Should I hire professionals or clean dust from sandstorms DIY?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorm that hit Dubai, I’ve noticed a layer of dust on all surfaces in my second-floor apartment, even though we haven’t had any visitors. The furniture and even the curtains are visibly dirty. Given how frequently these storms occur, should I consider hiring professionals to clean regularly or is there an effective DIY method?

Absolutely, you should consider both options based on your situation. After the recent sandstorm in Dubai, it's pretty common to see a layer of dust settle onto surfaces. In my experience, given how frequently such storms occur and considering the fine particulate matter involved, it might be wise to involve professionals for regular cleaning.

DIY methods can work but they require consistent effort and the right tools. Here are some steps you can take yourself:

Firstly, use a damp cloth or a microfiber duster to gently remove dust from surfaces like furniture and curtains. Avoid using harsh chemicals as these could damage fabrics or leave behind residues. For large areas, a HEPA vacuum cleaner is highly effective in capturing fine particles.

However, if you find yourself cleaning frequently due to the storms and the layers of dust are just too much to handle on your own, it might be more practical to hire professionals. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice offer thorough indoor air quality assessments and cleaning services that can help maintain a cleaner environment in your home or office.

Saniservice's team is experienced with handling desert dust and can provide tailored solutions for regular maintenance. They use advanced techniques and equipment that ensure a deep clean without causing damage to your belongings. If you decide to go this route, it might be beneficial to have them conduct an initial inspection to understand the extent of the dust accumulation and recommend a suitable cleaning schedule.

Lastly, consider contacting Saniservice at 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com for more information on their services. They can provide you with a quote based on your specific needs.

Remember, while DIY methods are cost-effective, professional help can save time and ensure the longevity of your furnishings and fabrics.
