How much does professional cleaning cost in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

The AC in my apartment seems to be struggling with all this dust and pollen from the recent sandstorms, and my living room carpet is looking pretty grimy after months of outdoor play. I’m considering whether it’s worth hiring professionals or trying to do it myself, but I have no idea about the costs involved. How much does professional cleaning typically cost in Dubai for a small apartment like mine?

Professional cleaning costs in Dubai can vary significantly depending on the size of your apartment, the type of service you require and the expertise of the company. For a small apartment like yours, prices might start from AED 1000 for basic cleaning to around AED 2500 for more comprehensive services that include deep cleaning and stain removal.

When considering whether to hire professionals or do it yourself, there are a few points worth noting. Firstly, the UAE has specific regulations regarding indoor air quality which can be violated by poor cleaning practices. Ensure any cleaning service you choose adheres to these standards to maintain a healthy living environment.

For your situation with dust and pollen accumulation from recent sandstorms, and the grime on your carpet due to outdoor play, professional cleaning is highly recommended. They have the necessary tools and expertise to tackle tough stains and allergens effectively. A reputable company like Saniservice can provide thorough cleaning services including upholstery cleaning for carpets.

The cost of a professional clean can be influenced by several factors:
1. Service Scope: Basic cleaning might only involve dusting, vacuuming, and sanitizing surfaces; whereas deep cleaning could include shampooing carpets, scrubbing grout, and disinfecting hard-to-reach areas.
2. Apartment Size: The square footage of your living space will affect the time required for cleaning and thus the overall cost.
3. Frequency of Cleaning: Regular maintenance might be cheaper than one-off deep cleans.

To give you a clearer idea, here’s what to expect:
• Basic Carpet Cleaning: AED 1000 - 2000
• Deep Carpet Shampooing: AED 2500 - 4000
• Surface Dust and Sanitizing: AED 800 - 1500

It's worth checking with a few companies for quotes to ensure you get the best deal. Additionally, consider asking about any ongoing maintenance plans or subscription services that might offer regular cleaning at a lower cost per visit.

If you're unsure about the condition of your air quality after such sandstorms, it would be wise to also inquire if they offer professional indoor air quality assessments and remediation services. Saniservice can help with this too by conducting tests for mold, allergens, and other pollutants that could impact your health in the long term.

Remember, investing in professional cleaning now can save you from potential health issues down the line and ensure a more pleasant living environment for you and your family.
