Tarout sits close to the coast, with its centre about 3 m above sea level, and the coastline is roughly 0.9 km away. For restaurant bathrooms, that combination means moisture from the sea air and from heavy daily use can reach floor edges and wall junctions quickly, so the technician checks the drainage and the low points first. Before any product is chosen, the first things looked at are the floor falls toward the drain, the condition of the joints between wall and floor, and any signs of water already tracking behind the tiles. A restaurant bathroom is washed down often and sees constant traffic, so these points decide whether a coating will last.
Several things are left to the site visit, because they cannot be judged from a description. The technician measures the actual wet area in square metres, which sets the cost range for bathroom waterproofing at SAR 15–40 per m², and decides whether a coating such as epoxy at SAR 35–90 per m² is needed in high-traffic spots. Cracks are inspected in person, since crack injection is priced per metre at SAR 40–120 per m, and any hairline or structural crack needs to be seen before it can be sealed. The condition of the existing surface, whether it is sound, dusty, or laminated, also determines whether spray foam at SAR 20–45 per m² or another system is suitable.
To help the technician arrive prepared, the restaurant owner or manager should share a few details in advance. Note which bathrooms or back-of-house washrooms are affected, how often they are cleaned with water, and where leaks or damp patches have been noticed. Let the technician know if the space sits below a kitchen or storeroom, and whether any roof or tank work is planned nearby, since liquid roof waterproofing at SAR 8–25 per m² and tank internal coating at SAR 25–60 per m² are priced separately. Clear access to the drain, the water supply, and the walls on all sides will let the visit cover everything in one session.
For restaurants, visits are planned outside service hours and recorded for the premises file.
