What sets this area apart

Hawalli Midan is a relatively old district with mixed administrative, residential and commercial buildings on very narrow plots with low ground levels near the main street. Deep basement excavation under an existing building requires very deep boreholes to understand the layers and groundwater, which may be close to the surface. Retaining walls must be very strong steel and driven deep to support soil and the building above. Work also requires coordination with municipal authorities to maintain traffic flow and public safety on the street.

Hawalli Midan sits in Hawalli governorate, a historic district with an old commercial market and dense administrative and residential buildings.

Groundwater in Hawalli Midan is typically very close to the surface, between 0.5 and 1 metre below ground level.

Questions about Basement construction in Hawalli Midan

Call now
Can you excavate a basement under an existing building on a very narrow plot?

Yes, but it requires very strong steel retaining walls driven deep and temporary bracing of the building during excavation. We bore precisely first and maintain strict safety clearances from foundations.

How do you handle very high groundwater in Hawalli Midan?

We install powerful drainage pumps before excavation and continue pumping throughout the work. We apply thick bituminous sealing and strong perimeter drainage to protect the basement.
