Darb runs commercial renovation across Riyadh on OCCUPIED spaces — offices refreshed floor by floor with the team still working, restaurants closed for a controlled two-week window and reopened refreshed, retail refit after-hours across a fortnight, clinics refit exam-room by exam-room around the schedule. Not a full rip-and-redo — a planned refresh that respects the calendar you can't move.
Renovation runs different from new-build fit-out — the constraint is the operating calendar, not the site logistics.
For offices that need refreshing without a full move-out — reception update, executive-floor refresh, boardroom rebuild, or floor-by-floor phasing across a whole HQ.
For restaurants that need a refit without losing the season — one controlled two-to-three-week closure window with the whole team on-site, reopen refreshed and ready for the next lunch service.
For retail that can't afford daylight downtime — after-hours install across a fortnight, mall management coordination for out-of-hours access, brand-consistent refresh delivered without a lost weekend of trade.
For clinics that keep seeing patients — treatment room by treatment room, MOH-compliant throughout, sterilisation loop uninterrupted.
For showrooms that time the refit to the industry's off-season — automotive between model years, luxury between fashion seasons, furniture around exhibition cycles.
Every deliverable of a full fit-out, phased for occupied delivery.
Every engagement is scoped to the sector, the phasing constraint, and the target completion window — proposals return within 48 hours of the site walk.
One-off renovation of a specific site — an office HQ refresh, a restaurant refit, a clinic upgrade.
For sites that need a paint + finish + lighting refresh without a full rebuild — done in a compressed window.
For enterprises refitting multiple sites — offices across floors, retail across stores, clinics across branches. One project director, rolling handovers.
Every engagement is fully customised — send the site (photos or drawings), the sector, the closure constraint, and target completion window; a tailored proposal returns within 48 hours.
Renovation timelines depend on the closure constraint more than the scope. A single closed-window refit runs faster than a phased occupied-space refit.
We walk the site with your operations lead, survey existing MEP + finishes + structural condition, and map the phasing constraint (which zones can close when).
Concept design + phasing plan side-by-side — the design has to work in the phases, not the other way round. You approve both together.
Permit filing per phase if the sector requires (MOH / SFDA / municipality). Build starts phase-by-phase, with each phase closed out and handed over before the next starts.
Each phase snags + hands over separately, so the business is running in the finished phases while the next is being built. Final handover when the last phase clears.
Yes — that's the whole point of the engagement. Floor-by-floor or zone-by-zone phasing means the team keeps working in the finished areas while we're building in the closed-off zones. Dust + noise containment via temporary partitions, air-scrubbers when needed, and after-hours + weekend work windows for the loudest phases. We've refit whole HQs without a single lost workday.
Two-to-three weeks of controlled closure for most refits, with the FOH + BOH work compressed into the same window. Plan the closure around your slowest sales period. The team lands day one, works round-the-clock, and reopens per the plan — SFDA + civil defence re-inspection built into the last week.
For most refits, yes. After-hours install across 10-14 nights, mall management coordination for out-of-hours access, and daytime trade continues throughout. Full structural refits still need day-time work, but for finish + fixture + display refresh we can typically run entirely outside trading hours.
Room by room, with the sterilisation loop preserved throughout. One treatment room closes, gets refit, gets MOH-inspected, reopens; then the next. Reception + waiting stays operational at all times, or gets refit at the same time as the last treatment room so it opens fresh. Clinic operators plan renovation windows around low-volume months (Ramadan mornings, summer travel period) to compress the phasing.
Depends on the sector + scope. Cosmetic refresh (paint + flooring + lighting) usually doesn't need municipality permits. Structural changes, MEP upgrades, and any regulated-sector changes (clinic, F&B) do. We assess in the site walk and file whatever's needed — you don't chase it.
Yes — that's the second engagement option ('Refresh (Light Renovation)'). Paint + wallcovering + lighting + signage + fixture-level refresh, done in a compressed 1-2 week window without touching the MEP or structural layer. Popular for occupied offices that want a quick brand update.
Yes — the third engagement option. Standardised design package rolled out across every site, one project director carrying the standard, rolling handovers so the brand is refreshed one site at a time without losing the whole network to construction simultaneously.
Yes — VAT-registered invoicing with 15% VAT applied, corporate PO handling, and payment terms that fit a renovation calendar (typically 20/30/30/20 across signature / drawings sign-off / mid-build / final handover, or per-phase billing for portfolio programmes).
Send site photos or drawings, the sector, the closure constraint, and your target completion window. A tailored proposal — phasing plan, budget bracket, timeline — returns within 48 hours.
