What is included
A fit out company for villas, apartments, offices and shops, building ceilings, partitions, joinery, flooring and finishes with its own trades. Most fit out delays in Abu Dhabi come from permits, building access rules and trades waiting on each other. We identify the approvals your building, master developer or the authorities ask for at the site visit, prepare that paperwork, and run every trade under one supervisor to a written programme.
- Site survey, measured scope and a written programme
- Permit paperwork prepared for the building, community or authority
- Strip out and removal of old finishes and fittings
- Gypsum ceilings, bulkheads and partitions
- Joinery, wardrobes, doors and wall panelling
- Floor and wall tiling, timber and vinyl flooring
- Kitchen and bathroom renovation, including waterproofing
- Lighting, sockets, plumbing points and AC grilles adjusted to the new layout
- Painting, snagging, a post construction clean and 14 Point Standard sign off
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.

Villa Renovation in Saadiyat Island: what we plan for
Saadiyat Island mixes very different homes within a short drive. Saadiyat Beach Villas and Jawaher sit by the golf course, Saadiyat Lagoons and Saadiyat Reserve are newer villa communities further inland, and the beach side has apartment buildings such as Mamsha Al Saadiyat, Saadiyat Beach Residences and the St Regis Residences. Soho Square and Park View are apartment buildings near the Cultural District.
Along the north shore the wind brings salt and fine beach sand onto every terrace. Inland, golf and garden irrigation keeps humidity up around the villas, and open plots still being built on send dust across the newer communities on windy afternoons. Outdoor condensers near the beach corrode quickly, so coils are washed and fins checked at every visit. Villas also run pool pumps, booster pumps and water heaters that are logged and serviced on a schedule.
Saadiyat villa communities are gated, so the resident registers our crew with security first. Apartment buildings ask for a work permit and a service lift booking. Anything on the exterior needs the master community's approval; we identify this at the site visit and prepare the paperwork asked for.
