What is included
Degreasing of every surface, appliance and cabinet interior, with food contact surfaces ATP tested. Cooking oil travels. It coats the hood, the cabinet tops and the wall behind the cooker, and it holds dust. We strip the grease, clean inside every unit and appliance and test food contact surfaces so the kitchen is hygienically clean and not just shiny.
- Finish of each tap and sink checked before a descaler is chosen
- Aerators unscrewed, soaked and their screens cleared of scale
- Descaler held on the tap with a cloth wrap so it stays in contact
- Sink rinsed, overflow cleaned and steel dried and buffed
How we carry out kitchen sink and tap descaling
Desalinated water in Abu Dhabi leaves calcium deposits wherever it dries, and the kitchen sink and tap see more of that than any surface in the house. The crust gathers around the base of the tap, along the spout, at the edge of an undermount sink and inside the aerator, where it narrows the flow and makes the water spray sideways. Before anything is applied, the supervisor checks the finish. Chrome, brushed steel, matt black, brass and composite each react differently, and a strong acid can mark a coloured coating.
The aerators are unscrewed and soaked separately, then the mesh screens are cleared with a soft brush. On the tap, a descaler suited to the finish is applied on a cloth wrap so it stays on the deposit instead of running off, then worked away with a soft pad. Stone and composite sinks get a gentler product and more passes. The overflow and the waste are cleaned, the whole area is rinsed, and the steel is dried and buffed so fresh water spots do not form straight away.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site visit and written quotation. A supervisor visits, measures and records every room, surface and extra. The written quotation that follows sets out the scope, with no hourly meter and nothing added on the day.
- Protect and prepare. Lifts, floors and furniture are protected and delicate finishes are logged on a surface register before any product is opened.
- Dry before wet, top before bottom. Dust is lifted with HEPA filtered vacuums from ceilings and fittings downwards. Each zone is then wet cleaned with chemistry matched to its finish.
- Detail work and floors. Tracks, switches, skirtings, handles and glass are finished by hand. Floors are machine scrubbed last so nothing is walked back in.
- Inspection and report. The supervisor signs all fourteen checks, photographs the result and sends you the report within the hour.
Kitchen Sink and Tap Descaling in Al Bateen: what we plan for
Al Bateen runs along the western shore of Abu Dhabi island, south of the Corniche, and is one of the city's oldest prime addresses. Large private villas fill the inland streets. The waterfront holds Al Bateen Park with its villas, townhouses and low rise Plaza apartments, the Marasy and Bloom Marina buildings around the marina, hotel residences, and the separate villa island of Nareel.
Sea air comes off the marina and the open water to the west, so glass, railings and outdoor AC units collect a salt film within days. Mature gardens drop leaves and pollen into pools and gutters, and irrigation on the older plots leaves white mineral rings on boundary walls and paving.
Al Bateen Park, Nareel Island and the marina buildings have gate security, so the resident registers our team in advance. Apartments need a work permit and a service lift booking. Exterior work may need master community approval, identified at the site visit; we prepare the paperwork.

Questions about kitchen sink and tap descaling in Al Bateen
What does kitchen sink and tap descaling include?
White crust on taps, aerators and sink edges is softened with a descaler suited to the finish, worked off by hand, and the aerators taken apart and cleared. The work includes finish of each tap and sink checked before a descaler is chosen; aerators unscrewed, soaked and their screens cleared of scale; descaler held on the tap with a cloth wrap so it stays in contact.
Can limescale damage my kitchen tap?
Heavy build up can stiffen the lever, block the aerator and push water through the wrong gaps. The bigger risk is often the cleaning: abrasive pads and strong acids can scratch or strip a coated finish, which is why we test the product first.
How do I keep the tap clear between visits?
Wiping the tap and sink dry after use stops most deposits forming. On chrome, a soft cloth with diluted white vinegar, rinsed straight off, handles light scale. Coloured and brushed finishes are better cleaned with plain water and microfibre.
How much does kitchen sink and tap descaling cost in Al Bateen?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size of the property and number of rooms; condition, and how long since the last deep clean.
