Water tank waterproofing in Al Majid, Jeddah
Al Majid is a small, simple residential district in east Jeddah near the University of Jeddah, with tanks serving modest apartment blocks and villas. Its distance from main roads means less dust and noise, but proximity to the wadi and low-lying areas means high ground moisture. Waterproofing here protects against slow seeping caused by ground humidity more than by other causes, and the work must account for sub-surface water pressure.

- Food-safe coating materials
- Cracks and gaps filled first
- Inspected before handover
Why tank waterproofing protects your water supply
The district sits near University of Jeddah Road in an area extending toward Asfan, close to Wadi Al Ghawla and low-lying zones that trap groundwater and moisture year round.
-
Seal before a leak develops
In Al Majid, groundwater rises slowly but steadily from the tank base, and waterproofing stops this upward seeping and protects against continuous leakage that is hard to detect early.
-
Repair an existing slow drip
Slow seeping in Al Majid may go unnoticed for months because it originates below ground level, but damage to floors and foundations accumulates quickly once it starts.
-
Keep drinking water free of debris
Thermal stress may be less of a problem here than groundwater, but the two together accelerate seeping at a rapid rate and cause more damage than either alone.
-
Reduce maintenance over time
Tanks in Al Majid benefit from waterproofing that accounts for ground moisture specifically, because standard sealing alone may not withstand the constant upward pressure of high groundwater.

What changes about water tank waterproofing in Al Majid
Tanks in Al Majid show signs of slow, persistent seeping more often than other districts, and exterior building walls stay damp during certain seasons despite no obvious roof leaks. For the whole method, see the full water tank waterproofing page.
-
The first reason
Ground moisture enters tank walls from below, not above
Al Majid is near Wadi Al Ghawla and low land that traps groundwater. Water pressure rises from below, and the tank base and lower walls absorb this moisture. Over time, this causes slow seeping from both inside and outside, and damp spreads to adjacent walls.
-
The second reason
Horizontal cracks form from water pressure beneath the tank
When groundwater rises, it creates upward pressure on the tank floor. This pressure creates small horizontal cracks that are harder to spot than vertical ones, and they leak steadily with no obvious warning signs until water appears on the floor below.
-
The third reason
Groundwater carries minerals and soil contaminants into the tank
Water rising from below carries minerals and impurities from the soil. If it enters the tank, it leaves brown or yellow sediment and changes the taste of the supply. Cleaning stops the symptom but does not stop the source; the tank base must be sealed first.

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.

The character of Al Majid
Mixed district: shops at street level with homes above them
Simple shops at street level with flats above mean that tank seepage reaches shops first. In Al Majid, groundwater adds an extra moisture burden on ground floor commercial spaces, and waterproofing protects from both directions: seepage from above and rising damp from below.
Nearby districts we cover
Questions worth asking first
Proximity to the wadi means high groundwater at certain times of year. Water rises from below and dampens walls. Internal tank sealing stops this moisture travelling up into the flats above, keeping them dry.
If seeping is occurring from below, yes. Groundwater carries minerals from soil. Water may look cloudy or taste metallic. Waterproofing stops contaminated groundwater from entering in the first place.
Yes, if the tank sits on a multi-storey apartment building. Water travels down through cracks and gaps, dampening lower floors. Sealing stops this downward seepage completely.
Yes, the team inspects the tank base particularly for moisture or seeping. If signs are found, both internal and external sealing is often recommended for full protection against groundwater.
Yes, though external sealing may also be needed for full protection. The team assesses the situation and recommends the best approach. Internal sealing stops groundwater from entering the tank interior.
If groundwater is seeping in, quality testing is helpful. Water may carry minerals or soil bacteria. After waterproofing, water quality improves gradually as the new seal holds.
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 Majid.
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.
