About Al Arin

Al Arin lies in northern Abha between King Abdulaziz Road and King Fahd Road, next to Al Muruj and Al Mansak, and is known for its wide area and natural scenery. Its modern residential character makes villas the main building type, and their roofs, exposed to rain and cold winds, need a combined waterproofing and thermal system installed during construction or added over the slab later. District guide

Why Al Arin homes need roof insulation

Villas and apartment buildings define Al Arin in north Abha, beside King Abdulaziz Road. Villa roofs are wide, multi-level and crowded with AC bases and annexes, and every joint or opening is a weak point for rain or AC condensate. The altitude brings heavier rain and day–night temperature swings, so flexible materials and careful expansion joints are preferred. The city's cold winters and hot summers cause repeated expansion and contraction, so a flexible system is preferred. The fix: an integrated waterproof and thermal system turned up the parapets, detailing every base and opening, then a flood test before covering.

Materials and specifications

  • Bituminous membrane (rolls): Durable torch-applied waterproofing, suited to large concrete roofs.
  • Spray polyurethane foam: Seamless thermal and waterproof layer in one; needs a UV-protective topcoat.
  • Liquid acrylic or polyurethane coating: Flexible layer ideal for maintenance and detailed roofs.
  • Extruded polystyrene boards (XPS): Compression-resistant thermal insulation under tiles.

We select products conforming to the relevant Saudi standards and apply them per the manufacturer's datasheet.
