Second-floor addition in Kuwait - Faiha

Second-floor addition in Faiha

Adding a second floor to an existing residential house in Faiha begins with a comprehensive inspection of the columns, foundations and current structure. We verify the frame can handle the added loads, then pour the new floor with modern-standard materials and reinforcement.

What sets this area apart

Most Faiha villas were built in the 1970s and 1980s as single or two-storey homes with light steel reinforcement and no vertical provisions for future expansion. We review the original design drawings if available; otherwise we take precise field measurements of columns and foundations. Then we calculate new loads and determine whether local reinforcement is needed before pouring begins.

Faiha lies in the Capital governorate, a quiet residential neighbourhood of detached villas and wide streets near Faiha Park.

Most older Faiha villas have square concrete columns of 40×40 cm section or smaller.

Questions about Second-floor addition in Faiha

Call now
Do we need drawings from the original designer for the addition?

If original design drawings exist, they speed up the assessment. If not available, we take precise field measurements and study the existing structure, then draw the new design for the additional floor.

Does adding a floor to an old villa always require foundation strengthening?

Not always. If foundations are deep, soil is good and columns are adequately sized, strengthening may not be needed. But we assess each case individually based on engineering calculations.
