Groundwater Dewatering in Jeddah

About this service

High groundwater is one of the most common reasons building projects stall in Jeddah. We lower the water to the required level using dewatering wells, pumps and hose networks, so excavation and foundations are carried out on dry, safe ground.

We keep the pumping system running throughout digging and pouring, and check the water level every day so the contractor's work is never held up and the concrete quality is not affected.

What is included

Measuring the groundwater level on site
Drilling dewatering wells around the pit
Installing pumps and hose networks
Continuous operation until pouring is finished
Coordination with shoring to protect the walls
Orderly discharge of water away from the site

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if my site needs dewatering?

If water appears in the pit before you reach the required depth, or the district is known for high groundwater. We survey, measure the level and propose a solution.

How long does dewatering run?

Usually for the whole period of digging and pouring the foundations and basement, according to the project schedule.

Does dewatering affect neighboring buildings?

We design the dewatering system together with suitable shoring to minimise any effect on neighboring buildings.
