How much does sandstorm cleanup cost?« Back to Previous Page

After the sandstorm two weeks ago, the living room windows are still covered in a fine layer of grit, making it hard to breathe and see outside. My wife thinks we should get professionals to clean but I’m worried about the cost. Have any of you dealt with cleaning up after a sandstorm? How much did it end up costing you, and was it worth it?

Cleaning up after a sandstorm can be quite the task, especially considering the fine layer of grit that can coat your living room windows. In Dubai and the UAE, regulations are in place to ensure that buildings meet certain standards for indoor air quality and dust control. However, when dealing with post-sandstorm debris, it's often more efficient and effective to engage professionals.

The cost of sandstorm cleanup can vary widely depending on the extent of damage, the size of your property, and the specific services required. Generally, a small living room might require a few hours of cleaning work, which could range from AED 150 to AED 300 for professional assistance. Larger homes or commercial properties would naturally see higher costs due to the increased labor and materials needed.

It's important to remember that while DIY cleanup is an option, it may not be as thorough or efficient as professional cleaning. Professionals have the right equipment and experience to ensure that all grit is removed without causing damage to your property. They can also offer advice on how to prevent future sandstorms from affecting your home so much.

Additionally, consider the health benefits of having a professional clean. The fine particulates present in sandstorm residue can irritate respiratory systems, especially during winter months when such storms are more common. Engaging an expert can help maintain better indoor air quality and protect you and your family's health.

If you do decide to go with professionals, companies like Saniservice offer comprehensive cleaning services. Their number is 800-MOLDS or 800-66537; alternatively, you can contact them via email at hello@saniservice.com for a quote and further details. Remember, the cost of professional cleaning might be worth it considering the potential health benefits and the peace of mind that comes with having your home restored to its best condition.

Remember, in Dubai, it's not uncommon for sandstorms to occur, so being prepared can save you both time and money in the long run.
