the type and concentration of mold spores in the air you're breathing, we perform air quality sampling and surface swab tests. This lab analysis is vital, as it identifies the specific species (e.g., the more hazardous Stachybotrys or common Aspergillus) and guides the remediation protocol. Do not settle for a simple visual check. The goal is to locate the moisture source—whether it’s residual dampness from the leak, an AC drain pan overflow, or poor insulation causing condensation. For a definitive diagnosis and a plan to solve the problem at its root, you need a certified expert. Call Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com to schedule a thorough inspection. Our certified technicians will provide a detailed report and a scope of work to ensure your villa is safe and mold-free. |
