Absolutely, it’s understandable to be concerned about the remnants of cleaning in your unit. In Dubai and UAE regulations mandate that all buildings must adhere to strict hygiene standards, but sometimes issues can slip through maintenance cracks. It's crucial to take a few steps to ensure your apartment remains clean and safe.

Firstly, don’t stress too much. Most cleaning materials used today are non-toxic and pose minimal risk if handled properly. However, it’s wise to check the types of cleaners that might have been used and their potential effects on health. For instance, some bleach-based products can irritate skin or eyes, so knowing what was used helps you assess any necessary precautions.

If you're worried about remnants in your unit, the best course of action is to inspect it thoroughly. Look for any unusual odors, discoloration, or stains that might indicate cleaning product residue. A simple and effective way to clean surfaces again yourself can ensure peace of mind. Use a solution of water and mild detergent, then wipe with a damp cloth.
