Azl — delivered with a written warranty, to the Saudi Building Code
About Uhud
Uhud lies in southwest Riyadh within Ash Shifa municipality, covering about 10 square kilometres, bounded by Dirab Road to the north and Al Khalil ibn Ahmad Road to the east, next to Okaz, Al Fawaz and Uraidh. Its modern layout and contemporary villas suit inverted-roof insulation with polystyrene boards, facade and annex insulation, and upper-floor bathroom waterproofing before finishing. District guide
Why Uhud homes need roof insulation
Villas and apartment buildings define Uhud in south Riyadh, beside Dirab 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. Intense heat most of the year makes roof thermal insulation a core part of the solution, not an optional extra. The fix: an integrated waterproof and thermal system turned up the parapets, detailing every base and opening, then a flood test before covering.
