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.
- Floor seating, cushions and carpets removed or wrapped in place
- Gypsum cornices and mouldings dusted, repaired and caulked
- Ceiling details brushed by hand and flat areas rolled
- Gold or metallic highlights applied last with a fine brush
How we carry out majlis painting
The majlis is usually the most decorated room in a villa, with deep gypsum cornices, coffered ceilings and wall frames. Seating and carpets are taken out or wrapped, and chandeliers are bagged. Mouldings are dusted with a soft brush, chipped edges are rebuilt in gypsum filler and open joints are caulked. Flat areas are rolled, and every profile is painted by brush so the detail is not clogged. Metallic or contrasting colours on the mouldings go on last, once the base coats have dried through.
Too much paint is the common fault. After several repaints the sharp edges of a cornice fill in and the ornament looks soft, and a roller dragged over a moulding leaves fat edges and misses. Incense and bakhoor smoke also leave a brown film on ceilings that bleeds through fresh emulsion unless it is washed and sealed. The site visit records the ceiling height for access, the condition of the plaster detail, any cracks where the cornice meets the wall and whether the existing gold work is paint or leaf.
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.

Majlis Painting in Palm Jebel Ali: what we plan for
Palm Jebel Ali is Nakheel's second palm shaped island, off the coast at Jebel Ali and larger than Palm Jumeirah. Its fronds are given over to beachfront villas, released in collections such as The Beach Collection and The Coral Collection, with the first homes expected to be handed over from 2027.
Every frond faces open sea, so glass, railings, stone and outdoor AC units will carry a salt film within days, and the beaches send fine sand onto terraces and into door tracks. New homes also hold construction dust for months after handover. New villas are painted to the developer's specification and finish. Owners who want a different colour or a richer finish usually repaint before moving in, while the house is empty. Exterior colours follow the community palette.
Access to the island and the fronds is controlled. Contractor visits are registered by the owner with the community, and early on the developer's handover team may set the dates for inspections and move in work.

Questions about majlis painting in Palm Jebel Ali
What does majlis painting include?
A majlis is painted around its cornices, ceiling roses and wall panelling, with decorative plaster picked out by brush and carpets and floor seating lifted or fully covered first. The work includes floor seating, cushions and carpets removed or wrapped in place; gypsum cornices and mouldings dusted, repaired and caulked; ceiling details brushed by hand and flat areas rolled.
Can the chandeliers stay up during the work?
They can. Each fitting is switched off, wrapped in a dust bag and worked around from a tower or platform. Very large or fragile pieces are better lowered by an electrician first, and that is agreed at the site visit so nobody is handling crystal on the day.
How is the gold detailing on the cornice redone?
Existing metallic paint is cleaned, keyed lightly and repainted with a fine brush in a matching metallic acrylic, one profile at a time. Real leaf is a different trade and is left untouched or masked. We test a short hidden length first so you can agree the tone.
How much does majlis painting cost in Palm Jebel Ali?
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 majlis painting in Palm Jebel Ali?
The MELLS provides majlis painting in Palm Jebel Ali, 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 majlis painting take?
Usually one to three days, 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 Palm Jebel Ali?
Access to the island and the fronds is controlled. Contractor visits are registered by the owner with the community, and early on the developer's handover team may set the dates for inspections and move in work.
What should we book after handover?
A post handover deep clean and an AC grille and coil clean before the furniture arrives. Painting upgrades are easiest at the same stage.
How do I choose a company for majlis painting in Palm Jebel Ali?
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.
