Every person who buys an apartment in Dubai has a desire to adapt the apartment "for themselves" so that life there is as convenient and comfortable as possible, to bring something new and unusual to the layout of the apartment. Sometimes, for convenience, you need to move a wall, doorway, window or something else in the apartment, which can be called in one word "redevelopment". A competent redevelopment of the living space, carried out by specialists, will be able to change the interior, make it comfortable, unique, and "fix" the space of the room.

The approval of the premises takes place in two variants, depending on the type of construction work performed: according to the sketch (simplified version) and according to the project (a more time-consuming version of the approval). To coordinate the redevelopment according to the sketch, you do not need to order design documentation, a sketch from the technical passport with the rendered redevelopment is enough. The approval of the redevelopment of the project requires the ordering of project documentation. The project can be developed by a public or private organization.
