Why epoxy coating & waterproofing differs in Alnuayriyah

Main roads in or near Alnuayriyah: King Abdulaziz Road. The centre of Alnuayriyah sits about 49 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).

Team note on Alnuayriyah: 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..

Before any quote is given for a restaurant floor or wall in Alnuayriyah, the first thing checked is the ground the building sits on. The centre of Alnuayriyah sits about 49 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), which tells us the site is not a low-lying basin, but it does not tell us how water moves below the slab, so the technician still reads the surface and drainage around the unit. Epoxy coating for kitchen and dining floors is priced at SAR 35–90 per m², and the choice within that range depends on traffic, grease exposure and how often the floor is washed down with hot water. Because restaurant kitchens take heavy cleaning and spills, the first inspection looks at whether the existing floor is sound enough to take a coating at all.

Several things are left to the site visit, because they cannot be judged from a description. The technician needs to see the actual state of the substrate, including any cracks, hollow areas or old coatings that may be lifting. Crack injection, priced at SAR 40–120 per metre, is only chosen once the crack has been seen, measured and traced to find whether it is moving. The same applies to the separate jobs on the same site: a bathroom at SAR 15–40 per m², a basement at SAR 50–150 per m², or a flat roof, where liquid waterproofing runs SAR 8–25 per m² and bitumen membrane SAR 15–35 per m². Spray foam at SAR 20–45 per m² and XPS boards at SAR 12–30 per m² are also chosen on site, not from a phone call. If the restaurant has a water tank, the internal coating at SAR 25–60 per m² is decided only after the tank is emptied and opened.

To help the technician, it is useful to have the following ready before the visit: the floor and wall areas in square metres, the length of any cracks in metres, the age of the building, and a note of where water has been seen, such as after rain, after washing down, or from a leaking pipe. Photographs of the affected surfaces and of any drains help a great deal. Tell the technician which areas run kitchen equipment, which areas are walk-in or cold rooms, and when the restaurant can close for work, since coatings need dry, clear surfaces and time to cure before service resumes.

For restaurants, visits are planned outside service hours and recorded for the premises file.

Tools and methods, and when we use them

From the first visit to the report
