The standard of finish we work to

Kitchens, bathrooms, living spaces, joinery and flooring, shown at the level of finish and detail we build to in Dubai villas and townhouses.

Each image is paired with the detail underneath the finish that decides whether it lasts — the part a proper quotation should account for, and the part you cannot see once the room is done.

These images show the standard of finish we work to. They are not photographs of completed Rawdha Alaqsa projects.

How we work

  • Dubai villas and townhouses onlyWe work on villas and townhouses owned and occupied by the people who commission the work.
  • Written scope before priceThe existing condition, the requested work, and what is deliberately included and excluded — written down before a figure is attached to any of it.
  • Exclusions stated in writingWhat the price deliberately does not cover, visible before you commit rather than after.

Finish and detail

What the finished standard looks like

Space types, finish quality and workmanship standards across the work we take on.

Each caption names the finish or the material shown and then names the detail underneath it that decides whether the finish lasts. That underlying detail is the part a quotation should account for, and the part you cannot see once the room is done.
