Rooftop floor addition in Kuwait - Faiha

Rooftop floor addition in Faiha

Rooftop additions to villas and small apartment blocks in Faiha require thorough structural inspection because most buildings were built to older construction standards. We verify the existing roof's strength and load-bearing capacity, then hand over the new storey compliant with building codes and safe.

What sets this area apart

Faiha is a quiet residential area with small villas and three- to four-storey apartment blocks on medium-sized plots. Villas especially have roofs designed only for one household load, not a full residential floor, requiring careful inspection and possible strengthening. The small blocks were also built before the municipality set higher load standards, so we use radar surveys and concrete testing to assess the frame and re-pour weak roofs if needed.

Faiha lies in the Capital governorate, a residential area surrounded by Faiha Park and small shops.

Villa roofs in Faiha typically do not exceed 20 centimetres thickness with light reinforcement, which must be assessed before any addition.

Questions about Rooftop floor addition in Faiha

Call now
Can we add a floor to an older villa in Faiha?

Yes, but only after thorough roof inspection. We perform concrete testing and radar surveying; if the roof is weak we strengthen it with additional reinforcement or repour before building begins.

What about setbacks and maximum height allowed in Faiha?

We review the original building permit and approved setbacks for the plot, and the municipality calculates new height from street level. Municipal approval of the addition plan is required before structural inspection begins.
