Before we start: what we know about Bishah
The centre of Bishah sits about 1169 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data). Main roads in or near Bishah: King Saud Road, Riyadh Street.
Picture a homeowner in Bishah whose ground-floor bathroom has begun to show damp patches along the base of the wall and a faint musty smell after rain. Like many owners of older villas and apartments, they are not sure whether the problem is a failed tile grout, a cracked floor screed, or water creeping in from outside. They want a clear idea of what the work might cost before anyone starts, and they want to avoid paying twice for a repair that does not hold.
The centre of Bishah sits about 1169 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), which matters for a bathroom in a practical way. Higher ground in the Asir region can see cooler nights and sudden downpours, and the temperature swings between day and night put stress on tiles, sealants and screeds. For an owner, this means that a bathroom waterproofing system should be chosen for movement as well as for water. Bathroom waterproofing (per m²): SAR 15–40 per m² is the published range for this room type, while spray foam (per m²): SAR 20–45 per m² and epoxy coating (per m²): SAR 35–90 per m² are alternatives an owner may compare, depending on the surface and the finish wanted.
A sensible approach starts with diagnosis. First, look for the source: check whether the damp rises from the floor, runs down from the wall above, or appears only in the shower area. Second, measure the affected area in square metres so that any quote can be compared with the published per-square-metre ranges. Third, if cracks are visible, price them separately, since crack injection (per metre): SAR 40–120 per m is charged by length rather than area. Fourth, ask each contractor to state the system, the number of coats and the protection applied before tiling. Finally, keep dated photographs of the work and of the surfaces before the new layer goes on, so that any later problem can be traced.
