What sets this area apart

Most houses in Fahaheel were built on foundations and columns running parallel to the plot depth, and many are three storeys or fewer, meaning a new floor will significantly increase load on the bearing elements. We review the original drawings and materials from the first pour, and test concrete and steel quality where possible, then design the new beams and columns or required reinforcements. Some houses may need foundation underpinning from below if inspection reveals weak load capacity, which means clearing the house and foundational work before pouring the new floor.

Fahaheel sits in Ahmadi governorate, where mid-sized residential houses mix across plots of varying depth near Fahaheel market and the waterfront.

Assessing the existing structure requires a documented engineering report before the additional floor design begins.

Questions about Additional floor in Fahaheel

How do you confirm a house can support a new floor above it?

We inspect the current foundations, columns and beams, review the original drawings, and test the frame concrete where possible, then issue an engineering report detailing the structure's load capacity for the additional weight.

Do foundations need strengthening when adding a new floor?

Yes, if the inspection reveals the foundations lack sufficient capacity. In that case we underpin the foundations below ground before pouring the new floor, which may require temporarily clearing the house.
