Before we start: what we know about Allith

Allith is about 1.2 km from the sea coast (OpenStreetMap).

Before you buy or accept handover of epoxy coating or waterproofing work in Allith, start with the ground itself. The centre of Allith sits about 5 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), and the town is about 1.2 km from the sea coast (OpenStreetMap). Those two facts matter because a site this close to the coast can see salt-laden air and moisture that affects how coatings cure and bond, so the surface preparation and the choice of system should be checked against that exposure before any price is agreed. Ask the contractor to explain how they will handle moisture in the substrate, whether the floor or wall will be tested for it, and what primer they intend to use for a coastal-influenced site.

The rates listed for this area give you a reference point, though they are not a quote for your property. Epoxy coating typically runs SAR 35–90 per m², basement waterproofing SAR 50–150 per m², bathroom waterproofing SAR 15–40 per m², spray foam SAR 20–45 per m², crack injection SAR 40–120 per m, liquid roof waterproofing SAR 8–25 per m², bitumen membrane SAR 15–35 per m², tank internal coating SAR 25–60 per m², and XPS boards SAR 12–30 per m². Use these to check whether a written estimate is within a sensible range for the system being proposed, and be cautious of any figure far outside it. What the site visit must settle is the actual condition of the surfaces: the extent and type of cracking, any signs of water ingress, the state of existing coatings, and the access and working conditions on the day.

Information that helps the technician includes the exact areas in square metres and the length of any cracks in metres, the location of basements, bathrooms, roofs and water tanks, and any history of leaks or previous repairs. Share whether the surface is new concrete, older render or tiles, and whether the space will be in use during works. Confirm who supplies materials, the cure time you can expect before the area is walked on or put back into service, and how the handover inspection will be recorded. Clear answers to these points let the technician price the job accurately and avoid surprises once work begins.

Before buying or taking over a property, an inspection gives you findings in writing before you sign.
