Water tank waterproofing in Al Rawabi, Jeddah
Al Rawabi in south Jeddah comprises an older section along Old Makkah Road and a newer neighbourhood crossed by Bin Laden Road, with high residential density and many large tanks on building roofs serving multiple households.

- Food-safe coating materials
- Cracks and gaps filled first
- Inspected before handover
Why tank waterproofing protects your water supply
The district contains dense apartment buildings with tanks of varied sizes and widely differing ages and conditions.
-
Seal before a leak develops
Large tanks in apartment buildings throughout Al Rawabi carry high water pressure from their contents, causing cracks to develop faster than in smaller systems.
-
Repair an existing slow drip
Mixed old and new buildings in the district contain tanks in very different conditions that require individual careful inspection.
-
Keep drinking water free of debris
Leakage from a single tank in a building affects multiple apartments, making fast repair urgent to protect neighbouring residents.
-
Reduce maintenance over time
Waterproofing protects the tank, the water supply and all surrounding building structures from ongoing damage caused by continued seepage.

What changes about water tank waterproofing in Al Rawabi
Al Rawabi tanks show similar leakage patterns across the district because the buildings and climate are uniform throughout. For the whole method, see water tank waterproofing in detail.
-
The first reason
High density drives demand for large tanks
Dense neighbourhoods require large tanks holding water for many more households than single homes. These tanks face higher water pressure, and cracks often begin from this extra stress. Waterproofing protects tank walls from the inside against seepage.
-
The second reason
Mixed building ages require careful inspection
Al Rawabi holds buildings from the 1970s and 1980s alongside modern towers built after 2010. Their tanks differ in construction and condition, and inspection determines what each needs.
-
The third reason
Leakage affects multiple families at once
In dense districts, a single tank serves several apartments, and a small leak damages ceilings and walls in multiple homes. Immediate waterproofing stops damage before it spreads.

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
Damp spots on ceilings or upper walls in lower-floor apartments are clear signs. Musty odours or mould under the ceiling mean the leak is ongoing.
Yes, the building tank serves several apartments, and a leak damages walls and ceilings in many homes at once.
Yes, but at scheduled times coordinated with building management. Draining usually happens at night to minimise disruption to residents.
A building tank takes longer than a home tank. Size and careful inspection require eight hours or more.
Older building tanks are usually weaker, and inspection determines whether additional repairs are needed before waterproofing begins.
Yes, but coordination is essential because the tank will be empty and water loss will inconvenience residents. Management helps schedule the best time.
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 Rawabi.
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.
