What sets this area apart

Khalidiya plots range from 800 to 1,200 square metres and hold residential homes built from the 1970s onward. Most were not originally designed with organized basements, but excavation beneath an existing house requires structural assessment of the foundations and load-bearing walls first. Groundwater level here is typical for the Capital, and dewatering during digging needs continuous oversight. Effective waterproofing ensures the main building is protected from any seepage.

Khalidiya is located in Capital governorate, a quiet residential area near Khalidiya Co-operative and Khalidiya Park.

Foundations of older Khalidiya homes typically sit at one to one and a half metres depth, affecting the safe digging depth for a basement.

Questions about Basement construction in Khalidiya

Call now
Can you dig a basement below an existing house without affecting the foundations?

Yes, with thorough structural assessment of the foundations and load-bearing walls. We determine the safe excavation perimeter and depth before starting, and provide temporary support if needed.

What is the safe distance between the basement walls and existing foundations?

Usually at least 1.5 metres horizontally from the building's outer foundation line. We calculate it based on soil type and required excavation depth, and document it with the site engineer.
