What is specific about Allith for floor & balcony waterproofing

The centre of Allith sits about 5 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).
Would a restaurant owner in Allith really need waterproofing for the floor and balcony, given how the town sits? The answer starts with the land 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). That mix of low elevation and nearby coast means salt-laden air and damp ground are part of daily life here, and kitchen floors, drains and outdoor balconies that are wet every service take the strain. For a restaurant, a leaking floor or balcony can mean stained ceilings in the dining room below, slippery surfaces and lost trading hours, so a clear picture of the problem comes first.
Our inspection follows a set order. We begin by walking the floor and balcony to find cracks, low spots where water pools, and joints around drains, wall edges and fixtures. Cracks are measured in metres, because crack injection is priced per metre at SAR 40–120 per m, and the team notes where each one runs. We then assess the surface area, since most treatments are quoted per square metre. Where the balcony is open to the weather, we check its roof-style covering separately, as liquid roof waterproofing is priced at SAR 8–25 per m², and we compare that with bitumen membrane at SAR 15–35 per m² or spray foam at SAR 20–45 per m². The inspection ends with a written summary of which areas need which method, so you can see each option before any work is agreed.
Before the visit, gather a few things that make the inspection faster and the quote more accurate. Have the restaurant floor plan and the balcony dimensions ready, or at least rough measurements of length and width. Note any areas where water has already appeared, such as ceiling stains below the floor, and when it tends to happen during service. If you have past repair records or photos of cracks, keep them to hand. Clear the floor and balcony of equipment where you can, and let us know which days trading is quietest, so the team can plan the work around your opening hours.
For restaurants, visits are planned outside service hours and recorded for the premises file.
