What's included

Everything this service covers

Office and hotel entrance landscaping

Compound and community common areas

Rooftop and podium gardens

Maintenance contract options, with price and scope set out per site in the written quote

A proposal that states how work follows your site's induction and permit requirements

Programme and reporting format agreed in the contract

And what it does not cover

Scope gaps are where landscaping quotes turn into arguments. These items are genuinely outside this service, so you can price them properly rather than discover them halfway through.

  • Third-party consultant and authority fees, which are listed as separate lines on the itemised written quote.
  • Irrigation mains and infrastructure outside the demised area you control.
  • Civil and structural works. On podium and rooftop schemes the waterproofing and structural capacity are the building owner's scope, and the landscape build-up is designed to work within them.
  • Snagging of defects arising from works completed by others before we started on site.

Options & materials

OptionBest forWhat to know
Design and build New developments and refurbishments Design and installation under one proposal, with phased delivery planned to keep entrances and operations open. The proposal names what is included and what is not.
Maintenance contract Established properties Scheduled visits, irrigation management and seasonal works. The written quote sets the price per site and the contract states the reporting frequency.
Refresh programmes Tired entrances and podiums Targeted upgrades: soil replacement, specimen planting and lighting that reset the first impression without a full rebuild.
Local know-how

Planning for Dubai's commercial realities

Commercial sites here run on permits and paperwork. Expect to be asked for site induction, permit-to-work and contractor documentation, and the proposal should state how work follows your site's induction and permit requirements, including how noisy or dusty work is scheduled outside your peak hours where the programme allows.

Podium and rooftop landscapes bring weight limits, waterproofing membranes and wind exposure, which narrow both the plant palette and the substrate choices. A design for these sites starts from the structural loading the building owner allows, then selects lightweight substrates and wind-tolerant species to fit.

Water is a significant running cost on commercial sites. Irrigation designs and maintenance plans can be built around measurable consumption targets, and the reporting format and frequency, such as monthly meter readings alongside the work log, are set out in the contract.

Honest pricing

What moves the price

No two Dubai plots are the same, so we never quote blind. These are the four things that genuinely change the number on your quote.

Site area and planting density

Contracts are priced per site after a survey of area, planting density and access.

Scope by zone

Common areas, podiums, entrances and unit frontages can each carry different standards and visit patterns.

Irrigation and water source

The irrigation scope, and whether the site uses mains or treated sewage effluent, change equipment and inspection needs.

Access, hours and reporting

Working hours, permit-to-work and induction requirements and the reporting format your team needs are agreed in the proposal and affect the price.

Every quote is fixed, itemised and in writing, with materials and quantities listed. It states what is included and what is excluded, and authority and engineer fees appear as separate lines, so you can compare it line by line with any other quote.

Questions

Commercial: your questions answered

Do you work with facility management companies?
Working with a facilities management company is a normal part of commercial landscaping, on both installation projects and maintenance contracts. The proposal should state how work follows your permit-to-work system, which site inductions your team requires and the reporting format, all agreed in the contract. Bring your FM team's requirements to the site visit so they can be priced.
How would a large compound project be phased?
Large compound projects are normally delivered in phases. Common areas, entrance avenues and individual unit frontages should be programmed so residents keep access and the site does not look abandoned mid-phase. Supervision arrangements and progress reporting for a project of that size should be set out in the proposal, so ask for them in writing before you appoint anyone.
What does commercial maintenance cost?
The written quote sets the price per site after a survey, based on area, planting density, visit frequency and irrigation scope. The invoicing pattern is set out in the contract against a defined scope, and it is worth asking for seasonal works such as major mulching to be quoted separately for your approval before they are done.
How do you minimise disruption to our operations?
The programme should be agreed with your team before anyone arrives on site. It should also state how noisy or dusty work is scheduled outside your peak hours where it allows, how deliveries are coordinated with security, and how work zones are barriered and signed. Any out-of-hours working, for hotels and retail especially, depends on your site rules and the current Dubai working-hours rules, so confirm it for your contract.
Can you take over a landscape that is in poor condition?
Yes. We start with a condition audit covering planting, irrigation and soil, then a prioritised recovery plan: what to save, what to replace and what it costs. The recovery plan also sets out the order of work, so your team can track progress against it.
What should a commercial landscape maintenance contract include?
At minimum: a defined scope by zone, visit frequency, irrigation management and fault response, seasonal works and who approves them, reporting format, and how performance is measured. The contract should also say who pays for plant replacement and water, and how the schedule adapts to seasonal site hours, since working hours follow the current Dubai working-hours rules and can change through the year; confirm the current rules for your contract. A tight scope protects both sides, because vague contracts are where budgets and standards drift.
Can a commercial site irrigate with treated sewage effluent?
Treated sewage effluent (TSE) can be used for landscape irrigation on some sites in Dubai under Dubai Municipality rules, and it is used on some larger commercial and community sites. Use normally needs a permit that sets the approved use, an approved meter and a system designed for it, including suitable filtration and emitters, because TSE carries far higher salt levels than mains water. Confirm whether your site has or can obtain a supply with the authority and your FM team. Where a TSE supply exists, the irrigation design can be specified to suit it.
