Why bathroom waterproofing differs in Aldiriyah
Team note on Aldiriyah: 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 Aldiriyah sits about 655 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).
Before any quote is discussed for a restaurant bathroom in Aldiriyah, the first check is the elevation of the site and what it means for drainage. The centre of Aldiriyah sits about 655 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), so the technician looks at how water moves across the floor and out of the building rather than assuming it will pool. Because bathroom waterproofing is priced at SAR 15–40 per m², the area measured on the day is the main driver of the figure, so the surface to be treated is measured carefully before anything else is decided. Floor falls, floor drain positions and wall junctions are noted first, since a membrane that sits on a poor fall will hold water and fail sooner than the material itself.
The details that depend on the actual room are left to the site visit. The technician checks whether the existing tiles are sound, whether the screed is cracked or hollow, and whether there is any sign of old leaks behind the walls. The choice between a liquid system, a sheet membrane or a spray-applied layer is also made on site, because each suits different substrates and each carries its own price range; spray foam sits at SAR 20–45 per m², epoxy coating at SAR 35–90 per m², and bitumen membrane at SAR 15–35 per m². Any cracks that need sealing are measured on the spot, since crack injection is charged per metre at SAR 40–120 per m. Nothing here should be fixed from a photograph alone.
To help the technician, the restaurant should have the following ready when the visit is booked: the room layout with drain positions, the age of the existing finish, any history of leaks in the rooms below or beside it, and the hours the bathroom can be out of use. Access to the floor below, if it is a shared ceiling, should be arranged in advance. Knowing whether the work must be done in stages, so the restaurant can keep serving guests, lets the technician plan the materials and the sequence. Clear notes like these make the written estimate more accurate and reduce surprises once work begins.
For restaurants, visits are planned outside service hours and recorded for the premises file.
