What is included
Interior and exterior painting by our own painters, with surfaces properly prepared, furniture fully protected and wet film thickness checked on every coat. A good paint finish is mostly preparation. Dubai walls move with heat, hairline cracks open at ceiling joints, and coastal air and irrigation mark exterior walls within a few seasons. We repair and prime before we paint, apply the system named in your quotation and leave the home clean enough to move straight back into.
- Phasing plan agreed so staff and customers keep moving
- Work zones screened, with desks, stock and IT covered
- Damage from fixtures, trolleys and chairs repaired and sealed
- Hard wearing washable finish applied to the colour schedule
How we carry out commercial painting
Commercial work starts with a programme, not a paint tin. The premises are divided into zones that can be closed one at a time, and each zone is screened, cleared or covered before preparation. Walls are washed where hands and furniture have marked them, damage is filled and sanded with dust extraction, and patches are sealed. Finish coats are low odour water based products in the sheen the use of the room calls for: washable matt in offices, something tougher in corridors, stairs and back of house.
Offices and shops in Dubai run on recirculated air behind sealed windows, so dust and solvent smell travel through the ducts to people who are nowhere near the work. Painting across a detector, a sprinkler head or a fire door seal is an error that matters to the building. Any permit, method statement or insurance document the landlord or building management asks for is identified at the site visit, and The MELLS prepares the paperwork. The visit also records ceiling types, access times and lift use.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey, colour and written scope. We measure, test the existing coating and agree colours, sheen and the number of coats. The written quotation names the paint system and the scope.
- Protection. Furniture is moved and wrapped, floors are covered edge to edge, and switches, handles and light fittings are masked or removed.
- Surface preparation. Walls are washed, flaking paint is scraped back, cracks are opened and filled, and everything is sanded flat. Damp or salt affected areas are treated before any paint goes on.
- Primer and finish coats. A sealer or primer suited to the substrate is followed by two finish coats. Wet film thickness is checked on every coat.
- Snagging and handover. We inspect in daylight with you, touch up, clean down and hand over a paint schedule listing brand, colour codes and batch numbers for future touch ups.

Commercial Painting in Al Quoz: what we plan for
Al Quoz lies between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road and has two characters. Al Quoz 1 to 4 are residential, with private villas, older houses and some low rise apartment buildings. The four Industrial Areas hold warehouses, workshops, showrooms, factories and staff accommodation. Within them, Alserkal Avenue and the Creative Zone have turned warehouses into galleries, studios, cafes and offices. Al Khail Gate and Al Khail Heights are large apartment communities on the Al Khail Road side.
Industrial dust is the constant here. Cement, stone cutting, vehicle workshops and heavy lorries on open yards put a coarse grey dust in the air, and it settles on roofs, shutters, skylights and AC units. Homes near Sheikh Zayed Road or Al Khail Road get an oily traffic film on top of it. Gallery and studio walls are repainted often and must be flat, so holes are filled, sanded under a raking light and rolled in a dead matt white. Warehouse floors can be recoated with an epoxy or polyurethane system once the slab has been ground and tested for moisture. Villa exteriors are degreased and washed before repainting, because paint does not hold on industrial dust.
Villas and most warehouses are on open streets with direct loading. The apartment communities run a permit and lift booking system, which The MELLS deals with. Galleries, managed warehouse compounds and working factories have their own site rules, confirmed at the site visit.

Questions about commercial painting in Al Quoz
What does commercial painting include?
Commercial painting is planned around trading hours and done in phases, with low odour paints, sealed work zones and a programme agreed with the manager of the premises. The work includes phasing plan agreed so staff and customers keep moving; work zones screened, with desks, stock and IT covered; damage from fixtures, trolleys and chairs repaired and sealed.
Can the business stay open during the painting?
In nearly every case, yes. The premises are phased so one zone is closed while the others work as normal, and the dustiest preparation is timed for the quietest part of the week. The programme shows which area is affected on which day.
What documents does the landlord usually ask for?
It varies by building. Common requests are a work permit application, a method statement, a list of the crew and details of floor and lift protection. We find out what your landlord wants at the site visit and submit it ahead of the start date.
How much does commercial painting cost in Al Quoz?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: wall and ceiling area and ceiling height; condition of the surface and how much repair is needed. 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 commercial painting in Al Quoz?
The MELLS provides commercial painting in Al Quoz, 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 commercial painting take?
Typically agreed at the site visit and planned around your trading hours. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
How long before the paint is fully dry?
Water based emulsion is touch dry in about an hour and can be recoated in around four hours. It reaches full hardness over two to four weeks, so avoid scrubbing new walls in that time.
Do we need to move out while you paint?
No. We work room by room with low odour water based paints, and bedrooms are usable again the same night.
How many coats do you apply?
A primer or sealer where the surface needs it, then two finish coats. Strong colour changes may need a third coat, which is stated in the quotation.
How do your crews get access to Al Quoz?
Villas and most warehouses are on open streets with direct loading. The apartment communities run a permit and lift booking system, which The MELLS deals with. Galleries, managed warehouse compounds and working factories have their own site rules, confirmed at the site visit.
Do you cover Al Khail Gate and Al Khail Heights?
Yes. Both are apartment communities with their own management. A compact team is sent, and the permit and the lift slot are requested before the visit.
How do I choose a company for commercial painting in Al Quoz?
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 (wet film thickness checked on every coat and an adhesion test at handover) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
Can you come to Al Quoz at short notice?
Yes. Crews travel from our Barsha Heights base, and urgent work in Dubai is attended within two hours between 08:00 and 19:00, Monday to Saturday.
