What sets this area apart

Government buildings and commercial offices in Kuwait City were mostly built in the 1980s and 1990s with tiled floors and walls set in weak or unreliable adhesive beds, and demolishing them disrupts daily operations. We test the old tile layer's bond to concrete by tapping and inspection, clean the surface of dust, salt and moisture, then apply strong adhesive and lay new flat tiles level with surrounding floors. This ensures no movement or cracking for years.

Kuwait City is the capital and contains major government and commercial buildings near the Grand Mosque and Liberation Towers.

The old tile bed's bond must be tested before installation; if movement exceeds 5 millimetres, demolition is safer than building over it.

Questions about Tile-over-tile installation in Kuwait City

How do you ensure the old tiles will not fall under the new layer?

We test the old layer by tapping and pressing at multiple points, and clean the surface of all dirt, salt and wide cracks. If we find voids or movement, we remove them first before laying new tiles.

Will the floor level rise if we lay new tiles over the old ones?

Yes, the floor rises by the thickness of new tile and adhesive, usually 1 to 1.5 centimetres. We check doorways, thresholds and doors to ensure they slide freely after installation.
