Basement construction in Kuwait - Siddiq

Basement construction in Siddiq

Basement construction in Siddiq requires deep excavation beneath the house with full waterproofing in a densely built residential zone. We plan the below-grade levels and control groundwater seepage through multiple waterproof layers, then finish the space ready for use.

What sets this area apart

The residential plots in Siddiq are medium-sized, and most existing villas have simple shallow foundations with no basement. Excavating a basement under a standing villa means reinforcing the existing foundation first and bracing the side walls to prevent settlement. Groundwater in the area is deep but present, so we install perimeter drainage systems and bituminous and plastic waterproof membranes on the floor and walls.

Siddiq sits in Hawalli governorate, a district of closely spaced residential villas with high building density and scattered commercial services.

A typical basement in Siddiq goes down 1.5 to 2 metres below the villa's original ground floor level.

Questions about Basement construction in Siddiq

Call now
Can you dig a basement under an existing residential villa without weakening its foundations?

Yes, but we must first inspect the soil and existing foundation and reinforce it if needed with side concrete walls. We excavate in phases with each stage braced before proceeding, and temporary supports are placed beneath the existing foundation.

How do you stop groundwater seeping into the new basement?

We install a perimeter drainage system around the foundation that collects and diverts water away, and apply multi-layer waterproofing to the floor and walls using bituminous and plastic membranes, with ventilation openings for moisture control.
