What is included
Interior and exterior painting by our own painters, with surfaces properly prepared, furniture fully protected and wet film thickness checked on every coat. A good paint finish is mostly preparation. Dubai walls move with heat, hairline cracks open at ceiling joints, and coastal air and irrigation mark exterior walls within a few seasons. We repair and prime before we paint, apply the system named in your quotation and leave the home clean enough to move straight back into.
- Existing colour and sheen identified or matched by sample
- Marks washed, chips filled and sanded flush
- Repairs spot primed so they do not flash through
- Patch feathered out, or the wall painted to its corners
How we carry out paint touch up
A good touch up starts with the paint itself. If the leftover tin or the colour code is available, that is used; if not, a small chip is taken to be matched. Dirty marks are washed first, since many come off without paint. Chips and screw holes are filled, sanded flush and spot primed. The patch is then applied with the same tool as the original, usually a small roller, and feathered outward with a nearly dry sleeve so there is no hard edge.
Touch ups show for three reasons: the colour has shifted with age, the sheen differs, or the texture changes because a brush was used on a rolled wall. Strong light makes all three worse. Deep colours and any paint with sheen are the hardest to patch, and walls older than a few years rarely take an invisible repair. Unprimed filler also dries dull and shows as a flat spot. The site visit lists the marks room by room and sorts them into those that can be patched and those that need a full wall.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey, colour and written scope. We measure, test the existing coating and agree colours, sheen and the number of coats. The written quotation names the paint system and the scope.
- Protection. Furniture is moved and wrapped, floors are covered edge to edge, and switches, handles and light fittings are masked or removed.
- Surface preparation. Walls are washed, flaking paint is scraped back, cracks are opened and filled, and everything is sanded flat. Damp or salt affected areas are treated before any paint goes on.
- Primer and finish coats. A sealer or primer suited to the substrate is followed by two finish coats. Wet film thickness is checked on every coat.
- Snagging and handover. We inspect in daylight with you, touch up, clean down and hand over a paint schedule listing brand, colour codes and batch numbers for future touch ups.
Paint Touch up in Town Square: what we plan for
Town Square is a large family community off Al Qudra Road, built by Nshama around a central park and Reel Cinemas square. Rows of townhouses such as Zahra, Hayat, Safi, Naseem, Noor and Sama sit beside mid rise apartment buildings including Zahra Breeze, Jenna, Warda, Rawda and UNA.
Open desert lies on two sides of the community, so wind carries fine sand into window tracks, balconies and AC filters. Many homes are still in their first years, and builder's dust, paint spots and silicone marks are often left behind from handover. Handover paint in new townhouses is thin and marks easily, so a first repaint with a washable finish makes a visible difference. Settlement cracks at ceiling joints are opened, filled and taped before painting, and tenants moving out are returned to the original white for the handover inspection.
Townhouse streets are open to visitors with no gate pass. Apartment buildings need a work permit from building management and a service lift booking, and we arrange both.

Questions about paint touch up in Town Square
What does paint touch up include?
Touch up work repairs scuffs, chips, filled holes and small stains so they blend into the surrounding wall, and where a patch would show the whole wall is repainted corner to corner. The work includes existing colour and sheen identified or matched by sample; marks washed, chips filled and sanded flush; repairs spot primed so they do not flash through.
Why does my own touch up show as a patch?
Usually the sheen or the texture is different, even when the colour is right. Brushing leaves a smoother, shinier spot on a rolled wall, and paint from an old tin may have thickened or changed. Bare filler beneath also soaks up the binder and leaves a dull mark.
Is this suitable before handing back a rented property?
Touch up before a tenancy handover is one of the most common requests. We walk the property against the marks a landlord normally picks up, such as picture holes, furniture scuffs and marks behind beds. Where a landlord expects a full repaint in the original colour, we say so.
How much does paint touch up cost in Town Square?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: wall and ceiling area and ceiling height; condition of the surface and how much repair is needed. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides paint touch up in Town Square?
The MELLS provides paint touch up in Town Square, Dubai. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long does paint touch up take?
Usually one to three days, confirmed with the quotation.
Do you repair cracks and damp patches before painting?
Yes. Cracks are opened, filled and sanded, and damp or salt affected plaster is treated and sealed first. Painting over a defect only hides it for a few months.
How long before the paint is fully dry?
Water based emulsion is touch dry in about an hour and can be recoated in around four hours. It reaches full hardness over two to four weeks, so avoid scrubbing new walls in that time.
Do we need to move out while you paint?
No. We work room by room with low odour water based paints, and bedrooms are usable again the same night.
How do your crews get access to Town Square?
Townhouse streets are open to visitors with no gate pass. Apartment buildings need a work permit from building management and a service lift booking, and we arrange both.
Can you deep clean and repaint a Town Square townhouse before I hand it back?
Yes. Move out cleaning and painting are booked as one programme, usually two to three days for a townhouse, with photographs for your landlord.
How do I choose a company for paint touch up in Town Square?
Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed. The MELLS uses its own staff, quotes in writing after a site visit, checks every job (wet film thickness checked on every coat and an adhesion test at handover) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
Can you come to Town Square at short notice?
Yes. Crews travel from our Barsha Heights base, and urgent work in Dubai is attended within two hours between 08:00 and 19:00, Monday to Saturday.
