Why a Home Inspector Checklist Matters in Dubai
In a city as fast-growing as Dubai, where thousands of new properties are handed over every year, even a brand-new home can hide serious defects. That’s why hiring a certified home inspector in Dubai is no longer optional — it’s essential.
At Property Inspection Dubai, we follow a proven, room-by-room home inspector checklist to ensure every inch of your apartment, villa, or townhouse is professionally inspected. From cosmetic finishing to hidden leaks and unsafe wiring, we catch it all — so you don’t have to pay later.
