What sets this area apart

South Surra houses are typically three or four storeys on deep plots exceeding 40 metres, most completed in the eighties and nineties with medium-sized concrete foundations. Adding a fifth or sixth floor requires strengthening the corner columns and re-evaluating the load on the long beams spanning the interior space. We also check the existing water and electrical networks and confirm the foundations have not settled or cracked.

South Surra sits in Hawalli governorate, a residential district of deep-plot houses offering scope for planned vertical expansion.

Most South Surra house foundations rest on medium-strength soil layers, so we test the soil bearing capacity before designing the additional floor.

Questions about Additional floor in South Surra

How many extra floors can be added to a South Surra house?

It depends on the strength of the existing foundations and columns and on the municipality code for maximum height. Usually one or two floors can be added at most. We conduct a full survey and provide recommendations based on the findings.

Are the old foundations in South Surra safe to carry extra loads?

Usually yes, but they must be tested first. We sample the existing concrete and examine the soil beneath the foundations to confirm there is no settlement or moisture damage.
