What sets this area apart

Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh is a densely populated residential district with buildings of varying ages and heights, many built in the 1970s and 1980s to standards that may not match current codes. Reinforcement in some buildings is weak or irregularly distributed. Before adding any floor, we take core samples from the roof and columns, and test the soil to understand bearing capacity. We may need to reinforce foundations with concrete injection or footing widening, and strengthen columns and roof by adding new beams and columns. High residential density means work requires close coordination with neighbours and local authorities.

Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh is in Farwaniya governorate, a densely populated residential district near Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh market.

We require written approval from the authorities for any structural modifications before starting reinforcement or pouring work in dense areas.

Questions about Rooftop floor addition in Jleeb Al-Shuyoukh

Call now
Can you add a floor to an older building in a densely populated area?

Yes, but it requires comprehensive and precise assessment of the current structure, often involving extensive reinforcement. It also needs coordination with neighbours and authority approvals before work begins.

What if the current foundations are too weak to support the added floor?

We strengthen foundations using pressurized concrete injection or by widening existing footings with specialized formwork. This requires precise field work and additional municipality approvals.
