Should property management fix ceiling water spots?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy storms we had last week, I noticed water spots on the ceiling of our shared laundry room. We’ve lived in this building for two years now, and it seems like no one has done anything about it. Should I hire a professional cleaning service to address this, or is it something that’s typically handled by property management?

Absolutely, property management should address the ceiling water spots in your shared laundry room. In the UAE, including Dubai, buildings are expected to maintain a certain level of quality and functionality. Persistent issues like water spots can lead to further damage if left unattended.
Firstly, it’s important to assess the severity of the situation. If the water spots are minor and appear to be just cosmetic, you may want to wait for property management to make repairs during their routine maintenance schedule. However, given that these have been present since last week's storms and seem persistent, it might indicate a more serious issue like a leak or poor drainage system. In Dubai, building regulations under the Building Control Department (BCD) require properties to be in good condition. Non-compliance can lead to fines for property owners and management. Hence, you should inform your property management about this immediately so they can schedule an inspection and necessary repairs. If you're unsure or if property management isn't acting promptly, consider hiring a professional environmental inspection and remediation service. Here at Saniservice, we specialize in such assessments and can provide a thorough evaluation of the condition. Our services include identifying potential sources of leaks, assessing structural damage, and recommending appropriate remedial measures. Remember to keep an eye on any new developments or changes in the area around your laundry room. If you notice consistent moisture or worsening conditions, it’s crucial to address them quickly to avoid further damage. It's also a good idea to maintain good communication with your property management; if they are unresponsive, escalating the issue to higher authorities or seeking legal advice might be necessary.
