What sets this area apart

Buildings in old Jahra are relatively aged with shallow foundations by modern standards, often sitting very close to plot boundaries. Excavation here requires monitored hand digging near adjoining structures, then smaller machines for main cuts. Soil here is mixed sand, clay and small stone. During backfill, we use approved materials and light compaction rather than heavy rollers to avoid vibrations affecting old foundations. We coordinate closely with the site engineer and neighbours.

Old Jahra lies in Jahra governorate, a historic district of older buildings near Al Jahra Fort.

Old building foundations in old Jahra typically sit only 40 to 60 centimetres deep.
