Deep cleaning, AC care and mould removal in World Trade Centre Residence, Sheikh Zayed Road

This is one of the towers on Sheikh Zayed Road, with apartments and offices above a podium and a service road at the back for loading. In apartment buildings we arrange the work permit and service lift, protect the corridor and bring compact machines that fit the lift.

Road side properties gather a fine oily dust. It needs a mild degreaser, not just water, and that is what we use. Traffic film needs a degreasing wash before a squeegee will leave glass clear, so road facing windows and balcony doors are done in two passes. Sills, blinds and AC grilles hold the same dark dust and are wiped with damp microfibre, changed often. In the older towers, marble entrance floors and worn bathroom grout are cleaned with a pH neutral product and a soft brush.

Road facing walls carry an oily traffic film that must be washed off or new paint will not grip. Some of these towers are among the older high rises in the city, and their apartments have thick paint, dated textures and ceilings stained by old AC leaks. Stains are sealed with a blocking primer, textured walls are skimmed flat where the client wants a plain finish, and road facing rooms are washed down before any paint goes on. Lift and corridor protection is fitted first.

Every tower has a management office that issues work permits, checks staff details and books the service lift. The MELLS submits those requests. Loading is from the service road behind the towers, never from Sheikh Zayed Road itself. Villas in Zabeel and Al Satwa are on open streets.
