Is professional cleaning worth it for allergens in apartment?« Back to Previous Page

My kids have been coughing and I suspect it might be due to dust and allergens in our apartment. We live in Jumeirah, and with all the construction around, it feels like the air quality has been worse lately. I’ve tried deep cleaning the living room and their bedrooms, but the sneezing and runny noses just won’t go away. I’m considering hiring a professional cleaning service to tackle this, but I’m unsure about the costs and if it really makes a difference. Is it worth it to get a professional deep clean, and what should I expect to pay?

In the context of Dubai's unique environmental challenges, particularly in areas like Jumeirah where construction is rampant, it's understandable that dust and allergens can infiltrate your living space, leading to discomfort for your children. Given your observations of persistent coughing, sneezing, and runny noses, it may indeed be beneficial to consider professional cleaning services that specialize in allergen removal.

Professional cleaning can offer several advantages. Firstly, these services often utilize advanced equipment and cleaning solutions designed to target dust mites, mold spores, pet dander, and other allergens effectively. While your deep cleaning efforts are commendable, professionals have the expertise and tools to reach areas that might be overlooked, such as air ducts, carpets, and upholstery.

In the UAE, particularly under the guidelines from the Dubai Municipality, maintaining indoor air quality is essential, especially in residential buildings. Ensuring your home is free from allergens not only contributes to a healthier environment but also aligns with local regulations regarding health and safety standards.

As for costs, professional cleaning services can vary widely. On average, you might expect to pay anywhere from AED 300 to AED 1,500, depending on the size of your apartment and the extent of cleaning required. It's advisable to get quotes from several reputable companies and inquire about their specific services related to allergen removal. Look for those who use environmentally friendly products, as these can be safer for children and pets.

In more serious cases, or if symptoms persist despite cleaning, I recommend obtaining a professional inspection to identify underlying issues such as mold or poor ventilation. Companies specializing in indoor environmental quality can conduct thorough assessments and provide tailored solutions.

If you're ready to improve your home’s air quality and reduce allergens, consider reaching out to a professional service. For immediate assistance, don't hesitate to call 800-MOLDS or 800-66537, or email hello@saniservice.com. Taking these steps can significantly enhance your family's comfort and health in your living space.
