What is included
AC ducting sized, fabricated and installed for villas, apartments, offices, shops and restaurants, with joints sealed, ducts insulated and airflow balanced. A ducted AC is only as good as the ductwork hidden above the ceiling. Ducts that are too small are noisy and starve the far rooms, and in Dubai humidity any gap in the insulation sweats and drips onto the ceiling below. Our own technicians work out the airflow each room needs, then fabricate, hang, seal and insulate the ducts and balance the system before handover.
- Site measured and a cutting list drawn up for each run
- Sheet cut, folded and seamed, or panel grooved and glued
- Bends, reducers and take offs made to the measured angles
- Each piece labelled with its run and position before delivery
How we carry out duct fabrication
Fabrication begins with a tape measure in the ceiling void, not with a catalogue. Each run is drawn with its lengths, offsets and changes of size, and a cutting list is made from the drawing. Galvanised sheet is cut, folded and closed with a locked seam, and flanges are fitted to the ends. Pre insulated panel is cut with a grooving tool, folded into a box, then glued and taped along the seam. Bends are made with a generous radius or fitted with turning vanes so the air does not tumble.
Poor fabrication shows up as noise and lost airflow. A sharp square bend with no vanes, or a sudden step down in size, makes the duct rumble and whistle. Thin sheet on a wide duct drums every time the fan starts unless it is cross braced. In Dubai villas the voids are often shallow and crowded with beams, so off the shelf fittings rarely fit and the pieces have to be made to suit. The site visit measures every obstruction before anything is cut.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.

Questions about duct fabrication in Al Safa 2
What does duct fabrication include?
Duct sections, bends, reducers and plenum boxes are cut and formed to site measurements, from galvanised sheet or pre insulated panel, then labelled for each run. The work includes site measured and a cutting list drawn up for each run; sheet cut, folded and seamed, or panel grooved and glued; bends, reducers and take offs made to the measured angles.
Can you make a duct piece to match an existing system?
We can. The existing duct, its flange type and the insulation thickness are measured, and the new section is made to join it. A single reducer, an offset round a beam or a new plenum box for a larger diffuser are all common requests.
What thickness of sheet do you use?
It depends on the width of the duct and the pressure the fan produces. Wider ducts need heavier sheet and stiffening so the sides do not drum. The gauge for each run is listed in the written quotation.
How much does duct fabrication cost in Al Safa 2, Dubai?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size and type of the system or surface; present condition and ease of access. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides duct fabrication in Al Safa 2, Dubai?
The MELLS provides duct fabrication in Al Safa 2, Dubai. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long does duct fabrication take?
Typically one to three days for most villas and fit out units. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Which is better, galvanised steel or pre insulated duct?
Both work well when they are installed properly. Steel is stronger and suits long main runs, plant rooms and exposed ducts. Pre insulated panel is lighter and suits homes with shallow voids. We recommend one after seeing the site.
Does the building need to agree to duct changes?
In towers and malls, changes to the ducts, fire dampers or fresh air system are coordinated with building management. What the building asks for is identified at the site visit, and we prepare the paperwork.
Does the ceiling have to come down?
Not always. Tile ceilings lift out and go back. In a gypsum ceiling we cut openings where the work is and close them afterwards, leaving access panels under the unit and at the dampers.
How do your crews get access to Al Safa 2, Dubai?
These are open neighbourhoods with no community gate, so access is arranged directly with you. We plan parking and equipment unloading before the visit.
There is construction next door. How often should we clean?
Every two to three months while building work continues, with AC filters checked monthly.
How do I choose a company for duct fabrication in Al Safa 2, Dubai?
Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed.
