A standard 1 BHK apartment in Dubai costs AED 1,499 to AED 2,500 to paint, fixed in writing before work starts. This covers all walls, ceiling, and minor patch repairs across the bedroom, hall and kitchen. The job is typically completed in a single working day with a 2-person crew using premium emulsion paint (Jotun Lady or Dulux Diamond). The price you see is the price you pay — no extras added on the day.

A senior consultant visits and measures, free of charge. No commitment, no pressure to book.
Any peeling, flaking or visible defect within 12 months — we send a painter back at no cost.

For a standard 1 BHK apartment in Dubai, the fixed-quote price is AED 1,499 to AED 2,500. The typical mid-range is AED 1,799 for a 50-65 sqm 1BR in JLT, Business Bay or Marina with two coats of premium emulsion on walls and ceiling, full prep, and post-clean. Older buildings, high-floor units, or apartments needing extensive patch repair sit at the upper end of the range.
One working day for almost every 1 BHK in Dubai. A 2-person crew arrives at 8-9am, completes prep, two coats and final clean before 5-6pm. The apartment is dry, dust-free and habitable the same evening. Larger 1BR units (above 75 sqm) or those needing ceiling work in a separate visit may take 1.5 days.
AED 1,499 is the honest minimum for a 1 BHK and there are zero hidden fees. The quote is fixed in writing before work starts. If our vendor tries to add charges on the day, we cover the difference from our quality fund. This is the single biggest reason customers come back and refer us.
Premium tier: Jotun Lady (Norwegian, almost odourless), Dulux Diamond (scrubbable), Caparol Premiumweiss (German, ultra-matt). All are low-VOC and safe to re-occupy the same evening. For budget builds, Asian Paints Royale and Berger Silk are options at the lower end of the range.
Yes. The quote includes up to two colours (e.g. one feature wall accent plus standard walls). Additional custom-tinted colours add AED 50-100 per colour for the tinting service. Pick your colour 48 hours before the start date so the supplier can tint and the paint can settle.
Yes. Single room repaints in a 1 BHK start at AED 499 for a half-day visit. Wall touch-ups and patch repairs start at AED 299. No minimum spend — if you only need the bedroom or the hall, we will quote just that.
