What sets this area apart

Mishref is a mid-range residential area with varied buildings from different periods, some older and some mid-age. Plot sizes are moderate and existing frames range from strip to shallow pile foundations. Roof inspection in Mishref includes detecting cracks, settlement and weak reinforcement, and we may add an intermediate column or reinforce existing beams. Available height depends on building location and proximity to nearby schools and parks.

Mishref is in Hawalli governorate near Kuwait University and Mishref Park.

Mid-age buildings in Mishref may need foundation re-assessment to ensure soil stability under additional load.

Questions about Rooftop floor addition in Mishref

Call now
Does proximity to schools and parks affect the feasibility of a rooftop floor?

It may affect the height limit from the municipality and setbacks from protected areas. We check the approved maximum height for the location before designing the new storey.

Do Mishref's mid-range buildings need reinforcement for a rooftop addition?

Usually yes. Most mid-age buildings benefit from beam reinforcement or adding new intermediate columns to better distribute load on foundations.
