Technical Service Costs in Dubai — No Hidden Charges

Every price on this page reflects what we actually charge. The exact figure is confirmed in writing before any work begins, so the invoice always matches what you agreed to.

How We Price Technical Services in Dubai

Every property is different. Apartment size, material quality, accessibility, existing damage, surface conditions, and labour requirements all affect the final cost. The prices here are designed to give you a realistic starting point — not an artificially low number that changes once the technician arrives.

What Changes the Price

  • Property size and number of rooms
  • Material selection (standard vs premium)
  • Extent of existing damage or wear
  • Building access and floor level
  • Emergency or out of hours callouts
  • Surface preparation required
  • Number of technicians needed
  • Custom finishes or specialist work

What Never Changes

  • Price is confirmed in writing before work begins
  • No additional labour charges added after the fact
  • No material markup without prior agreement
  • Free site visit to determine exact cost
  • Free advice before you commit to any booking
  • 30 day workmanship warranty on every job
  • Call out fee waived when work proceeds same visit
  • No VAT charged on residential services

Every Quoted Price Includes

There are no add-ons for the basics. These are included in every job we quote, regardless of service type or property size.

AC Maintenance

AC Maintenance and Repair Cost in Dubai

Tile Work

Labour rates below are per square metre and cover subfloor preparation, adhesive, grouting and cleaning. Waterproofing in bathrooms and wet areas is included — it is never charged as an optional add-on.

Tile material cost is separate and varies by brand and format. Herringbone, diagonal and decorative patterns carry a slightly higher rate due to additional cutting time. Outdoor and pool surround tiling quoted after site visit.
Marble Installation

Marble Installation Cost in Dubai

Marble pricing has more variables than other services since material cost varies significantly by origin, rarity and slab format. The table below separates each cost component so you can build an accurate budget before calling.

Pricing Questions — Answered

The questions we get asked before every first booking, answered honestly.

Yes. The site visit and written quotation are completely free, with no obligation to proceed. We visit your property, assess the scope, and give you a fixed price in writing. You decide whether to book, with no pressure either way.
No. The price confirmed before work starts is the price on your invoice. The only exception is if on-site inspection reveals additional scope that was not visible during the site visit, such as hidden subfloor damage under tiles. In that case, we explain what was found, confirm the additional cost, and you decide whether to include it before we proceed.
For electrical work, a call out fee of AED 100 to 200 applies for the initial assessment visit. This is waived when work is confirmed and proceeds the same visit. For painting, tile work, marble and bathroom projects, the site visit is always free. For AC repair and maintenance, there is no separate call out charge — you pay for the service only.
VAT is not charged on standard residential maintenance and renovation services. For larger commercial projects, VAT treatment depends on the contract structure and the client’s registration status. We confirm the tax position clearly before any commercial contract is signed.
Yes. For painting, tiles, marble and bathroom renovations, you can supply your own materials and we quote for labour only. We will advise if the materials you have chosen are not suitable for the specific application, particularly for wet areas, outdoor use or high traffic floors, before starting any work.
For electrical work, an emergency call out fee of AED 300 to 600 applies for urgent out of hours response. For AC repair, the service rates remain the same seven days a week from 7am to 10pm. We do not charge a premium for same day bookings on any of our painting, tile or marble services.
Yes. For property management companies, developers, landlords with multiple units, and commercial clients with ongoing work, we offer annual maintenance contracts and volume pricing. Call or WhatsApp us to discuss what suits your portfolio.
Yes. We are available seven days a week from 7am to 10pm for bookings and site visits. Weekend appointments are available at standard rates for residential work. For office and commercial properties where weekend working avoids disrupting the business, we schedule work accordingly at no additional premium.
