Is a slow drain or a damp patch in your office or commercial complex a sign of a sewer leak? In Alkharj, the answer depends on what you are seeing and where, but a persistent slow drain, a sudden smell, or wet flooring near a service line should always be checked rather than ignored. Our service covers drain and sewer leaks for offices and commercial complexes across the city, and the centre of Alkharj sits about 439 m above sea level, which is a useful reminder that drainage here is planned around the local ground and slope rather than assumed to flow on its own.
Our inspection starts with a walk-through of the affected areas to match the symptoms with the building layout, including floor drains, washrooms, kitchen waste lines, and any water storage tanks on the site. Where a tank is involved, we also look at its internal condition, since tank internal coating is quoted at SAR 25–60 per m², and that figure helps owners understand the scale of work if a coating repair is needed. From there, the team checks the line route, tests for leaks, and records findings so you know exactly which section is affected before any digging or repair work is agreed.
Before the visit, it helps to gather a few details that speed up the process. Note when the problem first appeared, which drains are slow or smelling, and whether the wet area is growing or stays the same after rain or heavy use. Share the building plan or any previous maintenance records, and let the site contact know where the main access points and water tanks are located. Clear access to washrooms, service rooms, and the tank area will let the inspection be completed in one visit with a clear written summary for your facility team.
For offices and commercial complexes, work is scheduled to avoid disrupting staff and visitors.

Does an underground tank require waterproofing even if it is new?
Yes, concrete is naturally porous, which can lead to leaks or groundwater seepage. Applying epoxy or cementitious insulation from the start maintains water quality and protects the structure from corrosion.
Do you need to evacuate the building during renovation work?
It depends on the type and scope of the work. Surface work such as plastering and painting usually does not require evacuation, while partial or full evacuation may be advised in cases of structural reinforcement, and the contractor determines this after inspection.
