Additional floor in Gharnata

Adding a floor in Gharnata requires careful structural assessment of the existing foundation and columns before lifting a new storey. We evaluate the house's load-bearing capacity and issue an engineering report before any construction begins.

What sets this area apart

Gharnata consists mainly of single-family villas on individual plots 30 to 40 metres deep, most older structures with thick concrete frames from the 1970s and 1980s. When adding an upper floor, we first inspect the existing concrete quality and column reinforcement, sometimes taking core samples. If the foundation is sound, we design the new storey with additional columns or transfer beams that safely channel the new load into the ground.

Gharnata lies in the Capital governorate on the outer residential suburbs, where single-family villas sit on separate plots away from commercial zones.

Most older villas in Gharnata carry safe loads for up to three storeys under typical 1980s foundation design.

Questions about Additional floor in Gharnata

Call now
How do we know if the house can support an extra floor?

We inspect columns and foundation visually and via concrete samples if needed, then calculate the additional load against the plot's rated soil capacity. If adequate, we issue an engineering report detailing safe procedures.

Do we need to strengthen the foundation before adding the new storey?

We may need cement grouting or add transfer beams depending on soil condition and column state. This is determined after full engineering assessment and final design.
