Absolutely, you should be concerned about shared area cleaning. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, building regulations mandate that common areas are regularly cleaned and maintained to ensure hygiene and safety for all residents. If a neighboring apartment has reported issues regarding cleaning standards, it's crucial to address this promptly.

Firstly, don’t panic but do take action. Contact your building’s management immediately or reach out to the maintenance team to get detailed information about the extent of the issue. They should provide you with updates on any plans to rectify the situation.

If you feel the cleaning standards are subpar and it’s affecting your unit's hygiene, consider requesting a professional inspection from a company like Saniservice. Their expertise can help determine if there's anything beyond basic maintenance that needs attention. You can call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for their services.

In the meantime, take personal precautions to minimize exposure and maintain your unit’s cleanliness. Regularly clean surfaces in common areas like doors, handles, elevator buttons, and communal spaces where you spend most of your time. Use disinfectant wipes or sprays recommended by public health authorities.

It's also wise to communicate with other residents about the situation. A collective effort can often lead to quicker resolutions as management might be more responsive when multiple complaints arise from different units.

Remember, shared areas are essential for communal living and their cleanliness directly impacts everyone’s well-being. So staying proactive is key. Don’t hesitate to seek professional help if necessary to ensure a healthy living environment.
