Can I Extend My Villa in Dubai Hills?

It depends on the plot. Detached villas on larger plots often have space to extend; townhouses usually have less. Emaar checks the area and boundary rules, then DDA issues the permit.

What Emaar and DDA Look At Here

  • Community rules: Emaar checks floor area, distance from boundaries, height and the look of the villa against its rules for your plot
  • Added area: new rooms and enclosed spaces add floor area and must fit what is allowed for your plot
  • Structure checked: our engineers check the existing walls, slabs and foundations and stamp the calculations
  • DDA permit: structural works need a DDA building permit after the Emaar NOC

What to Send Us

  • Title deed and owner ID
  • Photos of the villa and the area to change
