What sets this area apart

Zahraa villas are typically multi-storey residential homes with bathrooms and wet areas subject to constant water exposure and high humidity. Water accumulation under old tiles causes erosion of the cement bed and tile failure, so we tap-test surface integrity before adhesive application. Bathroom floor and wall gradients also require open or sloped drainage paths to prevent water pooling under new tiles.

Zahraa is a residential district in Hawalli governorate where multi-storey villas are the dominant building type.

Old tile in wet areas must be tapped for adhesion strength before new adhesive is applied.
