Basement construction in Mirqab

Basement construction in Mirqab is built beneath homes and small commercial complexes on limited plots near the market and Grand Mosque. We excavate carefully around adjacent buildings and create waterproof concrete structures with sealed drainage, delivering a dry basement ready for use.

What sets this area apart

Mirqab is relatively old with houses and small shops tightly packed on narrow plots with buildings on both sides. Excavation in Mirqab is challenging because neighbouring foundations may be shallow and very close, requiring precision hand-digging and temporary shoring of adjacent walls. Old intersecting utility lines also run underground, so we request maps from the municipality and relevant companies and monitor digging carefully. Sealing must be robust as groundwater is near and soil is mixed old sand and clay.

Mirqab is in the Capital governorate near the Central Market and Grand Mosque in downtown Kuwait City.

Minimum vibration and shock during Mirqab excavation is subject to special standards to protect neighbouring heritage buildings.

Questions about Basement construction in Mirqab

How do we safely excavate a basement between very closely spaced old buildings?

We use hand-excavation with light tools, install temporary steel shoring to stabilize neighbouring building walls, and monitor any movement or cracks with precision measuring instruments throughout digging.

Can we build a Mirqab basement if old utilities crisscross underground?

Yes, but we need formal approval from the municipality and the utility companies. We may reroute some lines or design around them depending on approvals.
