Cementitious tank waterproofing in Al Ahsa: A brush applying grey cement-based coat to a concrete tank wall

Cementitious tank waterproofing in Al Ahsa

In Al Ahsa, concrete water tanks face moisture and salts in the soil and air. Al Raya coats the tank walls with a cementitious layer that penetrates the concrete surface and bonds with it, so water cannot seep through.

What the service includes

What cementitious tank waterproofing includes

  • Checking the concrete tank walls to find cracks, pores and leak points
  • Cleaning the inner surface of dust, algae and residue from old coatings
  • Roughening the surface so the cementitious coat grips the concrete wall firmly
  • Treating fine cracks and structural joints before the waterproofing coat is applied
  • Applying the cementitious coat to the dampened wall with care at corners and edges
  • Reviewing the surfaces after application to confirm the coat covers the full wall area
How we work

From your call to a sealed wall

  1. 1

    Tell us about your tank

    Call or message us on WhatsApp, and describe the tank size, its location and what you notice: any damp or cracks in the walls.

  2. 2

    Preparing the concrete surface

    The walls are cleaned of dust, algae and old coating residue, then the surface is roughened so it takes the cementitious coat well.

  3. 3

    Treating cracks and joints

    Fine cracks and structural joints are treated first, because the waterproofing coat alone cannot close an existing crack.

  4. 4

    Applying the cementitious coat

    The cementitious material is applied to the prepared and dampened wall so it absorbs into it, and is worked again over edges and corners for full contact.

About the area

The service in Al Ahsa

Water tanks in homes and courtyards are usually concrete, and damp marks often show on their walls inside and out. Al-Ahsa's soil is moist with salts, which speeds the decay of concrete. Tank treatment starts with cleaning the walls and removing dirt, algae and visible salts, then a cementitious coat is sprayed that fills the pores in the concrete from within. The first inspection tells whether the concrete is sound or has deep cracks needing treatment before coating.

Al Ahsa is a city in Al-Ahsa governorate in the Eastern Province, close to As Saifa District, Ayn Najm District and Al Muhammadiyah District.

The inside walls of the tank are the first to show signs of moisture and seepage.

Questions

Questions about Cementitious tank waterproofing in Al Ahsa

The cementitious material needs moisture in the surface to absorb into it and bond with it rather than drying out on top. If applied to a fully dry wall in the heat, the coat dries before it can penetrate the concrete and the result is weaker.

Yes, cementitious waterproofing systems are designed to resist water pressure from both sides, inside and outside. That is the main difference between a true waterproofing material and a plain cement paint. The surface must be clean and free of old coatings that block bonding.

It depends on the state of the old lining. If it is sound and not peeling it may be assessed for keeping, but if it is loose or flaking it must be removed first, because the cementitious coat needs direct contact with the concrete, not with a failing old lining.

The tank must be emptied, cleaned and prepared before waterproofing in any case. The main advantage of a cementitious material is that it works with damp concrete and does not require the complete dryness that some resin-based materials need.

Tell us whether the tank is a ground tank or an overhead tank, what you can see such as seepage in the wall, damp at the base or a peeling old coat, and whether the tank is currently in use or empty. This helps us assess what the surface needs before the cementitious coat.

Dirt, algae and white salt deposits on the tank walls inside are removed, because the coat must bond with clean concrete, not with a layer of deposits.

Damp indicates water seeping from the concrete, often caused by salts and moisture in the soil around the tank. The tank walls must be inspected to check their condition before treating the seepage.
