Costs
What does a renovation cost in Dubai?
The honest answer is that it depends on your home, and any company that quotes a firm price before seeing it is guessing. What we can tell you is exactly how we work out your number, and what makes it go up or down, so there are no surprises later.
How we quote, in short
- Free site visit. One of our engineers comes to the villa or apartment, looks at the actual condition, and talks through what you want.
- An itemized BOQ. You get a quote with every line written out: materials, labour, finishes and any permits. Nothing bundled into a vague allowance.
- You decide line by line. Because it's itemized, you can see what each part costs and add or cut to fit what you have in mind. The number you approve is the number you pay.
- We handle the approvals. If the job needs Dubai Municipality permits or a building NOC, we arrange them and show them as their own lines in the BOQ.
What actually drives the cost
A few things move the number more than anything else. When you read your BOQ, these are what you're looking at.
- The size of the space. More area means more materials and more labour. A guest bathroom and a full villa are different jobs.
- The scope. A cosmetic refresh sits at one end; a full strip-out or a layout change sits at the other.
- The specification you choose. The tiles, the joinery, the fittings, the kitchen units. Standard and premium finishes are both fine; the BOQ shows the difference.
- The condition of what's already there. Older wiring, tired plumbing or failed waterproofing sometimes only shows on the site visit. We flag it then, not halfway through.
- Permits and NOC. If your home or building needs Dubai Municipality approval or an Owners-Association NOC, that's a real line item. We handle the work; the cost is shown, never hidden.
- How many trades are involved. A job that needs tiling, joinery, AC, electrical and painting has more moving parts than a single-trade fix.
Cost by service, what to expect in the conversation
- Villa and apartment renovation. The biggest drivers are scope and finish level. We walk the whole home, agree what's in and what's out, and itemize it room by room.
- Fit-out. Area and specification are the main levers. We quote it as a full scope, not a rough rate, so you can see where the budget goes.
- Kitchen renovation. Cabinets, countertops, plumbing and electrical are the parts that move the number. The site visit tells us what can stay and what needs replacing.
- Bathroom renovation. Waterproofing and tiling drive most of it, and they're where cutting corners costs you later. We quote it done properly.
- AC servicing and repair. Priced by the work in front of us, a service, a repair or a part. It's also one of the things an AMC covers, so you're not paying per call-out.
- Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC). An AMC is a set scope of regular visits and cover for your home. We match the cover to your home and show what's included; no two homes need the same.
Common questions
How much does a villa renovation cost in Dubai?
It depends on the size of the villa, the scope, and the finishes you choose. The accurate way to find out is a free site visit and an itemized BOQ. We'll put a real number on your villa, not a guess.
How much does it cost to renovate a kitchen or bathroom in Dubai?
The main drivers are the size, the units and tiles you pick, and the condition of the existing plumbing and waterproofing. After a quick site visit we give you an itemized quote so you can see every line.
What does a fit-out cost per square foot in Dubai?
Area and specification are the biggest factors. Rather than a rough rate that changes once we see the space, we quote the full scope as an itemized BOQ so the number is real.
How much is AC servicing or an AMC in Dubai?
AC work is quoted by the job in front of us. An AMC is built around your home's size and what it needs, so we scope it on a visit and show you exactly what's covered.
Why don't you list prices on the site?
Because an honest price needs a look at your actual home. Two villas on the same street can need very different work. We'd rather visit, see it, and give you a real itemized number than post a figure that turns out to be wrong.
Do you charge for the site visit or the quote?
No. The site visit and the itemized quote are free, with no obligation.
How do I get an accurate price?
Book a free site visit. One of our engineers will see the home and you'll get an itemized BOQ you can read line by line.
Do you handle Dubai Municipality permits and the building NOC?
Yes. If the job needs them, we arrange the Dubai Municipality approvals and any community or Owners-Association NOC, and show them as their own lines in your quote.
