Would professional cleaning be costly and effective?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains last month, I noticed a lot of water damage in the kitchen ceiling, which has left it looking rather unsightly. My neighbor mentioned that professional cleaning services might be necessary to fix it properly. Should I expect the costs to be high, and would it really make a significant difference compared to trying to clean it myself?

Cleaning up water damage from the heavy rains last month can indeed be quite an ordeal. In Dubai and UAE, we've seen several cases where DIY efforts just don't cut it due to the complex nature of the damage. Professional cleaning might seem expensive but considering the potential health risks and long-term issues, it’s often worth every penny.

Firstly, let's talk about the costs. In the UAE, professional cleaning services for water-damaged ceilings can vary depending on the extent of the damage, but generally, it could range from AED 1000 to AED 5000 or more. The cost usually includes a thorough inspection, removal of damaged materials, professional drying techniques, and application of appropriate treatments.

Now, here’s why you might want to consider professional help:
1. Health Risks: Water damage can lead to the growth of mold which is not only unsightly but also potentially harmful to your health. Professional companies are equipped with the right tools and knowledge to handle such situations safely.
2. Structural Damage: Sometimes, what appears as just a water stain on the ceiling could be masking deeper structural issues that require expert attention.
3. Professional Tools & Techniques: Professionals use advanced equipment like dehumidifiers, air scrubbers, and specialized cleaning agents that are not easily accessible to the general public.

Before you decide, do call us at 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a free inspection. We can help assess the damage, provide a quote, and ensure no hidden issues are overlooked. Remember, prevention is better than cure - addressing water damage early prevents costly repairs down the line.

In Dubai, we often see cases where DIY methods just don't suffice. The humidity in our climate makes mold grow fast, so prompt action is key. Professional cleaning not only looks great but also ensures your health and safety are protected.
