Epoxy coating & waterproofing for clinics in Makkah
In short: In Makkah (Makkah), epoxy coating & waterproofing for clinics begins with the moisture meter for ceilings and walls and the thickness measurement at spread-out points; nothing is opened until the position is clear. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data). Pricing starts from Epoxy coating (per m²) (SAR 35–95 per m²), and other items are quoted after the visit.
Why epoxy coating & waterproofing differs in Makkah
The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).

Do clinic floors and walls in Makkah need coating or waterproofing, and what does it cost? For most property owners the first step is a site visit, because the right system depends on where the water is getting in. Makkah's centre sits about 301 m above sea level, and that matters less for water than for the daily wear that a busy clinic puts on its floors, washrooms and service areas. Epoxy coating for clinic floors is priced at SAR 35–95 per m², which makes it one of the more common choices for hard-wearing, easy-to-clean surfaces. Where moisture is the real problem, the options are different: basement waterproofing runs SAR 55–160 per m², bathroom waterproofing SAR 15–40 per m², and crack injection SAR 40–125 per m.
Our inspection starts by identifying the source of the problem before any product is recommended. The technician walks the affected areas, checks the condition of the surface, and marks any cracks, damp patches or areas where old coatings are lifting. Cracks are measured along their length, because crack injection is priced per metre. Roof areas are checked for ponding and failed sealant, and any water tanks on site are inspected inside and out, since tank internal coating is priced at SAR 25–65 per m². The inspector also notes the type of surface beneath the proposed work, whether it is concrete, screed or tile, because that decides how the primer and coating will bond. Once the findings are recorded, the options are explained with the range that applies to your specific area, so you can compare the choices before any work is agreed.
To make the visit useful, prepare a few things beforehand. Gather any earlier repair records, previous coating or waterproofing invoices, and a plan or sketch of the clinic showing the floors, bathrooms, roofs and basements concerned. Note where you have seen leaks, staining or peeling, and when they first appeared, since timing often points to the cause. Clear access to the areas to be inspected, including any plant room, store or roof hatch, so the inspector can work without delay. If the clinic is operating, agree with your staff in advance which rooms will be needed and when, because some coatings require the area to stay clear during curing. Having this information ready lets the inspection move quickly and gives you a clearer basis for choosing the right system for your premises.
For clinics, work is scheduled around patient hours and kept to the areas that need it.

Tools and methods, and when we use them
| Method | What it helps with | Its role in Makkah |
|---|---|---|
| Moisture meter for ceilings and walls | Where water is entering now, from inside | Limits: measures the effect, not the water path |
| Thickness measurement at spread-out points | Whether the thickness in the quote was achieved | Limits: for foam and liquid-applied layers |
| Fill test with level monitoring | Whether a tank coating holds after the work | Limits: takes time to monitor the level |
The steps in order
- Surface moisture reading: Epoxy is applied only when the substrate is dry enough.
- Careful preparation: Grinding and cleaning for adhesion.
- Layers: Primer and body coats as specified.
- Inspection: Thickness and curing are checked.

Questions from Makkah
What does finishing work typically include?
It covers plastering, painting, flooring, stone or marble walls, ceilings, gypsum, doors, windows, and final electrical and plumbing installations. You can request full or partial finishing, with the scope clearly defined in the price quote.
Is it possible to renovate the building without evacuating the residents?
In many cases it can be carried out in phases without a full evacuation if the damage is limited. However, for extensive structural renovation, a temporary evacuation may be recommended to ensure safety, and the contractor will explain this in their proposal.
Does waterproofing require removing existing tiles?
It depends on the site condition. Sometimes surface waterproofing can be applied over tiles, while deep leaks require tile removal to treat the layer underneath. A technician will determine the best option after inspection.
