Holistic Restoration & Structural Rehabilitation for Aging, Damaged, and Historically Significant Structures

Time, environment, and use leave their mark on every structure. Arabian Company specializes in comprehensive restoration and rehabilitation that goes beyond repair to fully revitalize buildings and infrastructure. We blend engineering precision with expert craftsmanship to return assets to their original—or enhanced—performance, safety, and aesthetic value.

Our Holistic Philosophy: Conserve, Strengthen, Modernize

True rehabilitation addresses the entire system, not just isolated damage. Our approach respects the original design intent while integrating modern materials and techniques to meet today’s performance, safety, and sustainability standards.

1. Our Comprehensive Restoration & Rehabilitation Scope

We manage complex projects that require multidisciplinary expertise.

  • Structural Rehabilitation & Strengthening:
    Restoring load-bearing capacity to columns, beams, slabs, and foundations through techniques like steel jacketing, CFRP laminates, external post-tensioning, and concrete section restoration. Designed to meet current codes and future demands.

  • Façade & Cladding Restoration:
    Addressing deterioration in building envelopes—from stone repointing and terra cotta repair to curtain wall refurbishment and balcony structural repairs—ensuring weathertight integrity and architectural preservation.

  • Historical & Heritage Conservation:
    Sensitive, research-driven restoration of culturally significant structures using compatible materials and traditional techniques, guided by modern structural engineering to ensure longevity and safety.

  • Post-Damage Disaster Recovery:
    Comprehensive assessment and rehabilitation of structures damaged by fire, blast, impact, or natural disasters, restoring them to safe, functional condition.

  • Functional & Code Compliance Upgrades:
    Modernizing existing buildings with new accessibility features, fire safety systems, seismic retrofits, and energy efficiency improvements as part of the rehabilitation scope.

2. Our Integrated Process

  • Condition Mapping & Forensic Analysis: Detailed investigation using advanced diagnostics to create a complete picture of material degradation, structural deficiencies, and root causes.

  • Integrated Design Development: Our in-house engineers and architects collaborate to produce rehabilitation designs that are constructible, cost-effective, and minimally invasive.

  • Phased Execution with Occupancy in Mind: We develop detailed sequencing plans that allow buildings to remain partially or fully operational, prioritizing safety and minimizing disruption.

  • Material Sourcing & Craftsmanship: We source specialized restoration materials and employ artisans and technicians skilled in both traditional and advanced repair methodologies.

Why Choose Arabian Company for Restoration?

 
 
Engineering-Led Approach Single-Source Accountability Value Beyond Repair
Every project is guided by licensed structural engineers and conservation specialists, ensuring solutions are both technically sound and contextually appropriate. As your main contractor, we manage all trades and disciplines, from initial investigation and design to construction, finishes, and final certification. We focus on lifecycle value, enhancing usability, extending service life by decades, and improving asset value—not just fixing today’s problem.
Heritage & Modern Mastery Minimally Disruptive Protocols Regulatory Navigation
We possess rare expertise in both historical preservation guidelines and modern building code compliance, bridging the gap seamlessly. Our project plans prioritize occupant safety and continuity, using containment, phased work zones, and off-hours work to keep your business or residence functional. We ensure full compliance with all local municipality requirements, historical authority regulations, and international rehabilitation standards.

Case Example: Century-Old Commercial Landmark Rehabilitation

Challenge: A heritage-listed 1920s commercial building showed significant concrete spalling, corroded steel, inadequate seismic capacity, and failing original windows, requiring a solution that preserved its character.
Our Solution:

  1. Conducted archival research, 3D laser scanning, and material testing.

  2. Designed a scheme that included: concrete repair with custom-matched mortar, supplemental steel bracing hidden within walls, seismic base isolation in the basement, and replication of original windows with high-performance glazing.

  3. Executed work under the supervision of the national heritage authority.
    Outcome: The building’s historical character was preserved, its structural safety upgraded to modern codes, operational efficiency improved, and the asset’s commercial value increased by over 40%.

Our Rehabilitation Methodology

  1. Discovery & Documentation – Historical research, comprehensive condition assessment, and 3D documentation.

  2. Analysis & Planning – Structural analysis, develop rehabilitation strategy, and define project phasing.

  3. Design & Detailing – Prepare engineered construction drawings, specifications, and material samples.

  4. Execution with Precision – Careful execution of structural, architectural, and system upgrades with continuous quality control.

  5. Finishes & Reintegration – Application of final finishes, restoration of architectural details, and reinstatement of services.

  6. Certification & Stewardship – Final inspections, issuance of completion and compliance certificates, and provision of a long-term maintenance plan.
