Complete office renovation across Dubai — civil, MEP, joinery, glass partitions, flooring, false ceiling. Phased to keep your team operational. From AED 320/sqft. 80+ offices delivered.
Based on 800+ projects, here's what goes wrong with office renovation — and how we prevent it.
Poor phasing means your team can't work during renovation. We phase night/weekend shifts and section-by-section handover — zero downtime.
70% of office renovations have MEP surprises — ductwork, electrical capacity, fire systems. We survey all MEP before quoting. Fixed price.
Average Dubai office renovation runs 3-6 months late. We deliver in 45-75 days using parallel all-trades-in-house workflow.
Contractors forget structured cabling, server room cooling, UPS. We integrate IT infrastructure from day one — not as afterthought.
