What sets this area apart

Funaitees homes are typically medium-sized plots with two storeys built in the 1990s and early 2000s on mixed clayey soil. The relatively modern frame is usually stronger than in older areas, but clay soil requires special attention to foundation settlement due to clay expansion and shrinkage. We inspect the footings and depth to ensure the additional storey is not affected, and consult the engineer on the need for foundation reinforcement or raising the existing footings.

Funaitees is in Mubarak Al-Kabeer governorate, a residential area of detached family homes near Mubarak Al-Kabeer centre.

The clayey soil in Funaitees requires adequate foundation depth and settlement study before adding any new storey.

Questions about Third-floor addition in Funaitees

Call now
Does clayey soil affect the feasibility of building a third floor?

Yes, clay soil expands and shrinks, which can cause uneven settlement. We inspect the current foundation depth and consult the engineer on whether the footings need reinforcement or deepening before the storey addition.

How long does structural assessment take before approving the addition?

Assessment involves site visit, measurement, sampling and laboratory tests. The timeframe depends on the home's size and testing complexity, and is coordinated by the consulting engineer.
