What sets this area apart

Salmi buildings vary in age and specification, some residential and others older commercial or administrative facilities. Sandy soil in the area may be affected by seasonal changes and moisture from deep wells. We conduct careful inspection of existing foundations, their depth and slab and column thickness before any new design. We also account for harsh climate and strong winds that may affect the stability of the additional floor.

Salmi is in Jahra governorate near the Kuwait-Iraq border crossing, a historic zone with buildings of varying age and use.

We review ground conditions and groundwater before approving any rooftop-addition work in Salmi.

Questions about Rooftop floor addition in Salmi

Call now
Do sandy soil and groundwater affect rooftop addition in Salmi?

Yes, directly. Sandy soil may be unstable and groundwater can affect foundations. We inspect foundation depth and condition and take soil samples before approving the rooftop addition.

Do older buildings in Salmi need reinforcement before rooftop addition?

Often yes. Older buildings may have weak concrete or improper mix ratios. We test them and may need to inject cracks or add reinforcement before the new floor is added.
