How we build
Quality construction starts with small details
Twelve stages, always in order, each one inspected before the next covers it. That is how we guarantee what you cannot see after finishing.
-
01
Termite treatment
Before anything else, the soil is treated against termites with approved products; treating them after construction is hard and costly.
-
02
Moisture barrier
A polyethylene sheet is laid carefully with generous overlaps to stop ground moisture rising into the concrete.
-
03
Blinding concrete
A layer of plain concrete gives a clean, level base for footing steel and keeps soil away from the reinforcement.
-
04
Footings and foundations
Formwork and rebar for footings, ground beams and necks, set out precisely, then poured and coated with bitumen below ground.
-
05
Columns and plumb checks
Column formwork is fixed and checked for plumb before and after each pour so every column stands true.
-
06
Slabs
Hollow-block slabs with block or polystyrene, or solid slabs as drawn, with rebar and services inspected before every pour.
-
07
Blockwork
Walls go up in level, plumb courses, with lintels over openings and ties into the frame.
-
08
Plaster
Internal and external plaster with true screeds, corner beads and mesh at joints for level, finish-ready walls.
-
09
Exterior paint and profile
The facade is prepared and finished in profile paint, in a texture and colour that suit you and stand up to Riyadh sun and dust.
-
10
Levelling and tiling
Accurate floor levelling, then tiling with levelling clips and correct falls in wet areas.
-
11
Interior finishing
Gypsum ceilings, lighting, paint, doors and bathrooms, with care in every corner.
-
12
Inspection and handover
We walk the building with you room by room and close out every remark before handing it over.
