Does a company in Qatif really need epoxy coating or waterproofing, and how do you know what your building needs? The centre of Qatif sits about 5 m above sea level, and the town is about 2.5 km from the sea coast. That mix of low elevation and nearby coast means damp, salt-laden air and moisture in the ground can affect floors, walls and tanks in commercial premises. For a business owner, the useful question is which surfaces are exposed and what each option costs. Our pricing for this service is set per square metre or per metre, depending on the work. Epoxy coating runs SAR 35–90 per m², spray foam SAR 20–45 per m², and tank internal coating SAR 25–60 per m². Basement waterproofing is SAR 50–150 per m², while crack injection is SAR 40–120 per metre.
Before any work is quoted, the site is inspected step by step. The inspector walks the premises and records the areas that need attention, including basements, bathrooms, roofs, storage tanks and any cracks in concrete. Each area is measured so the quote matches the actual surface, using the unit rates above. Cracks are marked and measured in metres, since crack injection is priced by length rather than area. Roof surfaces are assessed separately, because liquid roof waterproofing (SAR 8–25 per m²) and bitumen membrane (SAR 15–35 per m²) suit different conditions. The inspector then explains which option fits each area and why, so the business can compare choices clearly before agreeing to anything.
To make the visit efficient, prepare a simple list of the areas you want checked and any past problems such as leaks, damp patches or cracks that have appeared. Clear access to basements, roofs and storage tanks in advance saves time, and it lets the inspector measure everything in one visit. Note whether tanks are in use, since internal coating works best when the tank can be emptied and dried. Have floor plans or building drawings ready if you have them, and mention any planned changes to the premises. With this information in hand, the inspection produces a clear, measured estimate that your team can review and approve with confidence.
For companies, an annual contract sets the scope, the visit schedule and the reports in writing.

Tools we use in Qatif
| Tool or method | What it measures | Why it is chosen here |
|---|---|---|
| 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 |
From the first visit to the report
- 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.
