Should I clean the dust storm damage myself?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a layer of fine sand and dirt all over our coworking space furniture and surfaces. It’s really starting to build up, especially on the keyboards and monitors. Given that we’ve only been using it for about 6 months, should I consider hiring professionals for thorough cleaning or will a quick DIY clean-up suffice?

Absolutely, the recent dust storm has left its mark and it's understandable that you'd want to get your coworking space back into top shape. Given the situation in dubai, where environmental conditions can be quite challenging at times, a thorough cleaning is definitely recommended. Here are some tips on how to proceed:
Firstly, before diving into any cleaning process, it’s wise to assess the extent of the damage and determine if professional help might be necessary. In the UAE, regulations require that indoor environments maintain certain levels of cleanliness and hygiene, especially in public spaces like coworking areas where many people share common areas. For a DIY clean-up, start by using microfiber cloths or soft brushes to gently remove loose dust from your keyboards and monitors. Avoid using any harsh chemicals as they might damage the surfaces or emit unpleasant odors. A gentle solution of water and mild dish soap can be used if necessary. For more stubborn dirt and sand particles, a vacuum cleaner with an appropriate attachment could come in handy. However, since the storm was quite intense and you’ve only had your space for six months, it might be worth considering professional assistance. Professional cleaners have access to high-quality equipment and often use eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are safe for both the environment and your workspace. Additionally, they can offer a more thorough clean-up than what an individual might manage. If you decide to go the DIY route, be sure to take necessary precautions such as wearing gloves to protect your hands from any residual sand or grit. Also, make it a point to regularly maintain the cleanliness of the area moving forward, perhaps scheduling monthly cleaning sessions to keep dust and debris at bay. Remember, in dubai, maintaining a clean indoor environment is not just about aesthetics but also about health and safety. If you find that the dust has affected your workspace significantly, or if you want peace of mind knowing everything’s up to standard, i’d recommend giving us a call at 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com for a professional inspection and cleaning service. Cleaning up after such an event can be time-consuming but it's important to do so properly. With the right approach, you’ll ensure your coworkers have a comfortable space to work in while also complying with local health and safety standards. |
