Project snapshot
Client: Holiday home investor · Location: Dubai Marina · Budget band: AED 48,000 – 62,000 · Completed: 5 September 2025
The challenge
- Guest reviews mentioning dated bathroom and kitchen
- Strict tower working hours and lift booking rules
- Need fast turnaround between booking calendars
- Previous cosmetic bathroom works had not solved damp smell
FixUp solution
- Coordinated building access and protection of common corridors
- Full bathroom remodel with membrane rebuild (not re-grout only)
- Kitchen refresh: doors/worktop package, mixer, lighting, splashback
- Neutral, durable finishes for short-term rental wear
- Compressed programme with daily WhatsApp photo updates
Scope of work
Bathroom full remodel + waterproofing
Kitchen cosmetic-to-mid remodel package
Electrical point/lighting tweaks
Painting wet area & kitchen walls
Deep clean handover
Results
- Apartment back on booking calendar within agreed window
- Damp odour eliminated after proper wet-area works
- Brighter kitchen photos improved listing appeal
- Investor retained FixUp for two more Marina units
“They understood holiday-home timelines. The bathroom was rebuilt properly, not patched, and communication through the tower process was excellent.”
