Do I need to do all deep cleaning?« Back to Previous Page

Absolutely, it's quite normal to need some deep cleaning after the intense heatwave we've experienced. In Dubai and the UAE generally, humidity levels can soar during summer, leading to an increase in dust and cobwebs even if you've cleaned recently.

Firstly, you should be aware of local regulations regarding maintenance responsibilities. Typically, a landlord is responsible for ensuring that the building's structural and safety features are maintained, which could include aspects like HVAC systems and fire escapes. However, day-to-day cleaning and upkeep are usually the tenant’s responsibility.

Given the recent conditions, it might indeed feel like it's been months since you last cleaned those blinds in your bedroom and noticed a layer of dust that seems unusual. This is not uncommon during extremely hot weather as increased temperatures can cause dust to settle more easily on surfaces.

For thorough cleaning, start with the easy stuff—dust off furniture and clean windowsills using a damp cloth or microfiber duster. Then move onto areas like blinds, which might need vacuuming or even gentle scrubbing if they're dirty enough. For the living room's increased cobwebs, you can use a pressurized water spray or a good spider web removal solution to tackle them effectively.

If you find that your cleaning efforts are not yielding satisfactory results and dust is still an issue, it might be wise to consider professional assistance. In the UAE, companies like Saniservice are well-regarded for their expertise in environmental inspections and remediation services. You can call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a consultation.

Moreover, with air conditioning running constantly during these hot months, it’s crucial to ensure that the filters are regularly cleaned to maintain efficiency and prevent dust from recirculating into your home. Consider setting up a routine where you clean your AC filter every 1-2 weeks depending on usage.

Remember, while summer can bring challenges, maintaining good indoor air quality is key not just for comfort but also for overall health. So do keep those blinds and windows clean!
