Wondering whether an old restaurant building in Khafji can be brought back to a safe, working condition without starting from scratch? In most cases, a careful restoration is the practical answer. The centre of Khafji sits about 9 m above sea level, and the town lies roughly 2 km from the sea coast. Both facts matter for a restaurant owner, because the coastal air carries salt and moisture that can slowly attack metalwork, plaster and fittings, so the building needs a closer look than a similar inland property would.
Our inspection starts with a walk through the whole premises, kitchen, dining area, storage and any rooftop or service spaces. We check walls, floors and ceilings for damp, salt staining and cracking, then review the condition of extraction hoods, drainage, electrical panels and water lines that serve the kitchen. Where a surface problem is found, we note how far it extends so the restoration can be priced accurately. Each maintenance visit is charged at SAR 150–400 per visit, depending on the size and complexity of the site, and restoration work is quoted at SAR 50–150 per m², with the final figure set after the survey shows the real scope.
Before the visit, gather what helps us work quickly. Have the building plan or any drawings you hold, a list of recent repairs, and notes on any leaks, odours or areas that stay damp. Clear access to the kitchen service lines and the roof hatch if there is one, and tell us which days the restaurant is closed so work does not interrupt service. A short written list of the problems you have already noticed will let us focus the survey and give you a clear, usable quote.
For restaurants, visits are planned outside service hours and recorded for the premises file.
