Before we start: what we know about Rastanura

Rastanura is about 0.2 km from the sea coast (OpenStreetMap). Team note on Rastanura: 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..

Is a water tank in a Rastanura warehouse worth waterproofing, given how close the site sits to the coast? Rastanura is about 0.2 km from the sea coast (OpenStreetMap), so salty, humid air is a constant presence, and that exposure is a good reason to look closely at any tank that holds water for daily operations. Tank internal coating is priced at SAR 25–60 per m², which gives owners a clear starting point for budgeting before any work begins. Choosing the right system depends on the tank's condition, its size, and how it is used, so a proper check comes first.

The inspection follows a simple sequence. The technician looks at the tank's walls, floor, and joints for cracks, flaking, or signs of past repair, and marks each defect so the scope of work is clear. Where cracks run through the structure, crack injection is quoted per metre at SAR 40–120 per m, and the length of each crack is recorded on site. The inspector then measures the total surface area to be treated, which allows the internal coating and any related works to be priced per square metre. Epoxy coating, at SAR 35–90 per m², is one of the options discussed at this stage, alongside other systems suited to the tank's condition. The result is a written scope that lists each area, the method proposed, and the rate that applies.

Before the visit, it helps to prepare a few things so the inspection runs smoothly. Gather any earlier repair records, drawings, or notes on when the tank was last cleaned or treated, and tell the team how the tank is used and whether it can be emptied and kept out of service during work. Clear access to the tank and its surrounding area, and make sure the person who signs off on the scope is available to review the findings and the quoted rates on the same day. With these details ready, the site visit can move directly to measurement and a clear, practical proposal for your warehouse.

For warehouses, work is phased around operations and stored goods.

Signs that call for water tank waterproofing

The following signs are worth checking before they grow:

• A tank that leaks after testing
• Deposits and flaking inside the tank
• Unusual colour or taste in the water

Where the problem usually comes from

• Damaged old coating — we check this before anything else.
• A common cause: cracks in the walls or floor.
• Construction joints.

Tools and methods, and when we use them

The steps in order

1. Emptying and ventilation: The tank is emptied and ventilated before entry.
2. Cleaning and preparation: Loose material is removed down to a sound surface.
3. Crack treatment: Active cracks are treated first.
4. Coating layers: A material intended for drinking-water tanks is applied.
5. Disinfection and fill test: The tank is disinfected and the level is monitored after filling.
