The right
contractors,
every time.

Finding the right contractor for your renovation needs is hard. How do you know which ones can do what you need without trawling the search results, asking your neighbours or trusting a recommendation on a social media group?

They all say they are the most capable with the best prices and highest quality. But how do you know?
We do the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to. Provide us with some of your project details and our ecosystem gets to work. With your project specifics the system identifies the most suitable renovation partners for you. Ones that have the necessary capabilities to deliver our project and have proved it.
You only become Contractors Direct approved once you’ve gone through the due diligence process.

We have a 20+ hour due diligence process that we put all contractors in our ecosystem through. Part of the heavy lifting we do for you is the time it takes to put each contractor through the following:

• Checking their business licence – have they been in business for at least three years in the UAE.
• Checking their insurances – based on what they say they can do (residential, commercial, retail, F&B outlets, warehouses, sports facilities, education facilities etc) do they have the right coverage for their teams and the sites.
• Going on site to a live project with our dedicated project management team to evaluate it. Does it meet our standard, not just the market’s definition of ‘acceptable’.
• Checking previous projects – we reach out to a selection of their previous projects from the last year, to check in with the clients and get an evaluation from them. We visit the site to see how the work is holding up as well as collecting the feedback from the client about how things went during the project. Was the contractor responsive, punctual, realistic, kept to the project milestones, timely delivery of stages and anything else the client deems important to share.

We review them after project completion for our customer as well and if their standards have slipped we remove them from the ecosystem so the shortlist you receive is only ever the most suitable for your project.

When it comes to managing a renovation project so much has to happen before any site action. A lot of people underestimate the amount of activities and time pre construction takes. This is where our project management division – Project People – can help.

Decades of construction and renovation experience on your side of the table helping to manage tender responses, BOQ comparisons, approval applications, drawing revisions, design input. And then the day to day management of your site.

A contractor will provide a project manager from their side, but who will support you when questions are asked and important decisions need to be made? We will.

Peace of mind as we are involved in the project from beginning to end. Our project management offering is designed to ensure your fit-out project goes as smoothly as possible. Dedicated resource looking at every element of your project and on hand to evaluate, co-ordinate and manage all aspects of delivery.

For projects with a value of over AED 1 million we are even able to offer a guarantee. We will save you more on your project than you pay us in project management fees. If we don’t, you keep the difference. Worst case scenario you are cost neutral for a dedicated, experienced project manager on your side of the table throughout the renovation.

I think we can get rid of the other cards? Unless there’s other stages we want to highlight?
