What sets this area apart

NW Sulaibikhat is a residential area with closely spaced apartment buildings on relatively narrow plots, most built thirty years or more ago under limited building permits. The existing roof is typically designed for very light live loads and reinforcement may be corroded or insufficient. We use radar surveys to precisely measure roof thickness and reinforcement, and often find that adding a new storey requires complete strengthening of the existing roof before any new concrete work begins.

NW Sulaibikhat is located in the Capital governorate, a zone of closely packed residential buildings in the Sulaibikhat residential area.

Most old building roofs in NW Sulaibikhat do not exceed 18 centimetres thickness with very light reinforcement, requiring careful assessment before any work.

What if the roof needs complete strengthening?

We install temporary steel props, remove old waterproofing and damaged finishes, add new reinforcement and repour weak sections before the new floor is built.

Do we need neighbor approval if the building is adjacent to others?
