Property Defect Assessment Dubai – Full Checklist

Why a Defect Assessment Is a Must in Dubai

Dubai’s skyline is filled with stunning villas, apartments, and towers. But behind the polished showrooms and glossy handovers, many properties—both new and occupied—hide critical defects that can cost owners thousands.

Whether you’re buying, leasing, moving in, or handing over, a full property defect assessment helps you uncover all visible and hidden faults before they turn into expensive repairs or legal disputes.

At Property Inspection Dubai, we deliver a room-by-room, photo-documented inspection—with a full report in just 12 hours.


🔍 What Is a Property Defect Assessment?

A property defect assessment is a complete evaluation of your home or unit’s condition. It goes beyond a visual check—it uses advanced tools to assess:

  • Structural integrity
  • Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing (MEP) systems
  • AC and ventilation performance
  • Safety and compliance issues
  • Moisture and leak detection
  • Finishing, alignment, sealing, and installation defects

It’s ideal for homeowners, buyers, investors, tenants, and landlords in Dubai who want to protect their property and peace of mind.

📖 Real Case: AED 27,000 Worth of Defects Found in New Villa

A client moving into a 4-bedroom villa in Tilal Al Ghaf booked a full defect assessment. Although the developer claimed the home was handover-ready, we discovered:

  • 3 major water leaks (one behind a wardrobe)
  • Poor AC cooling in 2 rooms due to duct insulation failure
  • Incomplete tile grouting in the guest bathroom
  • Faulty socket polarity in 4 locations
  • Balcony slope causing water pooling

Our 12-hour report helped the owner push the developer to fix all snags before move-in—saving AED 27,000+ in post-handover repair costs.
