Before we start: what we know about Khobar
Team note on Khobar: Kashf teams serve this city and its nearby districts with the same documented inspection standard: device-based leak detection without demolition, a written report, and a clear scope before any work begins.. Khobar is about 1.8 km from the sea coast (OpenStreetMap).
The centre of Khobar sits about 9 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).
Flea and tick problems in Khobar usually start with pets and then spread through the home. Adult fleas hop onto dogs and cats outdoors, lay eggs in bedding, carpets and cracks in floors, and the eggs hatch into larvae that hide away from light and light vacuuming. Ticks are less common indoors but can come in on pets returning from gardens or the desert edge, so a home can look clean and still have a live population developing out of sight. Residents often treat only the animal and find the problem returns within weeks.
Khobar's position shapes how we approach these infestations. The centre of Khobar sits about 9 m above sea level, and the city is about 1.8 km from the sea coast. That means humid air drifting in from the Gulf can keep floors, carpets and soft furnishings damp in some seasons, which suits flea eggs and larvae to develop. Our treatment therefore covers the places where immature stages settle, not only the pet and the visible floor. We pay attention to shaded corners, under furniture, pet sleeping areas and the edges of rooms where air moves slowly, and we set out a schedule that matches the life cycle so later stages are caught before they mature.
Before the visit, ask the provider to explain which stages of the flea life cycle the treatment targets and whether the plan includes a follow-up. A follow-up visit typically costs SAR 100–250 per visit, and a single pest-control visit runs SAR 150–400, so ask for the full price in writing before booking. Ask whether a technical report will be supplied after treatment, what it records and how you can check it. Confirm which products will be used, whether pets and children need to leave the rooms, and how long you should keep them out. A clear answer to each of these questions is a good sign that the job will be done properly.
Each job ends with a written report that carries a verification code you can check on our site.

Short answers for Khobar
Can the roof be insulated over the existing insulation layer?
This depends on the condition of the old layer. If it is intact and stable, a new layer may be applied. If it is damaged, it must be removed. A technician will determine this after inspection.
What is the best type of roof waterproofing for Khobar's climate?
The choice depends on the surface and its use. Bituminous rolls and liquid polyurethane coatings are common for exposed roofs to resist heat and humidity, while cementitious materials suit tanks and bathrooms. The contractor determines the best type after inspection.
