A maintenance visit in Alysha is priced at SAR 160–420 per visit, and the inspection follows a set order. The technician starts with the roof, drainage outlets and parapets, since water is the main risk after rain. Next comes the external walls and render, looking for cracks, loose plaster and staining. Then the team checks the stairwell, the shared entrances and the car park for damp, and finally the electrical distribution boards and water tanks for signs of wear. Any defect is recorded with its location, so the owner can compare the report with the next year's visit. If restoration is needed, it is quoted separately at SAR 55–160 per m², which lets owners plan the cost in stages.
Before the visit, prepare a few simple things so the inspection runs smoothly. Gather the building's plans or any previous maintenance reports, and note any leaks, cracks or damp patches you have already seen. Make sure the roof hatch, plant room and water tank area are accessible, and tell the building manager or neighbours in advance so shared areas can be opened. Clear loose items from the roof and balconies, and keep a list of questions you want answered on the day. With this preparation, the visit covers more ground and the report gives you a clear picture of the building's condition for the year ahead.
For a residential building, shared risers, tanks and pumps are checked as one system.
