Workshop & Site

Common Questions
Frequently asked about soft elements in Al Barari.
What approvals do I need for soft elements in Al Barari?
Your project routes through Al Barari Community Management first for community NOC, then DM / DDA for the engineering permit. Buildsmith® handles both — submission, follow-up, inspection close-out and final completion certificate are all standard scope. We do not start work until the community NOC is granted.
Are all phases of Al Barari covered, or only specific zones?
Yes — we deliver across The Residences, Seventh Heaven, Ashjar, The Reserve, The Nest. Each cluster carries its own approval nuances (façade restrictions, working-hour windows, skip-permit rules) — we map these at survey before quotation.
Do you renovate every Al Barari typology under one contract?
Yes — we deliver across the full Al Barari typology spectrum, from Residences (5-bed) through Reserve Mansion (7-bed). Every project is fixed-price under one design-and-build contract, scoped against your specific unit and finish brief. Indicative figures and a sequenced programme are issued within one business day of survey, never against a generic per-square-foot rate.
What Al Barari-specific rules affect the renovation programme?
Three constraints we always plan for in Al Barari: Al Barari community management approves all external works; Tree-protection covenants on every plot; Façade and landscape changes require pre-approval. We surface these at the quotation stage so the programme reflects them — not at week three when they suddenly stop site work.
How is HIC certification verified for Al Barari play areas?
Every soft element supplied to Al Barari carries documented HIC (Head Injury Criterion) drop-test certification per EN 1177 with Critical Fall Height matched to your equipment. Al Barari Community Management / inspection authority gets the certificate pack at delivery — required for licensing, insurance and audit.
What does HIC certification mean?
HIC = Head Injury Criterion. EN 1177 specifies a drop-test where a steel headform is dropped onto the surface from a defined height; the deceleration is measured. The result is a Critical Fall Height (the maximum height the surface can protect from). UAE early-years authorities check HIC on all play-area surfacing.
Are foam tiles really safe?
Foam tiles are safe up to a Critical Fall Height that depends on the foam density and thickness — typically 0.6–1.2m. For taller equipment (slides, climbers above 1.2m) you need thicker rubber surfacing or wet-pour systems. We specify the surfacing to match the equipment's fall height — never the other way round.
Can you do brand-coloured or custom-printed soft elements?
Yes — for nursery operators, schools and hospitality clients we deliver brand-coloured and brand-printed ranges. Wall padding, soft-play kits, cushions and sensory panels can all be made in your brand palette and with printed graphics — all to the same EN certification.
