Does a company with a large roof in Alqunfudhah need its waterproofing checked every year, and is an annual contract worth the cost? The answer starts with the location. The centre of Alqunfudhah sits about 7 m above sea level, and the town is about 0.4 km from the sea coast. Both facts matter for a roof that takes sun, wind and salt air year after year. For a company responsible for a building, a yearly service plan keeps small leaks from turning into costly repairs and gives a clear record of the roof's condition.
Our annual contract for roof waterproofing covers the full roof surface and its details. Liquid roof waterproofing is priced at SAR 8–25 per m², and bitumen membrane at SAR 15–35 per m². Where the roof has cracks, crack injection is priced at SAR 40–120 per m. The inspection visit follows a set order: we walk the whole roof and mark ponding areas, check the edges, parapets and drain outlets, and look closely at every joint and crack. We then test the existing coating for lifting or bubbling and record each finding with photos and measurements, so the building owner can see exactly what needs attention and when.
Before the visit, please clear access to the roof and remove loose items such as stored equipment and debris from drains. Gather any earlier waterproofing records, warranty papers, and details of the materials used on the roof, since these help us judge how the existing layers have aged. Note any areas where water has entered the building during rain, including the rooms below and any ceiling stains. If the roof also has water tanks, tell us so we can plan a check of the tank interior, where tank internal coating is priced at SAR 25–60 per m². Having this information ready lets the inspection focus on real problems and gives your company a clear, costed plan for the year ahead.
For companies, an annual contract sets the scope, the visit schedule and the reports in writing.
