Should I hire an air quality pro after renovations?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last month, I noticed a lot of fine particles settling on everything in my living room. My kids have been complaining of itchy throats and sneezing fits, which is unusual this time of year. Given our relatively new apartment that just underwent some renovations, could hiring an indoor air quality professional be cost-effective in the long run to address these concerns?

Absolutely! Hiring an air quality pro after renovations can indeed be cost-effective in the long run. In Dubai/UAE, post-renovation air issues are quite common due to the materials and processes involved. The fine particles you've noticed and your kids' symptoms could be linked to a few potential concerns: dust from construction debris, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) off-gassing, or even mold growth if moisture levels are not controlled properly.

UAE regulations like the Building Code and the Environmental Regulations provide stringent standards for indoor air quality. Ensuring these standards are met can help prevent health issues and comply with local laws. For instance, the Dubai Municipality requires building owners to conduct indoor environmental assessments after significant renovations or new constructions to ensure safety and compliance.

Given your situation, a professional inspection could be crucial. These experts have the knowledge and equipment to thoroughly assess your apartment’s air quality, identify potential sources of contamination, and recommend appropriate remediation strategies. They can also provide guidance on improving ventilation, which is particularly important in the UAE's climate where humidity levels can fluctuate.

Additionally, addressing these issues early can prevent more serious health problems down the line. Children are especially vulnerable to indoor pollutants, so it’s wise to take proactive steps now.

To get started, you might want to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a consultation and quote. They offer comprehensive services tailored to post-renovation environments in Dubai, ensuring that your living space remains healthy and safe for everyone.

Remember, while the initial cost of hiring an expert can seem high, it’s an investment in your family's health and well-being. Don’t hesitate to seek professional help if you have any doubts or concerns about your indoor air quality.
