Terms of use
The price figures, the calculator and the rule summaries are here to help you plan and ask better questions. These terms set out where that help stops.

Who these terms are with
Operator details (legal name, trade licence, address and email) are published here before this site launches.
By using the site you accept these terms. They cover visitors in the United Arab Emirates, the only country the site serves.
The price figures and the calculator
Prices on this site are published by named third parties and shown with a link to the source and the date they were looked up. They describe what those businesses say work tends to cost in Dubai. They are not offers, and nobody is bound to charge them. The calculator multiplies a published rate by the area you type in; it cannot see the condition of your roof, how hard it is to reach, or repairs nobody has found yet.
Rules and regulations
Summaries of Dubai Municipality requirements are there to help you find the right clause, and each one gives the clause or table number. They are not a compliance opinion. Meeting the regulations that apply to your building is the job of your consultant and contractor.
Quote requests
When quote requests are open and you send one, your details are passed to waterproofing firms as described in the privacy policy. We do not employ, licence, supervise or inspect those firms, and we make no promise about their prices or workmanship. Any agreement you make is between you and the firm. Check a firm's trade licence and ask for its warranty in writing before you pay anything.
Businesses may pay us a fee for an introduction. It doesn't change what you pay, and it never changes a figure on this site.
Website plan for businesses
The managed website plan for waterproofing firms is a separate service for businesses, with its own website plan terms. Those terms apply to the plan; these terms apply to using this site.
Advertising
The site may show advertising in future. Ads are placed by the advertising provider named in the privacy policy, are marked as ads, and never change the figures on a page.
Using the content
You are welcome to quote a figure with a link back to the page it came from. The underlying prices and rules belong to their publishers, so for anything more than a short quotation, go to the source.
Availability and changes
Figures are updated as their sources change, and pages may be changed or removed. The site is provided as it is, and we cannot promise it will always be available or free of errors.
Liability
As far as UAE law allows, we are not liable for losses that come from decisions made on the strength of a figure, estimate or summary published here. Nothing in these terms limits a liability that the law does not allow to be limited. Before you spend money, check anything that matters with a professional who has seen the job.
Law and courts
These terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates. Disputes go to the competent courts of the emirate in which the operator is licensed, as shown above once the operator details are published.
Changes to these terms
Last updated . A changed version takes effect when it is published here.
