What's usually the biggest cost in a fit-out?

Bespoke joinery (wardrobes, kitchens, panelling and counters) is often the largest single line item, which is why building it in-house matters.

How Much Does an Interior Fit-Out Cost in Dubai?

“How much will my fit-out cost?” is the first question every client asks, and the honest answer is: it depends on what you’re building and how it’s finished. This guide breaks down what actually drives interior fit-out cost in Dubai so you can budget realistically before you commit.

What drives the cost of a fit-out

Four things move the number more than anything else:

Area: cost scales with the square footage being fitted out.
Finish level: standard laminate and paint cost far less than veneer, natural stone and bespoke joinery.
Scope: a cosmetic refresh is a fraction of a full turnkey build with MEP, joinery and stone.
Joinery: bespoke cabinetry, wardrobes and wall panelling are often the single biggest line item.

How cost differs by space type

A luxury villa with bespoke wardrobes and stone finishes sits at a very different price point to a simple office refresh. Restaurants carry the added cost of bars, banquette seating and commercial kitchens; retail depends heavily on shopfront and display joinery. Because every space is different, a fixed “per square foot” figure is misleading. The finish and joinery content decide the real cost.

Why in-house joinery keeps costs predictable

Most fit-out firms outsource joinery to a third-party workshop, adding a margin and a scheduling risk. Because Saira makes all joinery in its own 20,000 sq ft factory in Jebel Ali, there is no middleman markup and no hand-off delay, which keeps both the budget and the timeline under control.
