Al Mlqa is mainly villas.
Al Mlqa sits in northern Riyadh, with its centre at 24.8010, 46.6007, roughly 12.3 km from the city centre and spanning an approximate radius of 4.4 km. The area is mainly villas, so the work we do here is almost always about single homes rather than apartment blocks. That changes how a restoration is planned: a crew is usually dealing with a whole external envelope, boundary walls, and roof areas that belong to one owner, which means scope and access can be agreed directly with the household.
The district's elevation is about 666 m above sea level, and the nearest wadi channel lies about 2.7 km from the centre. Higher ground and proximity to a wadi shape how water behaves on a property. Rainwater can run off roofs and courtyards quickly, so our surveys pay close attention to drainage paths, parapet edges, and where runoff collects against walls. Sealing and repairs are planned with those flows in mind, rather than treating every roof and wall as if it sits on flat ground.
For owners, the practical picture follows from those facts. A maintenance visit typically falls within SAR 160–420 per visit, which suits regular checks of roofs, drains and external finishes. Full restoration is priced at SAR 55–160 per m², so the size of the villa and the condition of its surfaces will drive the final figure. Owners in Al Mlqa tend to avoid a few common mistakes: waiting for a visible leak before inspecting, patching a single crack without checking the drainage that caused it, and choosing a finish without considering how it will handle wind-driven dust and sun. Booking a visit early, before small defects grow, is usually the simplest way to keep costs predictable.
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.
