What sets this area apart

Ruqqa is a quiet residential area with orderly family plots and spaced-out homes with gardens between them. Basement demand here is lower than in coastal areas, but when built it is for storage and seasonal use. The soil is mixed clay-sand, and groundwater depth varies, distant in summer but rising with winter rains. This requires thorough engineering assessment before starting and a flexible drainage system to handle seasonal fluctuation.

Ruqqa is located in Ahmadi governorate as a quiet inland residential area far from the coast.

We conduct a test borehole at 3 metres depth to assess groundwater fluctuation across seasons.

Questions about Basement construction in Ruqqa

Call now
Does groundwater level change seasonally in Ruqqa?

Yes, it is a real challenge. Water can be deep in summer but rises significantly with winter rains. We measure this with a test borehole before design and size the drainage system for the maximum expected level.

What concrete and waterproofing types suit Ruqqa basements?

We use standard concrete with bituminous waterproofing lining and thick polyethylene membrane. This suits moderate seasonal fluctuation, but we install ventilation and drying gaps to manage high winter humidity.
