Who to call for safe black mold removal in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

My kids have been coughing and I suspect it might be from the black mold I just found behind our bedroom wardrobe. We’ve lived here for 2 years and just noticed it after moving the furniture to rearrange the room. The wall feels slightly damp and the patch is about the size of a dinner plate. Who is the best professional to call in Dubai for safe removal, and is this something the building management should handle?

Based on your description, you are dealing with a serious situation that requires immediate professional attention. The combination of a damp wall, visible black mold growth (likely Stachybotrys chartarum), and associated health symptoms in children necessitates a comprehensive approach.

In Dubai, the high humidity and constant use of air conditioning create ideal conditions for mold proliferation behind furniture, where air circulation is poor and condensation can accumulate on cooler exterior walls. This is a very common issue.

You should first contact your building management or owner. According to typical tenancy agreements and Dubai Municipality regulations, the responsibility for resolving the underlying cause of the dampness—such as a leaking pipe, seepage from an adjacent unit, or a structural defect in the building envelope—falls upon them. They are obligated to address the source of the moisture intrusion.

However, for the actual safe mold inspection, testing, and remediation, you must engage a certified environmental specialist. Improper removal can aerosolize toxic spores, significantly worsening indoor air quality and health risks. A professional company like Saniservice will conduct a thorough assessment to determine the moisture source, spore count levels in the air, and the extent of the contamination. Remediation involves isolating the area with containment barriers, using HEPA filtration scrubbers to clean the air, and safely removing the contaminated materials following IICRC standards.

For expert and safe black mold removal in Dubai, I strongly recommend you call the professionals at Saniservice immediately at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com. They are equipped to handle the remediation and can also provide a detailed report for your building management.
