Saunas & cold plunges in New Cairo

New Cairo is where most of our villa work happens, and it is the easiest ground in Egypt to build on: level plots, modern concrete, vehicle access and, usually, three-phase already at the board.

New build is the cheap moment

A great deal of this work happens while the house is still being finished, which is the cheapest possible time. Drainage with a fall, a three-phase run and a level plinth cost almost nothing in an open trench and a great deal afterwards.

We would rather talk to your contractor in month three than be handed a finished basement with no drain in it.

Compound rules

Most of New Cairo is gated compounds with their own standards for external works, plant noise and contractor access. We prepare the submission — dimensioned drawing, elevation, plant position and a noise figure — because a cabin refused after delivery is an expensive lesson.

Working hours are usually restricted, which adds a few days. That goes in the programme rather than being discovered on day one.

The basement is the best room

Villas here almost all have a lower ground floor, and it is the right place for a wellness suite: stable temperature, no direct sun, services still accessible. The two questions are whether there is a fall to a sewer or we need a pump, and where the extract duct comes out.
