Shwran is a residential district about 15.4 km from the centre of Madinah, with its centre at 24.3953, 39.6236 and an approximate radius of 2.7 km. Its villas sit on fairly open ground, so the service plan should begin with a site visit that notes how far each property is from the main city services and how easily technicians can reach the roof and boundary walls. Because the district is spread out, we recommend scheduling visits by street rather than by individual villa, which keeps travel time low and makes the annual contract easier to manage.
The centre of Shwran sits about 658 m above sea level, according to SRTM open elevation data. At this height, villas are exposed to strong daytime heat and cool nights, which accelerates the drying and cracking of exterior paint, sealants and roof coatings. Our maintenance visits therefore give priority to checking roof membranes, window seals and external render each year, and the contract includes a seasonal inspection so that small cracks are sealed before they widen. The nearest wadi channel is about 0.9 km from the centre of Shwran, according to OpenStreetMap. Owners living close to a channel should expect occasional dust and, after heavy rain, runoff, so drainage outlets, gravel beds and perimeter walls are checked after every wet period. Keeping these outlets clear protects foundations and garden walls from water damage.
Owners who sign annual contracts in Shwran tend to avoid a few predictable problems. They do not postpone roof inspections until a leak appears, and they do not let dust build up in air-conditioning filters, which strains the units during the hottest months. They also avoid leaving external wall repairs until restoration becomes urgent: a maintenance visit in the range of SAR 150–400 per visit is usually far cheaper than later restoration, which typically costs SAR 50–150 per m². Finally, they do not ignore drainage on sloping plots. Clear records of each visit, kept with the contract, help owners plan these costs over the year.
In a villa, tanks, the roof and the yard lines are usually yours to look after, so it helps to know where the main valve and tank hatches are.
