Roof gardens in Kuwait - Zahraa

Roof gardens in Zahraa

Roof gardens in Zahraa are built on residential apartment blocks of 4 to 6 storeys, where the roof must be fully waterproofed before soil and planting go in. We select plant species that withstand high heat and dry winds year-round.

What sets this area apart

Zahraa rooftops are broad and flat on both older and newer apartment buildings, requiring an initial structural survey to ensure the existing frame can support added soil and moisture loads. We lay a waterproofing membrane of bitumen or flexible sheeting over concrete, then a mechanical protection layer, then soil mixed with lightweight drainage material to prevent water pooling. Selected plants are succulents and drought-tolerant species, with irrigation through drip or controlled spray systems to avoid overwatering in Kuwait's arid climate.

Zahraa sits in Hawalli governorate, a residential district of medium-rise apartment buildings on regular-sized plots.

Most residential building roofs in Zahraa can support an added live load of 150 to 250 kilograms per square metre after structural evaluation.

Questions about Roof gardens in Zahraa

Call now
Can a roof garden be built on an older residential building?

Yes, but we conduct an initial structural survey to assess the existing roof's capacity. If the frame is adequate, we carefully add waterproofing, protection, and soil layers to distribute load evenly.

What plants suit rooftop gardens in Kuwait's climate?

We select succulents and drought-tolerant species like aloe, purslane, and tamarisk, and use drip irrigation to minimise water loss from evaporation in high heat.
