About us

A licensed Dubai renovation and construction company with its own crew — built to take a home from bare plot or tired interior to finished, under one accountable team.

Meet Fatima and Annmarie

Two Dubai women who got tired of unreliable contractors — so they built the company they'd actually trust with their own home.

Fatima and Annmarie, co-founders of Amana Crew, together

Fatima and Annmarie didn't come to building from an office job — they came from doing this work themselves, and from watching their own husbands do it every day. Between the four of them, they'd seen every version of a contractor that overpromises and under-delivers, and built Amana Crew to be the one they'd hand their own house keys to.

Fatima

Co-founder & owner

Lived in Australia for years and has built more than 28 houses across Australia and Dubai with her husband. She knows construction from the ground up.

Annmarie

Co-founder & owner

Years of experience in refurbishment, renovation, and maintenance with Kone's elevator business — keeping buildings, and the people in them, properly looked after.

Licensed for the whole job

Our trade licence covers construction and renovation. That matters more than it sounds: a kitchen refit can grow into an extension, or a fit-out into a pool and landscaping, without you appointing a second contractor and re-explaining the property.

Our crew, not a subcontractor chain

The tradespeople are ours. A lot of building work in Dubai is passed from a main contractor down a chain of subcontractors, and the quality varies with whoever ends up on site. We employ the crew, so the standard is ours to maintain and ours to answer for.

Fixed scope, milestone payments

Before work starts you get a written scope, a fixed price and a milestone schedule. You pay against milestones you can see completed, and anything outside the agreed scope is priced and approved by you before it's built — not added to the final invoice.

Permits handled properly

Structural, electrical, plumbing and AC work needs a building-management or developer NOC and a Dubai Municipality permit, and new builds need full building approvals. We apply for all of it and schedule around the lead times. It is slower than starting on Monday, and it is the difference between a finished home and a stop-work order with a fine attached.
