Before we start: what we know about Buraydah

Team note on Buraydah: 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.. The centre of Buraydah sits about 606 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).

Spray foam work in Buraydah starts with the building itself, and the first thing a technician checks is the altitude and what it means for the structure. The centre of Buraydah sits about 606 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), which means the air is drier and temperature swings between day and night can be wide. Those swings affect how a foam layer expands and holds to the surface, so the crew looks at the substrate, its dryness and its condition before anything is sprayed. Spray foam is quoted at SAR 20–45 per m², and that range reflects how much preparation the surface needs, not a fixed rate for every wall.

Several things are left to the site visit because they cannot be judged from a description. The technician needs to see the cracks, the moisture paths, the thickness of the area to be covered, and how the foam will meet existing finishes, pipes and openings. If the work sits next to other treatments, such as crack injection at SAR 40–115 per metre or a liquid roof system at SAR 10–25 per m², the visit confirms which one is needed where. Rates for basement waterproofing (SAR 50–145 per m²) and bathroom waterproofing (SAR 15–40 per m²) differ widely, so the actual scope can only be set on site. Nothing on this page replaces that inspection.

Information that helps the technician is simple to gather in advance. Note the room or area, its approximate size in square metres, whether it is above ground or below, and any past leaks or damp patches. Say whether the surface is concrete, block or existing insulation, and whether a previous coating was applied. Photographs of the affected surface and any cracks are useful. If the site is connected to a water tank or a roof with an existing membrane, mention that too, since tank internal coating (SAR 25–55 per m²) and bitumen membrane (SAR 15–35 per m²) follow different steps. Clear details at the start shorten the visit and make the final estimate more accurate.

Signs worth paying attention to

These are the signs most often linked to spray foam insulation:

• Thermal and water insulation needed together
• Leaks from the panel joints
• A hot metal-sheet roof or hangar

Where the problem usually comes from

• Joints in metal sheets and sandwich panels — we check this before anything else.
• A common cause: no UV protection on the surface.

Tools and methods, and when we use them

The steps in order

1. Survey: Joints, fixings and gutters are checked.
2. Preparation: The surface is cleaned and dried.
3. Spraying in layers: Foam is applied in passes to the agreed thickness.
4. Protection: A UV-resistant top coat protects the foam.
