COMMON QUESTIONS
Commercial office fitout costs in Dubai depend on the type of fitout, office size, and specification level. A Cat A fitout typically ranges from AED 250 to AED 450 per square foot. Furthermore, a Cat B fitout with full design and furniture ranges from AED 400 to AED 900 per square foot. A premium turnkey office fitout can range from AED 900 to AED 1,800 per square foot and above. Real Express provides detailed, trade-by-trade quotations for all office fitout projects.
Office fitout timelines in Dubai depend on the size and complexity of the project. A small office of 1,000 to 3,000 square feet typically takes 6 to 10 weeks. Furthermore, a medium-sized office of 3,000 to 10,000 square feet typically takes 10 to 18 weeks. Additionally, a large corporate office above 10,000 square feet typically takes 18 to 36 weeks. All timelines include the authority permit and approval process. Real Express always commits to a programme at the start of the project and manages all trades to meet the agreed handover date.
Yes. Real Express manages all Dubai Municipality fitout permit applications, DED commercial licence fitout requirements, Civil Defence NOC applications, and free zone authority fitout submissions as a standard part of every office fit-out project. Specifically, we prepare all required technical drawings, respond to authority queries, and accompany municipality inspectors during site inspections. Consequently, our clients never need to engage directly with any UAE authority during the fitout process.
A Cat A office fitout takes a shell-and-core space and delivers it with raised access flooring, suspended ceilings, installed MEP throughout, perimeter trunking, base-build decoration, and core toilets. Furthermore, a Cat A office is fully serviced but without any tenant-specific design or branding. A Cat B fitout is built on top of a Cat A condition and adds all tenant-specific elements — partitions, reception areas, meeting rooms, breakout spaces, branded feature walls, AV technology, joinery, and furniture — creating a fully operational, branded workplace environment.
Yes. Real Express has extensive experience delivering office fitouts across all major UAE free zones including DIFC, DMCC, JAFZA, Dubai Internet City, Media City, Dubai Silicon Oasis, ADGM, and RAKEZ. Specifically, we are familiar with each free zone authority’s fitout guidelines and approval processes. Furthermore, we manage all free zone design approval submissions and attend pre-construction meetings with technical reviewers.
Yes. Real Express provides a complete furniture supply and installation service as part of our turnkey office fitout offering. Specifically, we supply and install workstations, task chairs, executive desks, and boardroom furniture. Furthermore, reception seating, breakout furniture, locker banks, and storage solutions are all included. We work with leading UAE furniture suppliers and international brands to source the right furniture for your workplace design and budget. Furthermore, our in-house joinery team fabricates all bespoke fixed furniture including reception counters, storage walls, and fitted meeting room units.
Yes. Real Express has extensive experience delivering office refurbishments in occupied environments. Specifically, we design detailed phasing programmes that divide the office into work zones. Consequently, refurbishment works proceed in one area while your team continues to operate in the rest of the office. Works requiring noise or disruption are scheduled outside business hours or during weekends. Our project manager coordinates closely with your facilities team to ensure operational continuity throughout the refurbishment programme.
All Real Express commercial office fitout works are backed by a written workmanship guarantee. Specifically, any defect arising from our installation or materials within the guarantee period is rectified at zero additional cost. Full manufacturer warranties are provided for all materials, systems, and specialist equipment supplied as part of the fitout. Furthermore, all as-built drawings, operation and maintenance manuals, and authority approvals are formally handed over as part of our project completion documentation package.
DEEP EXPERTISE
Effective office space planning is the foundation of every successful commercial office fit-out. Specifically, a well-planned floor plate maximises the number of workstations without creating a cramped environment, provides the right balance of collaborative and focus spaces, and creates intuitive circulation routes that support your team’s daily workflow.
Real Express conducts detailed space utilisation analysis at the outset of every project. This covers headcount planning, desk-sharing ratios, meeting room demand modelling, ancillary space requirements, and future growth provision. Consequently, your office layout is designed not just for day one, but for the next three to five years of your business.
Acoustic performance is one of the most important and most frequently underestimated elements of modern office design in the UAE. Specifically, open-plan offices with hard surfaces — concrete floors, glass partitions, and low ceilings — create excessive background noise levels that significantly impair concentration, communication, and wellbeing.
Real Express addresses acoustic performance through a layered approach. Specifically, we specify acoustic ceiling systems with high noise reduction coefficients and carpet or acoustic vinyl flooring in open-plan areas. Furthermore, acoustic wall panels and glass partitions with acoustic interlayers protect meeting rooms and private offices. Furthermore, HVAC systems are designed to minimise mechanical noise transmission between spaces.
Technology integration is now fundamental to every commercial office fit-out in the UAE. Specifically, modern workplaces require reliable high-speed Wi-Fi coverage throughout and video conferencing capability in all meeting rooms. Additionally, wireless presentation systems, digital signage, and smart building controls for lighting and HVAC are standard requirements.
Real Express coordinates all AV and IT infrastructure as an integrated element of the office fit-out scope. Specifically, we work with specialist AV contractors and IT providers to design and install structured cabling and AV rack systems. Furthermore, display technology and all associated power and data provisions are coordinated as part of our scope. Consequently, your office is technology-ready from day one without any disruptive retro-fitting after handover.
Commercial office fitout costs in the UAE in 2025 are influenced by several key factors. Specifically, the type of fitout (Cat A, Cat B, or turnkey) and the specification level of materials all drive the final cost. Furthermore, the complexity of joinery, technology investment, and the size of the space are also key factors.
As a practical guide: a standard Cat B open-plan office with quality but not premium finishes typically costs AED 400 to AED 650 per square foot all-inclusive. A corporate-grade office with premium materials and bespoke joinery typically ranges from AED 650 to AED 1,100 per square foot. Furthermore, high-specification AV is included within this range. A luxury executive office with marble, custom furniture, and state-of-the-art technology can range from AED 1,100 to AED 2,000 per square foot and above. Real Express provides fully itemised, trade-by-trade quotations so you have complete cost transparency before committing.
