Who should clean hard-to-reach areas?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last month, I noticed a layer of fine dust had settled on all the blinds and shelves in the living room and bedrooms. It’s been two years since we moved into this apartment, and no one has really addressed cleaning those hard-to-reach areas. Who is responsible for deep cleaning these multi-zone spaces?

Cleaning hard-to-reach areas like the blinds and shelves can be quite challenging. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, it's crucial to maintain a good indoor environmental quality (IEQ) as dust accumulation can affect air quality and health, especially for those with allergies or respiratory issues.

Who should clean these spaces? Well, that really depends on your situation. If you're living alone or in a small household, you might take care of it yourself. However, if it's a shared space like an apartment complex or commercial building, typically the property management company is responsible for deep cleaning and maintenance tasks such as dusting those hard-to-reach areas.

In Dubai and the UAE, there are specific regulations regarding indoor environmental quality. For instance, Article 15 of the Building Code (PAS 2030) mandates that properties should be regularly maintained to ensure a healthy environment for all residents. This includes cleaning and maintaining ventilation systems, which indirectly affects hard-to-reach areas as well.

If you feel your living or working space isn’t meeting these standards, it might be time to call in the professionals.
