Before we start: what we know about Abu Arish
Team note on Abu Arish: Kashf teams serve this city and its nearby districts with the same documented inspection standard: device-based leak detection without demolition, a written report, and a clear scope before any work begins.. The centre of Abu Arish sits about 67 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).
Start with the place itself. The centre of Abu Arish sits about 67 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), which is a useful reminder that ground level here does not mean the water table is high or that the site drains badly; each property needs its own look. Before any figures are discussed, the technician checks the bathroom floor for existing cracks, the state of old sealant around the tray and shower area, and any signs of water staining on the ceiling below. These are the points that decide whether a repair is simple or whether the whole membrane needs replacing.
Several things are left to the site visit, because they cannot be judged from a description. The technician will measure the wet area in square metres so that the bathroom rate can be applied correctly, and will look at whether the surface is tile, concrete or screed. They will also note whether cracks need crack injection, which is priced per metre rather than per square metre, and whether a wall or floor surface would be better finished with epoxy coating or spray foam. Where a bathroom sits above another room, the technician will also decide whether any insulation layer such as XPS boards is needed. None of these choices can be settled from a distance, so the visit is where the scope is confirmed.
Information that helps the technician makes the visit quicker and the quote more accurate. Please have ready the approximate size of the bathroom, the age of the building, any previous waterproofing work and the dates of any leaks you have noticed. Photographs of stains, cracks and the shower area are useful, and so is a note of which rooms are directly below. If a tank or roof is part of the problem, mention it, since liquid roof waterproofing and tank internal coating are priced separately. Clear answers to these questions let the technician give you a realistic range rather than a general estimate.
