There are two ways into tamam: the app and whatsapp. Both end in the same place, a vetted vendor at your door in a slot you chose at a price you saw first. This page walks the whole journey, what you tap, what you see, what happens on the day, and what is waiting for you the second time.
tamam is a UAE on-demand services super-app: households and businesses book verified, licensed providers for home, car, health and lifestyle work across all seven emirates. The booking itself happens one of two ways, and they are not two different products. The app and whatsapp put the same vetted vendors, the same AED ranges and the same scheduling in front of you. What changes is who does the typing.
You drive it. Pick the job, set the address, compare the AED ranges side by side, choose a slot and confirm. Live arrival tracking, in-app chat, in-app payment and a saved receipt all sit in the same place. The tamam app is on iOS and Android, free to download and free to browse.
A coordinator drives it. Message +971 50 601 1938 with what you need and where, get vendor options with AED ranges back in the chat, confirm the one you want. Useful when the job is unusual, when you would rather talk it through, or when you are simply not near the app.
The app is the primary route, because side-by-side comparison and live tracking are things a screen does better than a chat thread. whatsapp is not a form that goes nowhere, though: it reaches the same vetted network, and it is how jobs and areas the catalogue does not list get arranged.
Seven steps: the first five are the booking, the last two are the day itself and what follows. Once your address and access notes are saved, most of it collapses into a few taps.
Most UAE on-demand service apps post a single fixed rate per service — take it or leave it. tamam does not. Pricing appears as AED ranges from multiple competing vendors, because the same job genuinely costs different amounts depending on who does it, how big it is, and which tier you want. A range is the honest shape of that answer; one figure is a rounding of it.
These are the bands you are reading on that screen, with the typical time a vendor spends on site.
| job | typical AED range | on site |
|---|---|---|
| cleaning | AED 35–90 per hour | 2–6 hours |
| ac maintenance | AED 150–700 | 1–3 hours |
| plumber | AED 120–600 | 1–3 hours |
| handyman | AED 100–500 | 1–3 hours |
| car wash | AED 30–120 | 30–90 min |
| oil change | AED 150–500 | 30–60 min |
| doctor at home | AED 300–800 | 30–45 min |
| laundry | AED 30–150 | 24–48 hours |
Alongside each range sits a tier, which is the biggest lever you control on the day you book.
What else moves you within a band: property type (apartment, villa, office), job complexity, urgency, and any add-ons you select. None of it arrives as a surprise at the door, because you see each vendor's number against your own job description before you choose.
The part of a service booking that goes wrong is rarely the work. It is coordination: the technician at the wrong gate, the service lift not booked, the visitor parking permit nobody mentioned. tamam handles that by asking once and remembering.
The context of the visit varies by service, and the app books all of them: at-home, at-office, at-hotel, mobile, roadside, and pickup-and-delivery. A doctor at home visit can be booked to a hotel room. Roadside assistance goes to wherever the car stopped. Laundry is a collection and a return, not a visit at all.
From the moment the slot opens, here is the booking from your side of it.
Payment is in-app, after the job, with a receipt saved to your account. There is no call-out fee for being shown prices, and nothing is taken while you are still comparing vendors. Settle up in the app when the work is finished, and tip if you want to.
The second booking is where that saved state earns its keep. Your address, access notes and the vendor you liked are already on the profile, so repeating the job is a couple of taps rather than a fresh search. Same-vendor rebook is available on request in the app, and if that vendor cannot take the slot you want, the full comparison screen is one tap behind it.
Some jobs do not fit an app form, and some people would rather not use one. whatsapp is a full booking channel on +971 50 601 1938, handled by a coordinator rather than an automated menu.
Vendor matching happens by area rather than by emirate, which is why the coverage list is so granular. tamam covers 686 named areas and communities across all seven emirates, and the vendors you are shown are the ones who actually work yours.
| emirate | areas covered |
|---|---|
| Dubai | 366 |
| Abu Dhabi | 153 |
| Sharjah | 65 |
| Ajman | 33 |
| Ras Al Khaimah | 31 |
| Fujairah | 22 |
| Umm Al Quwain | 15 |
Each of those areas has its own page for every service, so cleaning in Dubai Marina and ac maintenance in Khalifa City carry the ranges, durations and access realities that apply there rather than a national average. The booking flow itself is identical whichever page you arrive on. Check the full coverage list, or browse every area.
You describe the job in the app or in a whatsapp message. Verified vendors covering your area come back with transparent AED ranges. You choose the vendor and the tier that suits, confirm the slot, track arrival in-app on the day, and pay in-app with a receipt saved to your account. Next time, the same vendor is a couple of taps away.
No. whatsapp on +971 50 601 1938 is a full booking channel, not a contact form. Send what you need and where, a coordinator matches vendors from the same vetted network, and the AED ranges come back in the chat for you to approve. The app is still the better route if you want to compare options yourself and track arrival live.
No. tamam is free to download and free to browse. You can pick a job, set your address and read what several verified vendors would charge without paying anything. You only pay when you book a job.
Because several vendors quote the same job and you choose between them. The range covers the value, mid and premium tiers, plus the things that genuinely move a price: property type, job complexity, urgency and any parts involved. The range narrows to an actual figure once a vendor sees the scope, and you approve that figure before work starts.
The vendor confirms scope on arrival. If it is heavier than what you booked, the revised number is quoted to you and approved before work continues. Parts and consumables, where they apply, are quoted separately and approved by you first rather than appearing on a total afterwards.
A technician from the vendor business you selected, showing in the app with a name and tagged to that business. Every vendor on tamam has a trade licence verified with the relevant municipality, checked insurance, and technicians who are ID-tagged in the app. Vendors who let their licence or insurance lapse come off the platform.
Message tamam on whatsapp. If a service or an area is not listed in-app, a coordinator arranges a vendor through the same vetted network manually, and unusual scope is quoted individually before you commit to it.
Same-vendor rebook is available on request in the tamam app. Your address, access notes and previous vendor are stored on the profile, so repeating a job is a couple of taps. If that vendor cannot take the slot you want, the full comparison screen is one tap behind it.
The first booking takes a few minutes, mostly spent entering the address and access notes. After that they are saved, and later bookings are essentially job, slot, confirm. Time on site is a separate matter and varies by service, from 15 to 30 minutes for a blood test up to a few days for a full painting job.
The app is free to download and free to browse. Compare verified vendors and their AED ranges before you commit to anything, or message on whatsapp and a coordinator will arrange it.
