Project snapshot

Client: Family of five · Location: Arabian Ranches · Budget band: AED 95,000 – 120,000 · Completed: 18 January 2026

The challenge

  • Closed galley layout disconnected from family living
  • Insufficient pantry storage and poor task lighting
  • Tired worktops and hardware failing under heavy use
  • Wanted modern look without ultra-fragile finishes

FixUp solution

  • Reconfigured layout toward semi-open connection (as structure allowed)
  • New cabinetry package with pantry tall units
  • Engineered worktops, easy-clean splashback
  • Layered lighting + additional power points
  • Plumbing/electrical first-fix aligned to cabinet plan

Scope of work

Strip-out & disposal MEP first-fix & fit-off Cabinetry & worktops Splashback & flooring interface Lighting & switches Appliances coordination (client-supplied)

Results

  • Kitchen became the social centre of the home
  • Storage capacity significantly increased
  • Durable finishes selected for kids and heavy cooking
  • Completed on agreed programme with snag list closed in 5 days

“Practical design, not just pretty Instagram shots. The pantry wall alone changed our daily routine. FixUp managed mess better than we expected with kids at home.”
