About Al Iskan

Al Iskan lies south of An Nahdah across King Salman Road, between Al Ufuq to the east and Ar Rawdah to the west. It is known for its green spaces, Al Iskan Lake and nearby King Abdullah Sports City. Its villas and flats have stood for years, so many need renewed roof insulation layers and checks on waterproofing next to irrigated home gardens. District guide

Why Al Iskan homes need roof insulation

Al Iskan in north Buraidah is home to villas and apartment buildings, connected by King Salman 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 city's cold winters and hot summers cause repeated expansion and contraction, so a flexible system is preferred. Intense heat most of the year makes roof thermal insulation a core part of the solution, not an optional extra. The fix: assess the existing system with a moisture survey; restore over it if dry, or strip and rebuild if saturated.

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.
