How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site survey and method statement. We walk the premises with your facilities contact, record areas, finishes and access rules, and issue a written method statement and risk assessment.
- Schedule around your operation. Work is planned for early mornings, evenings or overnight so staff, customers and tenants are not disturbed.
- Supervised crews with checklists. A named supervisor runs the same uniformed crew each visit against a room by room checklist.
- Audit and reporting. Each visit is photographed. Retained contracts receive a monthly report covering attendance, audits and any corrective actions.

Questions about facade cleaning
What does facade cleaning include?
Facade cleaning for villas, towers and commercial buildings, removing sand, salt and pollution film from glass, cladding, stone and painted render. The work includes survey of facade materials, height and access; glass, frames and sills washed with purified water; aluminium composite and metal cladding cleaned with pH neutral detergent.
How much does facade cleaning cost in Dubai?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: floor area and the mix of finishes; visit frequency and working hours. 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 facade cleaning in Dubai?
The MELLS provides facade cleaning in 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 58 656 3001.
How long does facade cleaning take?
Typically half a day to a full day for most villas, and set after survey for towers and large buildings. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
How do you reach high areas?
The access method is decided at the site visit. Depending on the building it may be a water fed pole, a mobile platform, the building cradle or rope access, always under a written method statement and risk assessment.
Do you need a permit to work on our building?
Many towers and communities ask for a work permit and supporting documents. This is identified at the site visit, and we prepare the paperwork the building management or developer asks for.
Will pressure washing damage paint or stone?
It can if the pressure is too high, so we keep it low, test a small area first and use cleaners suited to the surface. Acids are kept away from limestone and marble.
Do you clean building facades in Dubai?
Yes. We clean villa elevations, low rise blocks, towers and retail frontages across Dubai. A survey of the materials, height and access comes first.
How often should a facade be cleaned?
Many buildings clean glass facades every three to four months, and properties near the coast or open sand often need it sooner. Stone and render are usually washed once or twice a year. The interval is agreed after the survey.
How do I choose a company for facade cleaning in 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. The MELLS uses its own staff, quotes in writing after a site visit, checks every job (room by room checklist, photographs and a monthly audit) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
How do I prepare for facade cleaning?
Tell us your opening hours, access arrangements and any areas with restricted entry. The schedule is written around them.
Do I need to provide any products or equipment?
No. Products, tools and machines come with the crew. Any materials the job needs, such as paint or parts, are listed in the written quotation.
What if I am not happy with the result?
Tell the supervisor at handover or call us. Anything that fails our check is put right free of charge within 48 hours.
