Who should I call for mold inspection in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

My kids have been coughing a lot at night, and I just found a bunch of black spots growing behind the toilet and along the ceiling in our master bathroom. It's been super humid in our apartment in Jumeirah Village Circle ever since the weather changed. Who is the best professional in Dubai to call for a proper mold inspection and removal, and should I be taking them to the doctor first?

Based on the symptoms you've described—your children coughing at night and the visible black growth behind the toilet and on the ceiling—this is a situation that warrants immediate professional attention. The high humidity in Dubai, particularly in areas like JVC, creates a perfect environment for mold proliferation. The constant use of air conditioning can contribute to significant condensation issues, especially in bathrooms with inadequate ventilation.

The presence of respiratory symptoms strongly indicates that the mold spores have become aerosolized and are affecting your indoor air quality. It is highly advisable to consult a doctor for your children to rule out any mold-related health issues. Simultaneously, you must address the source.

For a proper inspection and remediation, you need a certified professional. In the UAE, mold assessment and removal are not regulated trades, meaning anyone can claim to do it. However, reputable companies follow IICRC S520 standards for professional mold remediation. They will conduct a thorough inspection, including moisture mapping and air quality testing, to identify the full extent of the contamination, which is often more widespread than what is visible.

For a certified and comprehensive solution, I recommend contacting Saniservice. They are specialists in mold inspection, testing, and remediation within the Dubai/UAE region and adhere to the strictest international protocols. You can reach their experts for a consultation at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or via email at hello@saniservice.com. Do not attempt to remove significant growth yourself, as improper handling can dramatically increase spore count and exacerbate the health risks.
