FAJR DESIGN + BUILD ESTIMATOR · DUBAI

Build the project before we price it.

Choose a villa renovation or office fitout to begin. Then work through site, delivery, design, specification and technical scope while the planning range and programme update live.Work through site, delivery, design, specification and technical scope while the planning range and programme update live.

THE DESIGN + BUILD STUDIO

Shape the project. See what is shaping the number.

Choose a villa renovation or office fitout first. Then answer six short project questions to build a live planning range, programme and design + build outline.

Published bands, before you start: villa renovation in Dubai runs AED 420–1,400 per sqft of built-up area, for villa budgets from AED 1M. An office fitout in Dubai starts at AED 350 per sqft for shell-to-occupied — partitions, ceilings, flooring, MEP alterations and joinery; turnkey, with FF&E, IT, AV, automation and appliances included, runs AED 600–850 per sqft.

LIVE PROJECT FEASIBILITY

Your project, decoded before site starts.

Once the brief has enough shape, the estimator moves beyond a headline range. See the cost architecture, end-to-end programme, third-party fee checklist, readiness gaps, assumptions and the design direction Fajr would carry into the next review.

WAITING FOR A PROJECT

Build the first three decisions above.

Choose Villa or Office, confirm the area and set a delivery route. The live feasibility report will then assemble below.

Works planning range—Current Design + Build allowance
Planning reserve—Discuss after survey

Works + reserve view—Before external fees, deposits and VAT
COST ARCHITECTURE

Where the project investment goes.

Move through the wheel to understand each section, its likely value, what sits inside it and the decisions that make it move.

PROJECT PROGRAMME

Brief to handover — one connected programme.

The bars show parallel design, approval, procurement and site activities rather than pretending the project happens one trade at a time.

CLIENT PAYMENT PLAN

When the project is likely to call for payment.

The live works range is staged across the programme using Fajr's usual 10 / 20 / 30 / 30 / 10 milestone structure, so the client can see both expected amount and tentative week.

—
Payment basis—Calculated from the current works planning range, before VAT.
Milestone split10 · 20 · 30 · 30 · 10%Advance → approvals → MEP → civil works → handover
Planning view only. Week numbers move with the live programme and remain subject to final contract milestones, authority / building review periods, client approvals, variations and procurement. External fees, refundable deposits, planning reserve and VAT are excluded from these payment amounts.
OUTSIDE THE WORKS BUDGET

Developer, building + authority costs.

These are deliberately separated from Fajr's construction range so refundable deposits and third-party charges are not hidden inside the works number.

VERIFY BEFORE QUOTE

Exact fees depend on the current developer / building fitout manual and the authority route. Fajr should verify them before a contractual proposal.

PROJECT READINESS

What is known — and what still needs proof.

A stronger brief makes the next estimate sharper. The important unknowns are surfaced rather than buried.

COST OPPORTUNITIES

Where good coordination can protect the budget.

Not value-engineering after the design. These are decisions worth testing before procurement and site work begin.

DESIGN + BUILD THINKING
DESIGN DIRECTION

The visual brief behind the number.

One reference image creates the emotional direction; the material palette explains the language underneath it.

REFERENCE — NOT FINAL DESIGN
COMMERCIAL CLARITY

Assumptions + exclusions.

The estimate should say what it is based on — and what is currently outside it.

NO BLACK BOX
WHAT CHANGES THE NUMBER?

Efficiency on one side. Bespoke on the other.

Two projects with the same floor area can require very different design, coordination and fabrication effort.

PROJECT DRIVERS
THIS IS WHY THE ESTIMATE FEELS DIFFERENT

One project. Five connected disciplines.

Fajr does not hand the design to somebody else and hope it survives the site. The estimator mirrors the way the work moves from an idea to coordinated drawings, procurement and construction.

01
SURVEY + BRIEF

Understand the actual project.

Area, existing condition, priorities, constraints and the commercial target become one starting brief.

OUTPUT · PROJECT BASIS
02
DESIGN

Turn requirements into space.

Planning, concept, materials, joinery and user experience are resolved as one design direction.

OUTPUT · DESIGN INTENT
03
COORDINATE

Make it buildable.

Architecture, MEP, life safety, authority submissions and specialist interfaces are coordinated before site.

OUTPUT · TECHNICAL PACKAGE
04
PROCURE + BUILD

Convert drawings into reality.

Quantities, procurement, site management, trades and quality control are tied back to the approved design.

OUTPUT · BUILT WORK
05
HANDOVER

Close the loop properly.

Snagging, testing, as-builts, warranties and close-out complete the same coordinated project journey.

OUTPUT · READY TO USE
FROM RANGE TO CONTRACT PRICE

The number gets sharper as the design gets resolved.

The online range is the first commercial layer. Survey information, coordinated design, specifications and measured quantities progressively replace allowances with a reviewed project price.

01Outline

Area, scope and finish establish the first planning range.

02Reviewed

Condition, drawings, authority route and priorities are checked by Fajr.

03Quoted

Measured quantities, specifications, allowances and exclusions form the contract price.

DESIGN + BUILD, WITHOUT THE BLACK BOX

You should understand what is shaping the number.

01
No false precision

A planning range is more credible than a single online number.

02
No form before value

You can see your estimate without giving us personal details.

03
No restart with the team

Your choices become a clean project brief for Fajr to review.

READY FOR THE HUMAN REVIEW?

Turn the online range into a project Fajr can actually price.

Send us your drawings, location and target timing. Our design + build team will review the brief, site constraints, approvals and commercial assumptions with you.
