The service in Ibn Dihman
In small settlements like Ibn Dihman, homes often have courtyards and windows close to the ground, with foundations in direct contact with damp and salty soil. Damp rises through the walls, especially around openings and corners, leaving white salt marks and paint cracks. The inspection identifies where damp enters and where it reaches the foundation and joints around water pipes and doors. This is followed by cleaning the wall, removing salts and applying waterproofing material to the foundation and affected areas.
Ibn Dihman is a small settlement in Al-Ahsa governorate in the Eastern Province, close to Muraytibah, Sudah and Al Jishshah.
Courtyards and openings near ground level are where damp and salt marks appear first, and the inspection begins there.

Questions about Foundation waterproofing in Ibn Dihman
External waterproofing stops moisture before it reaches the wall, and it is usually applied during construction before backfill. When the building is standing and re-excavation is not possible, internal waterproofing stops rising damp and treats its effects, though it needs a material suited to reverse water pressure.
Foundation damp comes from the soil around the lower wall and rises upward, bringing white salt marks at the base. Roof or bathroom damp descends from above or seeps in from the side, and the marks appear in different places. Identifying the source is the first step in treating it.
Salts show that water is moving through the wall and carrying minerals from the soil or the concrete. Over time the salt crystals expand inside the wall and break down the paint and plaster and can weaken the surface layer of the concrete. The cause needs treatment, not just a new coat of paint.
A water-resistant paint slows how quickly damp shows on the surface but does not stop the movement of moisture inside the wall. The damp and salts keep working behind the coat and it peels before long. True waterproofing resists water pressure from the soil and either bonds into the concrete or covers it with a layer that can hold that pressure.
Tell us which wall shows the damp and whether it is against the soil on the outside, whether you see white salts or peeling at or near the base of the wall, and whether the damp has been there since the house was built or appeared later. These details help us assess the situation before the inspection.
Water rises from the soil through the foundation and bases that do not protect against it, especially around openings and joints between the structure and wall. The inspection identifies weak points in the foundation.
You will see cracks in paint and tiles at the base and corners, white salt marks on the lower wall, and possibly damp you can feel with your hand. You may notice a faint musty smell near the foundations.
