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.
- Walls pressure washed and chalky paint stabilised
- Cracks opened, filled and meshed where they are active
- Alkali resistant primer applied to the full elevation
- Texture sprayed or rolled, then sealed with a top coat
How we carry out exterior texture coating
The elevation is scaffolded or reached from a platform, then pressure washed to remove dust, salts and loose paint. Chalking surfaces are bound with a stabilising primer. Cracks are cut open, filled with an exterior filler and, where they are moving, bridged with mesh. An alkali resistant primer follows. The texture coat, a heavy bodied acrylic carrying fine aggregate, is sprayed through a hopper gun or rolled with a coarse sleeve, one full wall at a time. An elastomeric or pure acrylic top coat finishes it.
West and south faces in Dubai reach very high surface temperatures, and render expands and contracts every day until it cracks at window corners and along the junction of block and concrete. Fine sand then abrades the paint and dust sticks to it. Coating a hot wall causes the texture to skin over and blister, so work follows the shade around the house. Dark colours fade fastest. The site visit checks for hollow render and damp at the base, and identifies any colour approval the master developer asks for.
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.

Exterior Texture Coating in Palm Jumeirah: what we plan for
Palm Jumeirah is two different places for a service crew. The fronds are lined with Garden Homes and Signature Villas, each backing onto a private beach. The trunk and crescent hold apartment buildings such as Shoreline, Golden Mile, Tiara, Oceana and Marina Residences, along with branded residences and hotels.
Salt air reaches every surface on the Palm. It leaves a film on glass, dulls metal and breaks down exterior paint faster than inland. Beach sand is walked indoors daily, and summer humidity encourages mould around AC vents and in bathroom silicone. Exterior paint on the Palm chalks and fades quickly, and metal railings and gates corrode. We wash off salt, treat rust, use alkali resistant primer and apply an exterior system rated for coastal exposure. Inside, we use washable low odour finishes and treat any mould staining with a blocking primer first.
Each frond has its own security gate where contractors are registered against the villa number. Apartment buildings require a work permit from building management and a service lift booking. Exterior work on villas needs approval from the master developer.

Questions about exterior texture coating in Palm Jumeirah
What does exterior texture coating include?
Exterior texture coating puts a thick, flexible acrylic layer over villa render, bridging hairline cracks and shedding rain and irrigation spray while staying breathable. The work includes walls pressure washed and chalky paint stabilised; cracks opened, filled and meshed where they are active; alkali resistant primer applied to the full elevation.
Does a texture coat stop cracks from showing?
It hides and bridges hairline cracks well, because the coating is thick and slightly elastic. Wider or moving cracks must be repaired and meshed first, or they print through within a season. Structural cracks are a separate matter and are pointed out at the site visit.
Can the colour of my villa be changed?
Often it can, within the palette your community allows. Many master developers keep a list of permitted exterior colours and ask for a request before work begins. Whatever approval applies is identified at the site visit and The MELLS prepares the paperwork for it.
How much does exterior texture coating cost in Palm Jumeirah?
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 exterior texture coating in Palm Jumeirah?
The MELLS provides exterior texture coating in Palm Jumeirah, 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 exterior texture coating take?
Usually one to three days, confirmed with the quotation.
How do you protect furniture and floors?
Furniture is moved to the centre of the room and wrapped. Floors are covered edge to edge, and fittings are masked or removed. The crew cleans down every day.
Do you repair cracks and damp patches before painting?
Yes. Cracks are opened, filled and sanded, and damp or salt affected plaster is treated and sealed first. Painting over a defect only hides it for a few months.
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.
How do your crews get access to Palm Jumeirah?
Each frond has its own security gate where contractors are registered against the villa number. Apartment buildings require a work permit from building management and a service lift booking. Exterior work on villas needs approval from the master developer.
How do your crews get onto the fronds?
The resident registers our team with frond security. We send staff names, Emirates ID details and the vehicle plate the day before.
How do I choose a company for exterior texture coating in Palm Jumeirah?
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 Palm Jumeirah at short notice?
