Project snapshot
Client: Growing family · Location: Dubai Hills · Budget band: AED 180,000 – 230,000 · Completed: 20 February 2026
The challenge
- Budget could not stretch to full villa gut renovation
- Kitchen storage and workflow no longer fit family life
- Two bathrooms outdated; one had grout/damp concerns
- Needed phased works so children could stay in the home
FixUp solution
- Prioritised kitchen + two bathrooms + living/dining paint package
- Phased programme: wet areas first, then kitchen, then paint
- Gypsum bulkheads for cleaner lighting in living zone
- Single project manager for multi-trade coordination
- Weekend planning around family schedule where possible
Scope of work
Kitchen remodel (cabinets, tops, splashback, MEP adjustments)
2 × bathroom renovations
Living/dining painting
Feature gypsum bulkhead
Electrical lighting updates
Protection, cleaning, snagging
Results
- Open, brighter kitchen with improved storage
- Two fully renovated bathrooms with waterproofing included
- Living spaces repainted with detailed gypsum finish
- Roadmap created for Phase 2 (bedrooms & exterior) later in 2026
“We got maximum impact for the budget. FixUp helped us sequence the right rooms first instead of wasting money on cosmetic work while bathrooms still leaked risk.”
