Before we start: what we know about Khobar

Team note on Khobar: 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 Khobar sits about 9 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).

Khobar is about 1.8 km from the sea coast (OpenStreetMap).

The first thing checked for a rest house or farm in Khobar is the building's exposure to the coast and to the ground. The centre of Khobar sits about 9 m above sea level, and the city is about 1.8 km from the sea coast. Those two facts shape the first questions: how much salt-laden air reaches the walls and roof, and whether the lower parts of the structure are likely to meet moisture from the ground. A rest house on a plot near the shoreline and a farm store further inland can call for different approaches, so the technician begins by mapping where the building sits relative to these conditions before any material is discussed.

Several matters are left to the site visit, because they cannot be judged from a desk. These include the actual condition of the roof and walls, any cracks that have opened, how water currently moves through the structure, whether there is a basement or tank, and how the building is used day to day. The technician will also look at the roof slope and drainage, the state of any existing insulation, and how far the work can be done without disturbing stored goods or livestock areas. Costs for the different types of work vary widely, from crack injection at SAR 40–120 per metre to liquid roof waterproofing at SAR 10–25 per m², so the visit is where the scope is confirmed and the right options are narrowed down.

To help the technician prepare, it is useful to have the building's plans or a rough sketch, the approximate floor area of the roof, walls and any basement, and a note of where leaks or damp patches have appeared. Photographs taken after rain, along with the dates of any previous repairs, are also helpful. Tell us whether the space is a warehouse, a rest house with occupied rooms, or a farm building housing animals, since this changes the materials that suit the job. Information on access, parking and the hours when work can be done without interruption will also save time on the day.

Rest houses and farms often have long buried lines, tanks and irrigation that need separate tests.
