Where should I start?
Identify your property and proposed work. A short brief and existing records help determine which approval, design or execution service is relevant.
Do all Dubai properties use the same authority?
No. The location, property records, proposed activity and specific work determine the applicable authorities and management bodies.
Does an NOC replace a building permit?
Not necessarily. Each permission has its own scope and issuer. Confirm the full route for your project.
Can tenants request assistance?
Yes. Include the lease information and explain whether owner consent is available. The authorised applicant and required approvals must be confirmed.
Can you review a returned application?
Share the actual comments, latest drawings and submission history. This allows the remaining work to be assessed against the current record.
Can I upload drawings here?
This website does not upload files. Send an enquiry or message us on WhatsApp, and share relevant drawings in the conversation when appropriate.
How are services priced?
The quote depends on scope, available information, technical inputs and agreed responsibilities. Authority charges and third-party work should be distinguished.
Who decides whether an application is approved?
The relevant issuing body. Consultancy or contracting support does not guarantee an authority decision.
