When should we clean to avoid illness?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed an unusually thick layer of dust on all surfaces of our office space, including the windowsills and even in the corners of the ceiling. It's been a year since we cleaned thoroughly, and now that many employees are returning to work, it feels urgent to address this issue before anyone falls ill. When should we start cleaning to ensure everyone’s health isn’t compromised?

Cleaning your office space promptly is indeed crucial to ensure the well-being of employees and visitors. Given that it's been a year since you've thoroughly cleaned and considering the recent dust storm, it would be wise to get started on the cleaning process as soon as possible. The UAE doesn't have specific regulations mandating regular cleaning intervals, but ensuring a clean environment aligns with general health guidelines.

Firstly, consider hiring professional cleaners who are experienced in handling such situations. In Dubai, you can reach out to Saniservice at 800-MOLDS or email them at hello@saniservice.com for a thorough inspection and cleaning service. Their expertise will help ensure that all surfaces, including windowsills and ceiling corners, are thoroughly cleaned.

It’s also recommended to ventilate the office space before starting the cleaning process. Open windows if weather permits and use air purifiers or ventilation systems to reduce dust particles in the air. This can prevent employees from inhaling dust during the cleaning operation.

Once you have a professional team on board, it's crucial to communicate with them about your expectations. Specify that you need deep cleaning, which includes removing dust from hard-to-reach areas like ceiling corners and behind furniture. Regular maintenance cleaning should also be scheduled more frequently after this thorough clean-up to maintain hygiene standards.

Remember, regular cleaning is essential for maintaining good indoor air quality (IAQ) in Dubai’s climate. With the recent storm, it's especially important now. Keeping dust levels low can help reduce the risk of respiratory issues and allergies among your employees.

In conclusion, act swiftly and don’t delay. Getting a professional inspection and cleaning service will ensure that your office environment is safe and healthy for everyone who uses it. Contact Saniservice today to book an appointment or learn more about their services.
