How much to clean dust from renovation clouds?« Back to Previous Page

After the renovation work started next door a couple of months ago, I’ve noticed a persistent cloud of dust settling on our furniture in the living room. It’s really affecting my allergies, and I’m trying to decide whether to hire professionals to deal with it or just clean up myself. How much can this typically cost, and is it worth hiring someone for the long-term benefit?

Cleaning up dust from renovation clouds can be a bit of a headache, especially considering the allergic issues it might cause. In Dubai/UAE, construction activities often lead to an increase in airborne particles and dust, which can indeed settle on your furniture and affect indoor air quality.

The cost of cleaning such dust can vary widely depending on several factors like the extent of the contamination, the size of your living area, and whether you need professional help. For a small-to-medium-sized living room, it could range from AED 200 to AED 1,500 or more for a one-time clean-up. This price can include vacuuming, dusting, and possibly using specialized equipment like HEPA filters.

However, if the dust is persistent, I'd recommend getting in touch with professionals for a thorough inspection. UAE has strict regulations regarding indoor air quality, particularly in large construction projects next to residential areas. If you're experiencing severe issues, it might be wise to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for an assessment.

Professional services can also offer long-term solutions like regular cleaning schedules and the use of dust barriers during renovation works. These measures can significantly reduce your exposure to allergens and improve overall indoor air quality.

In addition, consider investing in air purifiers, which are increasingly common in UAE homes. They can help filter out fine particles that might get through even with careful cleaning.

Remember, while DIY cleaning is cost-effective, it may not be sufficient if the dust levels are high or if you're dealing with severe allergies. Professional services can provide peace of mind and ensure a healthier environment for your family.
