How much does bird control cost in Makkah, and what do you get for it? Property owners here often ask this before anything else, and the answer depends on the size of the area and the type of work. Bird control in Makkah is priced at SAR 30–85 per m, so a larger roof ledge or balcony run will cost more than a small window opening. Where a property needs ongoing attention rather than a one-off job, an annual pest-control contract is priced at SAR 525–1,575 per month. Follow-up visits are charged separately at SAR 105–265 per visit, which helps you plan the budget for a longer programme. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level, so buildings across the city face the same general climate and the same pressures from birds and other pests.
Once you request a visit, the inspection follows a set order. The technician first walks the building exterior and roof to find where birds are roosting, nesting or leaving droppings, and notes the surfaces that are being soiled. Next, the entry points are checked, including gaps around pipes, vents, parapets and ledges, since these are usually where birds gain a foothold. The technician then recommends a treatment matched to the findings and measures the affected lengths so the quote reflects the real work. Where other pests are also present, the inspection covers them too, with rodent control at SAR 210–525 per visit, termite treatment at SAR 10–25 per m², and a general pest-control visit at SAR 160–420 per visit. Each of these is priced on its own so you can see exactly what each part of the job costs.
Before the visit, it helps to prepare a few things so the inspection is quick and the quote is accurate. Gather the building address, the approximate length of any ledges, balconies or roof edges where birds gather, and a note of when the problem started and how often it returns. Take photographs of droppings, nests or damage if you have them, and make sure the technician can reach the roof, balconies and any locked service areas. If you already have a pest-control contract, share its details so the visit can be scheduled as a follow-up rather than a new call-out. With this information ready, the technician can give you a clear estimate using the published rates above.

Questions from Makkah
What does finishing work typically include?
It covers plastering, painting, flooring, stone or marble walls, ceilings, gypsum, doors, windows, and final electrical and plumbing installations. You can request full or partial finishing, with the scope clearly defined in the price quote.
Is it possible to renovate the building without evacuating the residents?
In many cases it can be carried out in phases without a full evacuation if the damage is limited. However, for extensive structural renovation, a temporary evacuation may be recommended to ensure safety, and the contractor will explain this in their proposal.
Does waterproofing require removing existing tiles?
It depends on the site condition. Sometimes surface waterproofing can be applied over tiles, while deep leaks require tile removal to treat the layer underneath. A technician will determine the best option after inspection.
