Is dampness in coworking space harmful?« Back to Previous Page

Yes dampness in a coworking space can be harmful. In dubai, the climate is often humid and it's important to keep areas dry to prevent mold growth which can lead to respiratory issues and allergies. The coworking area you mentioned being next to the kitchen where there are water marks on the ceiling and walls sounds like a common spot for moisture intrusion.

Mold spores in the air from this dampness could be triggering your allergy symptoms, especially if you're prone to them. It's not uncommon for such issues to arise after heavy rain in Dubai as well. Other folks around here have had similar experiences with wet areas leading to discomfort and health problems.

For best results it is highly recommended that a professional environmental inspection is done. The company i work for offers mold testing, remediation, and air quality analysis which can be really helpful in identifying the extent of any damage or contamination.
