Comprehensive Maintenance Package in Dubai Marina

The General Maintenance Package is a preventive check-up for your apartment, covering the three systems most likely to cause problems in a Marina high-rise:

**AC system check**

- Clean or replace AC filters

- Check thermostat operation and calibration

- Inspect condensate drain lines for blockages (a major cause of ceiling leaks in Marina towers)

- Test airflow at each supply grille

- Note any unusual noises from the fan coil unit

**Plumbing check**

- Inspect all visible pipe connections under sinks, behind toilets, and at the washing-machine valves

- Check water pressure at kitchen and bathroom taps

- Test toilet flush mechanisms and cistern fill valves

- Inspect silicone seals around bathtubs, shower trays, and kitchen sinks

- Clear minor drain blockages in sinks and floor drains

**Electrical check**

- Test all power outlets and light switches for function

- Check consumer-unit breakers for correct labelling and tripping response

- Inspect visible wiring for damage or deterioration

- Test smoke detectors and replace batteries if needed

- Note any flickering lights or warm outlets that indicate a developing fault

After every visit, you receive a written report listing what was checked, what was repaired, and any issues that need follow-up work. The report is emailed as a PDF - useful for landlords managing properties remotely.

Dubai Marina is a canal-front community of more than 200 towers housing an estimated 50,000 residents. The neighbourhood wraps around a 3 km man-made waterway, with JBR Beach to the west, Sheikh Zayed Road to the east, and the Marina Mall and Marina Walk forming the commercial spine.

Maintenance considerations specific to Dubai Marina:

- **High-rise humidity** - Towers above 30 floors experience significant condensation on AC lines, especially on north-facing units. Blocked condensate drains are the number-one cause of ceiling water damage in the Marina, and clearing them is a standard part of our AC check.

- **Marina Walk and Pier 7 restaurants** - Ground-floor retail creates pest pathways into residential floors above. Our maintenance visit includes a check of kitchen entry points and balcony drain covers that cockroaches use as access routes.

- **JBR tram and Metro (DMCC station)** - The transport hub brings salt-laden coastal air into lobbies and corridors, which accelerates corrosion on exposed plumbing fittings and balcony metalwork.

- **Building management diversity** - Each tower has its own management company, and maintenance access rules vary. Some require 48-hour notice; others allow same-day entry with tenant authorisation. We track these requirements per building.

- **Rental market** - A large proportion of Marina apartments are investment properties managed by landlords overseas. Our written maintenance reports give landlords documented evidence that their asset is being maintained, which is valuable for tenancy renewals and RERA compliance.
