The jobs that are individually too small to be worth arranging a specialist for, but collectively make a property feel either cared for or neglected. Most of these can be grouped into one visit, which is usually cheaper than booking them separately.
Handyman Services
The accumulated small jobs, handled in one visit.
Shelves to be hung, a door that will not close properly, a curtain rail coming loose, a cupboard hinge that has given up. Individually none of these justify a callout; together they are an afternoon.
Send us the list. Grouping small jobs into a single visit costs less than arranging each one separately, and it means the whole list is actually done rather than the first two items.
What the job includes
Mounting shelves, mirrors, TVs and fixtures
Furniture assembly
Minor repairs across most trades
Small fixings and adjustments
Typical time on site: Charged by the hour or half-day.
Doors, wardrobes, kitchen units, shelving and bespoke joinery.
Wardrobe doors that no longer sit square, kitchen units with failed hinges or swollen panels, and shelving that needs to fit a space nothing off the shelf will fill.
We handle repairs to existing joinery as well as building new units to fit awkward spaces properly rather than approximately.
What the job includes
Door hanging, adjustment and repair
Wardrobe and cabinet repairs
Kitchen unit installation
Bespoke shelving and storage
Typical time on site: Repairs in a single visit. Bespoke work quoted after measuring.
Interior and exterior painting, with preparation done properly.
How long a paint job lasts is decided almost entirely before any paint is opened. Filling, sanding, cleaning and priming are what separate a finish that holds for years from one that flakes within months — particularly on exterior surfaces exposed to UAE sun.
We prepare surfaces properly, mask and protect the areas we are not painting, and clean up afterwards.
What the job includes
Surface preparation, filling and sanding
Priming where required
Two coats as standard
Masking and floor protection
Clean-up on completion
Typical time on site: One room: 1–2 days. Full apartment: 3–5 days.
Floor and wall tiling, grouting, and minor structural repairs.
Cracked or hollow-sounding tiles usually indicate that the original bedding failed rather than that the tile itself was faulty. Replacing the tile without addressing the substrate produces the same result again.
We handle new tiling, replacement of damaged sections, regrouting, and small masonry and plastering repairs.
What the job includes
Floor and wall tiling
Replacement of cracked or loose tiles
Regrouting and resealing
Minor plaster and masonry repair
Typical time on site: Quoted by area after inspection.
A door that has to be lifted or forced to lock is misaligned, and forcing it accelerates wear on the lock mechanism until it fails entirely — usually at an inconvenient moment.
We realign doors, replace locks and cylinders, fit handles and closers, and repair frames.
Gypsum ceilings, partition walls and concealed service access.
False ceilings conceal ducting, cabling and pipework while providing access to them, and partitions divide space without structural work. Both are common in UAE fit-outs.
We install and repair gypsum ceilings and partitions, including access panels positioned where maintenance will actually need them rather than wherever was convenient to cut.
