The After Service Ghost: What Happens If Something Breaks After Handover?
Dubai 2026 – Homeowners & Business Owners Guide
When a renovation or fit-out project finishes, most clients feel relieved until the unexpected happens.
A leaking AC. A loose cabinet hinge. Paint bubbling after the first deep clean.
You call the contractor… and suddenly, they disappear like a ghost.
No response. No responsibility. No after service.
This is one of the biggest problems in Dubai’s renovation and fit out market and it’s why choosing the “cheapest quote” often becomes the most expensive mistake.
Why Does This Happen?
Most low cost contractors:
- Outsource labor to temporary teams
- Don’t offer structured aftercare or warranty
- Vanish once final payment is collected
- Have no incentive or system to return
So when a problem appears after handover there’s no protection for the client.
Who Fixes the AC if it Leaks Next Month?
This is the question every homeowner or business should ask before signing a contract.
A proper fit out company must provide:
- Clear warranty (minimum 6–12 months depending on scope)
- AMC (Annual Maintenance Contract) options
- Written accountability for MEP, joinery, and finishing
- A documented post handover support process
Without this in writing, repairs become the client’s expense.
How RadyInterior Avoids the After Service Ghost Problem
At RadyInterior, the project doesn’t end on handover day that’s where responsibility begins.
Our After Service Policy

A luxury project is not just about how it looks on handover but how it performs after you live in it.
Before You Sign with Any Contractor Ask These Questions
- What is your after-service policy in writing?
- Is there a warranty for MEP and joinery?
- Is maintenance paid or included?
- What is the response time if something breaks?
- Will the same team return, or outsourced labor?
If they can’t answer clearly, don’t sign.
Final Message
Luxury isn’t just the finish.
Luxury is accountability.
Luxury is support after the project is complete.
If your contractor disappears after payment, that’s not a service it’s a gamble.
With RadyInterior, you’re not left alone after handover.
You get protection, support, and responsibility.
