Water tank waterproofing in Al Barakah, Jeddah
Al Barakah is a south Jeddah residential subdivision split into two halves by Al Lith Road, which local residents describe as poorly connected to each other. Modern villas sit on newly subdivided plots next to stretches of vacant land, and tanks here face both heavy industrial dust from the busy road and pressure from ongoing ground movement beneath new foundations.
- Interior surfaces fully sealed
- Food-safe coating materials
- Cracks and gaps filled first
- Inspected before handover
Why tank waterproofing protects your water supply
Al Lith Road, which divides Al Barakah, carries heavy port traffic and industrial transport. The grey dust with diesel particles that settles from these lorries reaches every villa rooftop on both sides of the main road.
-
Seal before a leak develops
Wide vacant stretches around villas in Al Barakah cause seasonal ground swings that put stress on new foundations. The rooftop tank bears this varying pressure, opening fine cracks quickly.
-
Repair an existing slow drip
Industrial dust from Al Lith Road reaches every villa, so pre sealing cleaning must be thorough to remove all heavy contaminants from the interior walls.
-
Keep drinking water free of debris
Sea humidity penetrates fine cracks all the way to Al Barakah despite its distance inland, and sealing stops moisture entry and keeps the water clean.
-
Reduce maintenance over time
Tank renewal through sealing in Al Barakah saves replacement costs, especially since new villas need stability and freedom from heavy construction activity.

What changes about water tank waterproofing in Al Barakah
Tank cracks in Al Barakah appear more often from unstable ground beneath new foundations than from direct age or household consumption alone. For the whole method, see the full water tank waterproofing page.
-
The first reason
Al Lith Road delivers dense industrial dust daily
Continuous heavy lorry movement from the port on Al Lith Road stirs grey dust heavy with metal particles and diesel. This dust settles on rooftops from both sides of the road and enters tanks through fine cracks. Sealing protects against these very heavy contaminants and keeps the interior clean.
-
The second reason
Road division causes constant ground movement underneath
The main road that bisects Al Barakah and the ongoing construction on both sides cause repeated ground shifting and soil instability. The rooftop tank feels this movement, which opens fine cracks allowing moisture and dust penetration.
-
The third reason
Coastal humidity reaches even inland villa tanks
Although Al Barakah lies inland, sea humidity drifts from the east especially in early morning and dusk hours. This moisture finds its way through small cracks and creates an environment for algae and mould inside the tank.
Landmarks of Al Barakah
Villas in Al Barakah are spread across both sides of Al Lith Road and the Ring Road connection. Teams reach tank sites either from Al Lith Road itself or via 60th Street depending on the exact villa location within the subdivision.

What the tank looks like after
A sealed, smooth interior surface
The coating bonds to the concrete or fibreglass and fills any hairline cracks that were present.
No active leaks or seeping
Gaps that were allowing water to seep through the walls or base are filled and covered.
Food-safe lining throughout
Every applied material is rated safe for contact with drinking water.

What is different about South Jeddah
South Jeddah is the working end of the city: the Islamic Port, the industrial city with its warehouses and workshops, and behind them older low rise districts such as Ghulail and Al Khumrah. The roads are built for lorries, and port and factory traffic runs through the night, so the dust that settles here is grey with diesel and metal filings rather than pale sand. Buildings are mostly older concrete with flat roofs and open stairwells that collect it. Sea humidity keeps it damp, and in summer it sets hard on ledges and cladding.
Nearby districts we cover
Questions worth asking first
Yes, the eastern section is closer to sea moisture. But Al Lith Road carries industrial dust to both sides, so sealing protects villas on both halves from seepage and contamination equally.
Tanks in Al Barakah are individual to each villa, not shared. But lorry vibrations on the road cause ground movement, so cracks appear faster on both sides of the subdivision.
Vacant land causes uneven ground movement, especially where new villas sit next to empty plots. This pressure strains the tank and opens fine cracks that need strong sealing.
Fine cracks do not close on their own; they widen over time because ground movement is ongoing. Sealing closes these cracks and stops seepage from the start.
Yes. Heavy daytime traffic heats the road area and stirs dust, while nights bring greater sea humidity from the coast. The tank faces constant thermal and humidity swings, which sealing protects against.
Water from the treatment plant arrives processed, but a new tank can add industrial dust or particles from fine cracks. Sealing ensures the water is completely clean and safe for daily household use.
It is set after we see the job, because the price follows the kind of work, the size of the space, its condition and the time and materials it needs. Send a photo and a short description on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Barakah.
The duration depends on the tank size and how long the interior needs to dry before coating.
No special preparation is needed on the household's side.
