In short: ALHUD Technical Services LLC is a renovation company in Abu Dhabi that handles the whole job under one contract — design input, demolition, plumbing, electrical, tiling, gypsum ceilings, joinery, painting and final finishing.

Most renovation stress comes from chasing separate tradesmen and hoping their schedules line up. ALHUD scopes, prices and runs every trade in-house, so nobody is waiting on anybody.

The most common renovation complaint in Abu Dhabi is not poor workmanship — it is the number changing halfway through. That happens when a contractor quotes off a phone call, starts work, then discovers old pipework, failed waterproofing or a wall that carries load.
ALHUD prices after inspection, not before. An engineer measures the property, opens up what needs checking, and writes the findings into the quote. If something genuinely unforeseeable appears behind a wall, you are told before it is touched, with a written cost, and you decide.
Materials, labour, quantities and timeline written down and agreed before any deposit is paid.
A 12-month workmanship warranty, plus manufacturer warranties on materials handed over with your documents.
Three things decide whether a renovation goes well: whether the price holds, whether the trades turn up in the right order, and whether anyone answers the phone afterwards.
Plumbers, electricians, tilers, carpenters, gypsum fixers and painters on the same team. No sub-contract gaps, no lost days between trades.
A written programme with sequence and dates. You know which week the tiling starts and which week the site is handed back.
Scope, materials, payment stages and variations documented. Verbal promises are worth nothing when a dispute starts.
Residential and commercial renovation across Abu Dhabi, from a two-week bathroom refit to a full commercial fit-out handed over ready for inspection.
Suspended ceilings, bulkheads, cove lighting details and partition walls, set out to hide services without losing head height.

Scope and finish level move the number far more than floor area does. The bands below are typical market ranges to help you plan — your own figure is fixed in writing after the site visit.
| Renovation type | Typical scope | Usual duration | Indicative range (AED) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bathroom renovation | Strip-out, waterproofing, tiling, sanitary ware | 1–3 weeks | 18,000 – 45,000 |
| Kitchen renovation | Cabinetry, worktops, MEP rough-in, splashback | 2–4 weeks | 25,000 – 90,000 |
| Apartment refurbishment | Paint, flooring, joinery, wet-area upgrades | 3–6 weeks | 45,000 – 180,000 |
| Full villa renovation | Strip-out, MEP, ceilings, finishes, externals | 4–10 weeks | 150,000 – 600,000+ |
| Office fit-out | Partitions, ceilings, flooring, MEP, finishes | 3–8 weeks | Priced per m² after survey |
Ranges reflect typical Abu Dhabi projects and are for planning only. Material selection — porcelain versus natural stone, local versus imported joinery — is usually the single biggest variable. Request a site visit for a fixed figure.
A renovation that would last fifteen years in a temperate climate can fail here in three. Summer wall temperatures, constant air-conditioning cycling, humidity swings and coastal salt all attack finishes in ways a generic specification never accounts for.
That shapes what ALHUD puts in a quote. Exterior coatings are chosen for UV and salt resistance rather than shade card alone. Wet-area waterproofing is taken up the wall and tested before tiling, because a bathroom above a bedroom is not the place to save two days. Timber joinery is specified with the humidity cycle in mind so doors still close in August. Electrical loads are checked against the actual AC and appliance draw rather than assumed from the existing board.
None of this is exotic. It is ordinary good practice for the Gulf — and it is the difference between a renovation you enjoy and one you repeat.
Four stages, each one closed before the next begins.
An engineer inspects the property, measures up and confirms what is actually possible — usually within 24–48 hours of your call.
An itemised quote covering materials, labour, quantities, payment stages and programme. No verbal estimates.
ALHUD's own crews work the agreed sequence, with a supervisor on site and progress updates as each stage closes.
A joint walkthrough, a written snag list closed before final payment, then a 12-month workmanship warranty.
Crews are based to reach both the island and the mainland communities without long call-out delays. Community access rules differ — a Yas Island townhouse has different working-hour restrictions to a Khalifa City villa, and ALHUD plans around them rather than discovering them on day one.
A look at how ALHUD projects run from the client's side.
"From the site visit to the final coat of paint, everything was scheduled and nothing was left half-finished. The supervisor sent photos at the end of each stage so we always knew where the job stood."
Villa renovation · 6 weeks"The quote didn't change once work started. What we agreed on paper is what we paid, and the building's access rules were handled by ALHUD rather than left to us to sort out."
Apartment refurbishment · 4 weeks"Having one team for plumbing, tiling and paint meant no gaps between trades and no lost days. For a unit we needed re-let quickly, that mattered more than anything else."
Re-let refurbishment · 3 weeks"Waterproofing was redone before the new tiles went in — nobody had suggested that on our last renovation, which is exactly why we ended up renovating the same bathroom twice."

Cost follows scope. A single bathroom refit is a fraction of a full villa renovation, and finish level moves the number more than floor area does. ALHUD issues a fixed, itemised quote after a free site inspection, so the figure you agree to is the figure you pay.
A kitchen or bathroom usually runs one to three weeks. A full villa renovation takes four to ten weeks depending on size, structural changes and finish level. Your timeline is confirmed in writing before work starts, not estimated verbally on site.
Yes. ALHUD works on villas, apartments, offices and retail units across Abu Dhabi — from a single room refresh to a complete strip-out and rebuild. Landlords preparing a unit for re-letting and owners upgrading a family home are both regular clients.
Cosmetic work such as painting, flooring or joinery generally does not. Structural changes, wet-area relocation and major MEP alterations usually require building or community approvals. ALHUD confirms what your specific job needs during the site visit and prepares the paperwork.
Abu Dhabi Island and the mainland, including Khalifa City, Al Reem Island, Al Raha, Yas Island, Saadiyat Island, Al Bateen, Mussafah, Al Shamkha, Baniyas and Mohammed Bin Zayed City. Crews are positioned so a site visit lands within 24 to 48 hours. The full list sits on the Abu Dhabi areas page.
Often yes, if the work is zoned. ALHUD can phase a villa renovation room by room, seal off dust, and keep at least one bathroom and the kitchen usable. Full strip-outs and re-piping are the exception — those are cleaner and faster in an empty property.
Yes. Every completed job carries a 12-month workmanship warranty. Any defect traced back to installation is corrected at no extra cost. Manufacturer warranties on materials such as sanitary ware and appliances run alongside it and are handed over with the documents.
Payments are staged against completed work, not collected upfront. Each stage is signed off before the next release, and the final payment follows the joint walkthrough once snags are closed. Payment stages are written into the quote before any deposit is taken.
