Before we start: what we know about Tabuk
The centre of Tabuk sits about 762 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).

Picture a homeowner in Tabuk living in a villa with a flat concrete roof. One night a heavy shower arrives, and a stain spreads across the ceiling of a bedroom below. Water drips into a bucket, the family moves the furniture, and the owner wonders whether the leak can wait until morning or needs a crew straight away. Most people in this position just want the drip to stop quickly without damaging the rest of the house.
The local facts matter here. The centre of Tabuk sits about 762 m above sea level, so it is a high-altitude city where rainfall can arrive in short, intense bursts rather than steady drizzle. A flat roof that drains slowly will hold water on its surface, and that water finds the smallest crack or lifted seal. Roof work is also priced by the square metre, so knowing the rough area that is affected helps you understand what a repair might involve. Liquid roof waterproofing is commonly quoted at SAR 10–25 per m², bitumen membrane at SAR 15–35 per m², and spray foam at SAR 25–35 per m². These ranges help you judge whether a quote is reasonable before any work begins.
Start by moving valuables and electrical items away from the wet area and placing a container under the drip. Switch off power to any fitting that is wet, and do not touch ceiling fixtures while water is present. Next, go onto the roof only when it is safe and dry, and check for ponding, cracked sealant, blistered membrane, and blocked outlets. Clear debris from drains so water can flow away. Photograph the damage, both inside and out, so the record is clear for any later discussion. Finally, arrange a qualified roofer to inspect the source, and ask for a written, itemised estimate that states the area and the method, such as liquid coating, membrane, or crack injection where cracks run along the slab.
The aim is to locate the cause with instruments first, so any opening is limited to one point.
