What is included
Wallpaper fails in Abu Dhabi when it is hung on dusty, unprimed or damp walls, or when the AC is off for the summer and humidity lifts the seams. We check the wall for moisture, repair and prime it, then hang the paper with the adhesive its manufacturer specifies.
- Wall measurement and roll quantity check
- Removal of old wallpaper and adhesive
- Filling, sanding and priming of the wall
- Paper, vinyl, textile and non woven wall coverings
- Murals and large format printed panels
- Pattern matching from a plumb first drop
- Neat trimming at sockets, switches, skirtings and cornices
- Seam and corner repairs to existing wallpaper
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.
Wallpaper Fixing 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. Many inland villas date from earlier decades, so hairline cracks at window corners, blistering where sprinklers hit the base of walls and rusted gates are common. Loose paint is scraped back, cracks are raked out and filled, and a sealing primer goes on before the topcoats. Exterior colours stay within what the community allows.
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 wallpaper fixing in Al Bateen
What does wallpaper fixing include?
Wallpaper fixing for homes, offices and shops, with walls prepared, patterns matched and seams closed by our own decorators. The work includes wall measurement and roll quantity check; removal of old wallpaper and adhesive; filling, sanding and priming of the wall.
How much does wallpaper fixing cost in Al Bateen?
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 wallpaper fixing in Al Bateen?
The MELLS provides wallpaper fixing in Al Bateen, Abu Dhabi. 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 wallpaper fixing take?
Typically 2 to 4 hours for a feature wall and 1 to 2 days for several rooms. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Can wallpaper go over a painted wall?
Yes, if the paint is sound, clean and matt. Glossy or flaking paint is sanded or stripped and the wall is primed, because paper only holds as well as the surface beneath it.
Can you hang wallpaper I have already bought?
Yes. Tell us the roll size, the pattern repeat and the batch numbers at the site visit, and we check that the quantity covers the wall before a single drop is cut.
Will wallpaper last in a bathroom or kitchen?
Standard paper is not suited to wet areas or to the wall beside a hob. In those rooms we advise a vinyl wall covering kept away from direct water, or a paint finish instead.
How do your crews get access to Al Bateen?
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.
Do you work on Nareel Island?
Yes, by appointment. The resident registers our team with island security in advance, and we send staff names and the vehicle plate for the pass before the visit.
How do I choose a company for wallpaper fixing in Al Bateen?
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.
How are visits to Al Bateen arranged?
Visits in Abu Dhabi are booked by appointment between 08:00 and 19:00, Monday to Saturday. Call or send the form and we agree the earliest time a supervisor can come to you.
