Who should I call for reliable mold inspection?« Back to Previous Page
|
Our AC unit in the master bedroom has been leaking a little for the past couple of weeks, and now I’ve spotted small black spots growing on the corner of the wall behind the curtain. My toddler sleeps in here with us and has started having a runny nose and a cough that just won’t clear up, which is making me really worried. Who can I call for a reliable and thorough mold inspection to check if this is the cause and how to fix it properly?

Based on the symptoms you've described—especially the persistent respiratory issues in your toddler—this is a situation that warrants immediate professional attention. In the UAE's climate, AC condensation leaks are a primary cause of indoor mold growth, and Stachybotrys chartarum (the "black mold" you're likely seeing) is a known irritant.
For a reliable inspection, you must call a certified environmental consultant or a specialized mold remediation company. Look for firms that use UAE-Specific methodologies like a comprehensive Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) assessment. This isn't a job for a general handyman. A proper inspection should include moisture mapping with thermal imaging cameras, borescope inspections inside the wall cavity, and most critically, air and surface sampling sent to an accredited laboratory (like ESMA or DAC accredited) for species identification and spore count analysis. This lab report is your legal document and is essential for any insurance claims or tenant-landlord discussions, as it provides definitive proof of the contamination levels. Given the health of your child is involved, do not delay. For a thorough and certified inspection that follows all UAE guidelines, I strongly recommend you call our team directly. We can dispatch a certified technician to your home in Dubai to conduct a full assessment and provide a clear remediation protocol.
