What sets this area apart
Sha'ab is a coastal residential district with homes on medium plots, mostly three storeys high, but the soil is clay and very wet and groundwater sits high near the surface. This means foundations are vulnerable to moisture saturation and corrosion, especially with poor ventilation under the building. When adding a storey we inspect foundations more carefully, reapply waterproofing to basement walls, and may install new drainage or pumps in the excavation to manage groundwater during reinforcement work.
Sha'ab is in Hawalli governorate, a coastal residential district near Sha'ab Park and the beachfront.
Groundwater in Sha'ab typically sits at 0.8 to 1.2 metres below surface, and we manage drainage with pumps during any reinforcement excavation.

Questions about Additional floor in Shaab
Call nowDoes high groundwater affect foundation reinforcement?
Yes, high water requires continuous pumping during excavation and underground work, and we often reapply basement wall waterproofing to prevent future leakage.
What if the foundation has corroded from moisture?
We test concrete and steel corrosion through samples and site assessment; if corrosion is severe we inject the foundation or add external reinforcement before building the new storey.
