Does rental cleaning cover carpet damp spots?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the rain last month, I noticed a damp spot on the carpet in my living room, which is really concerning. It’s a rental, and I’m not sure if this is something I should address or if it falls under maintenance. How can I tell if the cleaning company they provide covers carpet issues like this?

Cleaning smart is key to maintaining a healthy indoor environment. In the UAE, especially in Dubai, humidity and rain can sometimes cause damp spots on carpets – something that's quite common here due to our climate.
When it comes to addressing carpet damp spots in your rental property, you should definitely not ignore them. While some cleaning services might cover general maintenance, it’s important to know what exactly is included in the agreement with your landlord or rental company. Typically, landlords are responsible for major structural issues and maintenance like roof leaks that could cause water damage. However, carpet damp spots can be tricky. They may seem small but if left untreated they can lead to mold growth which is not only unsightly but also a health hazard. In Dubai, the Health Authority - Dubai has specific guidelines regarding mold prevention and control, so it's crucial to take action early on. If you notice a damp spot on your carpet, the first step would be to inform your landlord or property manager. They may have their own cleaning services that can address such issues as part of routine maintenance. But if they don't or if the issue persists despite initial cleanings, it might be best to seek professional help. I recommend reaching out to a reputable environmental inspection and remediation company like Saniservice for an expert evaluation. Our services cover everything from mold inspections to moisture testing which can pinpoint exactly what's causing those damp spots. We work closely with local regulations such as those set by the Health Authority - Dubai, ensuring that we provide comprehensive solutions.
