About Al-Badiah

Al-Badiah is one of the oldest and largest districts of west Riyadh, located at Exit 28 and bordering Wadi Hanifa on its western and southern sides. Old houses mix with villas, blocks and traditional markets, so insulation work ranges from restoring ageing roofs to insulating shops, with particular attention to damp in buildings nearest the valley. District guide

Why Al-Badiah homes need roof insulation

Al-Badiah lies in west Riyadh along Madinah Road and Imam Abu Hanifa Street, and is dominated by villas, apartment buildings, shops and commercial buildings and older traditional houses. 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. Sitting near a wadi means storm and rain water may collect in places, so falls and drainage are reviewed before insulating. Intense heat most of the year makes roof thermal insulation a core part of the solution, not an optional extra. The fix: a system that tolerates maintenance traffic on equipment-crowded roofs, with precise detailing around bases and penetrations.

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.

Execution plan in Al-Badiah

  1. Inspect the roof, measure the area and check slopes and drains
