How this estimate is calculated

The range starts from typical 2026 Dubai prices for the project, then adjusts for quality tier (finishes, brands) and scope (cosmetic vs full gut). Renovation is high-variance, so the range is intentionally wide — confirm DEWA/DM permits and your building or community fit-out rules. Figures come from Bestimate's published renovation cost guides.

Frequently asked questions

How much does renovation cost in Dubai?

As of 2026, a kitchen runs roughly AED 8,000-120,000+, a bathroom AED 8,000-35,000, a full apartment AED 25,000-180,000, and a villa AED 80,000-850,000 depending on spec and scope.

Why is the range so wide?

Renovation cost depends heavily on finishes, brands, structural changes and your building's fit-out rules. Use this for early budgeting and always compare itemised contractor quotes.

Do I need permits?

Structural, facade or MEP changes usually need Dubai Municipality permits and DEWA sign-off, plus building-management or developer NOC in many communities. Confirm before work starts.
