What is included
False ceiling and gypsum works for homes, offices and shops: new ceilings, partitions, light coves, access panels and repairs after leaks. In Dubai the ceiling void carries the AC ducts, drain lines and wiring, so most ceiling damage starts with a leak or with a panel cut open for access. We find and stop the cause first, then frame, board, joint and paint so the repair blends with the ceiling around it.
- Room measured corner to corner so the membrane is made to fit
- Aluminium track fixed level around the walls
- Light and grille positions backed with rigid support plates
- Membrane warmed, tensioned and locked into the track
How we carry out stretch ceilings
An aluminium track is fixed to the walls at the finished height, checked by laser. Before the membrane goes up, every downlight, pendant and AC grille gets a rigid backing plate hung from the slab at exactly that level, since the membrane itself carries no weight. The sheet is made to the measured shape of the room. On the day the room is warmed with a heater, the membrane softens, and it is worked into the track with a spatula from the corners inward. As it cools it pulls flat.
The membrane is tough against water and humidity, which suits Dubai bathrooms and pool rooms, but it does not forgive heat or sharp edges. A hot lamp too close will mark it, so fittings must be LED with a thermal ring. A leak above collects in the sheet as a visible bulge instead of soaking through, and the water then has to be drained by a fitter. The site visit looks at the void, the wall condition where the track will fix, and how the AC will be reached afterwards.
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.

Stretch Ceilings in The Greens & The Views: what we plan for
The Greens is a low rise apartment community set in landscaped gardens beside Emirates Golf Club, with courtyards such as Al Ghozlan, Al Samar, Al Thayyal and Al Sidir. The Views next door has mid and high rise buildings around a lake, including Golf Towers, The Fairways, The Links and Panorama. The Hills adds newer residences on the golf course itself.
Mature trees and daily irrigation bring pollen, leaf litter and insects onto balconies and into door tracks. Buildings are around twenty years old, so AC ducts and bathroom extractors hold many years of dust. In older buildings we recommend an AC duct and coil clean together with the deep clean, because the two problems share a cause.
Every building needs a work permit from building management and a service lift booking, which we arrange. Working hours are limited to protect residents.

Questions about stretch ceilings in The Greens & The Views
What does stretch ceilings include?
A stretch ceiling is a thin membrane tensioned into a perimeter track below the slab or old ceiling, giving a flat, jointless face with no taping, sanding or painting. The work includes room measured corner to corner so the membrane is made to fit; aluminium track fixed level around the walls; light and grille positions backed with rigid support plates.
Can AC units be serviced above a stretch ceiling?
Yes, if access is planned. A framed hatch is built into the ceiling below the AC unit and its drain, or the membrane is fitted so one edge can be released from the track by a fitter and put back. We agree the positions with the AC technician before the track goes up.
What happens if water leaks onto it?
The sheet holds the water in a sag instead of letting it through to the floor. Do not pierce it. A fitter releases a corner or a light opening and drains the water into a bucket, and the membrane is warmed again so it returns to flat once the leak is fixed.
How much does stretch ceilings cost in The Greens & The Views?
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.
