What the service includes

What bitumen roof waterproofing includes

  • Checking the roof surface and identifying points that need extra preparation before the rolls go down
  • Cleaning the surface and removing failing layers and dirt that would weaken the bond
  • Laying bitumen rolls with enough overlap at every seam between one strip and the next
  • Sealing the roll edges at the parapet on both the horizontal and vertical faces
  • Treating the specific points around drain bases, pipes and AC unit stands
  • Confirming the layer is continuous with no break from the centre to every edge
How we work

From your call to the sealed roof

  1. 1

    Describe what you see

    Call or message us on WhatsApp and tell us what shows on your ceiling or roof surface. We will guide you to the next step.

  2. 2

    Preparing the surface first

    The job starts by cleaning the surface of dirt and failing layers, because a roll only bonds well to a clean, sound base.

  3. 3

    Laying and overlapping the rolls

    The rolls are laid in parallel strips and each strip overlaps the next at the edge, because the seam between two strips is the most vulnerable point in any bitumen covering.

  4. 4

    Sealing the edges and penetrations

    The membrane edges are sealed at the parapet and around every drain base, pipe and AC stand, because these specific points are where water most often enters.

About the area

The service in Ash Shuqayq

Roofs on homes and buildings in a district like Ash Shuqayq are usually flat and concrete, exposed to intense summer heat, and when rare rain comes it finds cracks, joints, the parapet edge and drains. Bitumen rolls create a continuous sealed layer covering the whole roof, sticking at every joint and corner, so no gap remains. Before laying, the roof is cleaned of dust, sand and debris, and edges, joints and corners are prepared with care, because the quality of the seal decides whether the roof is truly protected.

Ash Shuqayq is a district in Al-Ahsa governorate in the Eastern Province, close to Al Mutayrifi, Al Qurayn and Julayjilah.

Joints between concrete panels and corners around the parapet are the first places water enters when the seal weakens.

Questions

Questions about Bitumen roof waterproofing in Ash Shuqayq

Bitumen rolls suit flat concrete roofs in most cases. A very sloped roof or one finished with tiles needs a different assessment. The surface should be sound and free of deep cracking before the rolls go down; otherwise it needs extra preparation first.

The middle of the roof is usually flat and continuous. At the parapet, the horizontal membrane meets the vertical wall, forming a joint that moves with heat expansion and contraction. If that edge is not sealed well, water usually finds its way in there.

Clean, sound concrete usually needs a primer coat to open its pores and improve how the roll bonds to it. Laying a roll on an unprepared surface weakens the bond and leaves the layer prone to separating over time, especially with the temperature range.

The seam between two strips breaks the continuity of the waterproof layer. If the strips do not overlap enough and the edge is not pressed down until it bonds, a fine gap remains. That gap opens in summer heat and closes again, and water finds its way through it in every rainfall.

Bitumen suits a flat concrete roof that lets water in and needs a flexible protective layer that handles thermal expansion. If the problem is mainly heat with no visible water entry, another material may be more suitable. An initial assessment of the roof is what determines the right choice.

If you see damp stains on the ceiling or upper walls, cracks in the concrete roof, or water seeping around joints at the drains or parapet, the roof needs checking and waterproofing.

Explain where damp stains appear in the home, whether the leak is around the parapet or drains or at a specific corner, and send a photo of the roof if you can to show the cracks and joints.
