What sets this area apart

Most Hateen plots hold single or two-storey villas, many built decades ago at shallower depths. Basement excavation here requires care around wet layers and water-saturated sand, especially in winter when groundwater rises. We use continuous pumping and reinforced concrete walls with bituminous sealing and perimeter drainage to prevent seepage after handover.

Hateen is in Hawalli governorate, a relatively older residential district with scattered villas and apartment blocks on medium-sized plots.

Groundwater in Hateen typically sits between 1.5 and 3 metres below ground level depending on the season.

Questions about Basement construction in Hateen

Call now
How do you manage high groundwater during basement excavation?

We install drainage pumps during excavation and test groundwater levels beforehand. Then we apply bituminous sealing on interior walls and perimeter drainage to protect the finished basement.

Does basement construction affect the existing house foundation?

We inspect existing foundations before excavation and maintain clearance from villa columns. We may reinforce some foundations if they are too close to the dig area.
