What is included
Wallpaper fixing for homes, offices and shops, with walls prepared, patterns matched and seams closed by our own decorators. Wallpaper fails in Dubai 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.
- Paper type identified and a cleaning test done behind furniture or a door
- Loose dust lifted with a soft brush vacuum from top to bottom
- Dry sponge used on uncoated paper, damp microfibre on washable vinyl
- Marks, scuffs and fingerprints treated one by one, seams kept dry
How we carry out wallpaper cleaning
Wallpaper cleaning starts with knowing what is on the wall. Washable vinyl takes a damp wipe. Uncoated paper, grasscloth and flocked papers do not, because water stains them, lifts the print or loosens the paste at the seams. The supervisor checks the type, often from a spare roll if one was kept, and tests the method on a patch hidden behind a wardrobe or a door. In Dubai homes the dust is fine and turns greasy near kitchens, and fingerprints gather around light switches, door frames and stair walls.
Loose dust comes off first with a vacuum fitted with a soft brush, working from the cornice down so nothing falls on cleaned paper. On paper and textured finishes a dry chemical sponge lifts the grey film without water. Vinyl is wiped with microfibre barely damp with a mild, pH neutral solution and dried straight away with a second cloth. Seams and edges are kept as dry as possible, since water drawn into a seam is what makes paper lift. Stains that resist a gentle method are left and shown to you.
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 Cleaning in DAMAC Hills: what we plan for
DAMAC Hills is built around the Trump International Golf Club, with villa clusters such as Whitefield, Rockwood, Richmond, Brookfield and the Trump Estates, and apartment buildings including Golf Town, Golf Promenade, Carson and Loreto. A few minutes away, DAMAC Lagoons is a newer community of townhouses and villas arranged in Mediterranean themed clusters around swimming lagoons.
Fairway irrigation leaves mineral marks on glass and boundary walls of course facing homes. DAMAC Lagoons is still being completed, so construction dust settles on terraces and in AC filters every day. Villas from the first phases are now due their first full repaint, inside and out. Course facing elevations are cleaned of irrigation staining and sealed before the exterior coats. New townhouses in the Lagoons are often repainted in a washable finish soon after handover.
Both communities are gated. Residents register our crew through the community app, and apartment buildings need a work permit and a service lift booking.

Questions about wallpaper cleaning in DAMAC Hills
What does wallpaper cleaning include?
Vinyl, paper and textured wallpapers cleaned by type: dry sponging for paper, a damp microfibre wipe for vinyl, and spot work on marks, all tested first on a hidden area. The work includes paper type identified and a cleaning test done behind furniture or a door; loose dust lifted with a soft brush vacuum from top to bottom; dry sponge used on uncoated paper, damp microfibre on washable vinyl.
Can all wallpaper be wiped with a damp cloth?
No. Washable vinyl can, but plain paper, grasscloth, flock and many designer papers mark or lift with water. We identify the paper and test the method on a hidden patch before cleaning the main walls.
Will cleaning remove a stain on the wallpaper?
Light marks, dust film and fingerprints usually lift. Ink, grease absorbed into paper and water staining often do not, and scrubbing them damages the surface. We try the gentlest method, and if a stain stays we show you the options, which can include a patch repair.
How much does wallpaper cleaning cost in DAMAC Hills?
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 cleaning in DAMAC Hills?
The MELLS provides wallpaper cleaning in DAMAC Hills, 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 wallpaper cleaning 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 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.
Can old wallpaper be removed without damaging the wall?
In most cases. We soften the adhesive with steam or a stripping solution and lift the paper in sections. Where the wall was never primed, some skim can come away with it, and we make that good before the next finish.
How do your crews get access to DAMAC Hills?
Both communities are gated. Residents register our crew through the community app, and apartment buildings need a work permit and a service lift booking.
Do you clean newly handed over townhouses in DAMAC Lagoons?
Yes. Post construction and move in cleaning is the most common booking there. We remove builder's dust, paint and cement marks and clean the AC grilles.
How do I choose a company for wallpaper cleaning in DAMAC Hills?
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.
