Source LTS — Dubai’s Sketch-Led Builder

Hero بطل

Est. 2009 Dubai

Your backyard, ready
for the season it was built for.

Pools, gardens and full villa renovations across Dubai — one in-house team, one fixed timeline, handed back ready to use.

You already know what you want. A freeform pool with a waterfall edge. A shaded pergola for winter evenings. A kitchen that opens to the garden. We've heard that brief a hundred times — and built every version differently, because no two sketches are the same.

Since 2009 we have poured concrete, laid marble and planted gardens in Dubai. Same in-house team. No subcontractors. Four languages on site.

What does it actually cost? Run the numbers — no email required.

Dubai renovation pricing is opaque. Most contractors give you a number only after a site visit, and some of those numbers move later. We'd rather you come to that conversation already knowing the ballpark.

Use the estimator below. Adjust scope, materials and size. Get a realistic AED range in under two minutes. Then WhatsApp us to confirm against your actual plot.

Select your project type, size and finish level. The estimate reflects Source LTS's real 2024-2025 pricing — mid-range materials, in-house labour, full scope.

What We Build

Pools, gardens and villa renovation — end to end, one team.

Resort-style freeform swimming pool and plunge pool built by Source LTS

Pillar Service

Swimming Pools — Plunge to Community

From a compact plunge pool in a Jumeirah courtyard to a community pool serving an entire compound — we design and build from your brief. Freeform, lap, infinity, raised. We handle excavation, the concrete shell, MEP, tiling and handover. One number in your phone, not four contractors.

· Private villa pools & freeform shapes
· Community & resort-style pools
· Retrofit pools in finished villas
· Plunge, lap, infinity & raised builds

Describe Your Pool on WhatsApp

Pillar Service

Landscaping — Garden, Hardscape, Irrigation

A garden that survives Dubai's 45°C summer and still looks intentional in February. Planting plans, raised beds, mature palms, stone paths, drip irrigation and night lighting — designed together as one outdoor room, not bolted on after the pool.

· Garden & planting design for Dubai climate
· Hardscape: paving, stepping stones, planters
· Underground drip & spray irrigation grids
· Outdoor lighting & artificial grass

Describe Your Garden on WhatsApp

Villa Renovation

Full-scope renovation of UAE villas — structural works, flooring, kitchens, bathrooms, and MEP in one coordinated programme.

Pergola, Gazebo & Outdoor Kitchen

Aluminium-framed shade structures and fully fitted outdoor cooking stations — installed alongside or independent of a pool build.

Irrigation Systems

Underground drip and spray grids designed to the root depth of your specific planting — not a generic layout.

Marble, Granite & Tile

Stone selection, cutting and installation across floors, pool surrounds, bathrooms and feature walls.

MEP Works

Mechanical, electrical and plumbing — run in-house, not subcontracted, so nothing waits on a third party.

Pool Maintenance

Ongoing chemical management and equipment servicing — weekly contracts available after handover.

Artificial Grass & Ground Cover

High-pile UV-stable grass laid over correct sub-base drainage — looks real, survives a Dubai summer.

One team handles all of the above — simultaneously if needed.

Two partners on every project — engineering and commercial.

When you message Source LTS you reach the partners directly. One owns the build. The other owns the brief, the price and the handover. Both of them sign off on every site.

Mazhar brings 32 years of delivery across luxury villas, private mansions, palaces and 5-star hospitality fit-outs in the UAE and wider GCC. His specialism is the hard part of a high-end build — MEP coordination, bespoke joinery, FF&E and the finishing detail that separates a show villa from a real one.

On every Source LTS project Mazhar owns delivery end to end: the programme, the trades on site, MEP integration and quality at handover. His track record is projects brought in under budget, ahead of schedule, and signed off with zero defects on the day they were promised.

Process العملية

How We Work

From your first WhatsApp to the day you swim — here is exactly what happens.

No vague timelines. No surprise site visits. Every stage has a clear output and you approve before we move forward.

Resort-style freeform pool and plunge pool delivered by Source LTS — what a finished build looks like

Day 01

You Share the Vision

WhatsApp us a photo, sketch, voice note or reference. We listen. A senior team member calls you back within two hours to confirm scope and book the site visit — no junior sales rep, no script.

Day 03

Site Visit & Measurement

We come to you. We measure the plot, check soil and access, identify any constraint — sloped ground, existing MEP, neighbour walls. You get an honest feasibility read on the same day.

Day 07

Proposal & Fixed Scope

A written scope document with line-item costs, a realistic timeline and a materials specification. No ballpark. No 'we'll confirm after we start.' You know the number before a single shovel moves.

Day 10

Ground Breaks

Our crew mobilises. Excavation, underground MEP routing and structural groundworks begin. We send you a photo update every three working days — unprompted.

Day 21

Structure & Craft

Shell, tiling, planting, pergola frames, outdoor fixtures — the visible build takes shape. This is when the sketch becomes real. You are welcome on site at any time.

Challenges تحديات

Complex Scope

Other contractors said no. We said — describe it to us.

Non-standard plots, retrofit pools in built-up villas, sloped gardens with zero flat ground. These are the jobs we specifically want. Sixteen years in Dubai means we have solved most of the unusual problems already.

Sloped Plot

Terraced Pool on a 2.5m Drop

Challenge

The client's rear garden fell 2.5 metres across 12 metres. Three contractors walked away. Standard excavation was impossible without destabilising the boundary wall.

Solution

We designed a split-level terrace: retained lower pool deck, stepped limestone walls doubling as seating, and a concealed drainage channel to manage run-off. MEP routed through the retaining structure.

A freeform pool that uses the slope as a design feature — completed in 48 days.

Tell Us Your Challenge

Retrofit

Pool Added to a Fully Landscaped Villa

Challenge

The client had an established garden — mature palms, an irrigation grid, an existing boundary wall — and wanted a pool added without losing the planting or disturbing the exterior finish.

Solution

We mapped the existing irrigation runs and re-routed before excavation. Palms were root-balled and temporarily relocated, then replanted to the new pool surround layout after the shell cured.

Pool installed, all mature trees preserved, replanting completed. Client's garden looked intentional, not disrupted.

Talk Through Your Scope

Complex Scope

Pool, Pergola, Kitchen & Irrigation in One Programme

Challenge

The client had been quoted by four separate contractors — a pool company, a landscaper, a pergola fabricator and a plumber. Four contracts, four timelines, four points of failure.

Solution

We took the entire outdoor scope as a single programme. One site manager. One schedule. MEP for pool, irrigation and outdoor kitchen run in a single underground sweep before any surface work began.

Full outdoor transformation in 52 days. One phone call managed everything.
