What sets this area apart

Sabah Al-Ahmad City features modern villas on regular, well-spaced plots with approved planning and wide setbacks. Most were built on a concrete frame with columns and footings designed for one or two storeys only, so adding a second floor requires reviewing the original load calculations to see if the foundations and columns can handle the extra weight. If they cannot, we may need to strengthen the foundations or replace some columns before construction begins.

Sabah Al-Ahmad City lies in Ahmadi governorate, a carefully planned coastal development area.

We request the original building drawings and a structural inspection report from the original contractor before starting any strengthening or addition work.

Questions about Second-floor addition in Sabah Al-Ahmad City

Call now
How do we confirm the foundations can carry an extra second floor?

We take soil samples around the villa, inspect the depth and type of the original footings, and calculate the total new load. If they are insufficient, we strengthen them before construction.

Does strengthening the foundations delay the second-floor addition project?

Strengthening adds stages, but it is necessary for structural safety. We plan it with the initial inspections so it becomes part of the overall schedule.
