What's the cost to remove mold in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

Based on your description of a recurring AC leak leading to dark, fuzzy patches spreading on the wall, this is a classic case of mold growth, likely exacerbated by Dubai's high humidity and constant AC operation. The condensation from the leaking unit provides the perfect moisture source for mold, particularly the concerning Stachybotrys chartarum (often called "black mold") or Aspergillus species common here.

For a small bedroom wall area (e.g., 1-2 square meters) behind a wardrobe, professional mold remediation in Dubai typically ranges from AED 1,500 to AED 3,500. This cost is not just for removal; it includes a critical initial inspection and air quality testing (approx. AED 800-1,200) to accurately identify the mold type and spore concentration, a comprehensive remediation plan to safely remove the contaminated materials and treat the area with EPA-approved biocides, and finally, post-remediation verification testing to ensure the space is safe.

Using bleach is strongly discouraged. It is ineffective on porous surfaces like drywall, as it only bleaches the surface mold without addressing the roots. More critically, it can aggravate the spores, releasing them into the air and worsening indoor air quality and potential health risks. DIY attempts often lead to cross-contamination and incomplete removal, causing the problem to return.

Given the ongoing moisture source and the spread you've described, this is a serious case requiring professional intervention.
