Rooftop parapet wall in Kuwait - Salhiya

Rooftop parapet wall in Salhiya

Rooftop parapet walls in Salhiya face severe seasonal winds and harsh weather, so they require a strong structure of concrete columns and stone masonry bonded to a prepared roof surface. We clean and seal the roof deck, build the walls with proper setback from the slab edge, and cap the wall with a sloped coping and moisture-resistant coating.

What sets this area apart

Salhiya buildings range from mid-rise residential blocks to hotels and multi-storey commercial complexes, their roofs protected by parapets and windbreak walls against strong winds from the north and west. A good parapet foundation starts by cleaning the deck of dust and loose material, then casting concrete columns at regular intervals, roughly every 1.5 metres, with reinforced stone masonry filling the gaps. The proximity to coastal areas increases salt attack risk, so we choose epoxy coatings and a sloped flat coping with gentle drainage before water penetrates the joints.

Salhiya is in the Capital governorate, where large residential and commercial complexes stand near Gulf Street and First Street.

Parapet concrete columns are cast at regular intervals of roughly 1.5 metres to resist wind pressure and cyclic loads.

Questions about Rooftop parapet wall in Salhiya

How do you protect the parapet from water seepage through the joints?

We fill joints with flexible cement mortar first, then install a sloped water-shedding coping tilted gently inward, and finish with epoxy moisture-resistant coating. This arrangement stops water seepage before it reaches the building deck.

Can the parapet be built on an old roof without a full resurfacing?

Yes, but we must deep-clean the roof of dust and loose layers, repair any deep cracks or voids, then cast the parapet columns directly on the deck with extra mechanical anchoring to ensure stability in wind.
