Quick Answer
A villa extension in Dubai starts with a BUA and plot-coverage feasibility check — how much you're allowed to build — then community and Dubai Municipality NOCs, structural tie-in to the existing villa, and the build. First Unicorn does all of it on a fixed price from a real BOQ, for ground-floor rooms, first-floor additions, majlis, kitchens and full wings.
