Rooftop floor addition in Kuwait City
Adding a rooftop floor to older buildings in Kuwait City requires careful structural inspection of the existing roof before any construction work begins. We verify the current frame's load capacity and allowable stresses, then build the new floor with materials and details that ensure the entire structure remains stable.

What sets this area apart
Most residential and commercial buildings in Kuwait City were built three decades or more ago, and their roofs carry only limited loads that were never designed for an additional storey. We require concrete testing and ground-penetrating radar to verify the roof slab thickness, concrete quality and existing reinforcement. After approval from the design engineer and municipality, we strip the old waterproofing and damaged finishes, prop with temporary supports, then frame the new floor with columns and beams that safely carry the added loads.
Kuwait City sits in the Capital governorate and contains older residential and commercial buildings near the Grand Mosque and Kuwait Towers.
Most old building roofs in Kuwait City carry only live loads of 150 to 250 kilograms per square metre, well below what a new storey requires.

Questions about Rooftop floor addition in Kuwait City
Call nowHow do we verify the existing roof can carry an extra storey?
We take concrete samples from the roof for testing and perform ground-penetrating radar to map slab thickness and reinforcement layout, then the design engineer reviews the data and calculates safe load capacity.
What if the roof is weak and cannot support an added floor?
We install additional steel props or remove the weak roof sections and repour them with reinforced concrete and new reinforcement before building the new storey.
