Does a bird problem on an office roof or commercial complex in Makkah need a one-off fix, or an ongoing plan? The answer depends on the building, but the local setting matters. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level, and our bird control work here is priced by the metre, at SAR 30–85 per m, so the scope of the job is easy to size once the affected length is known. Property owners who want to keep the cost predictable can also choose an annual pest-control contract at SAR 525–1,575 per month, with follow-up visits at SAR 105–265 per visit to check that the measures are holding.
The visit begins with a walk of the whole site, looking at roof edges, parapets, ledges, vents, signage, and any gaps where birds roost or nest. The technician notes where droppings, nests, and feeding spots are concentrated, and measures the affected runs so the quote reflects the actual length of the problem. Where the same site has other pest activity, the inspection also records it, since rodent control is charged at SAR 210–525 per visit and a general pest-control visit at SAR 160–420 per visit. Termite treatment, if signs are seen, is priced separately at SAR 10–25 per m². The findings are then explained on site, with the options and costs set out before any work starts, so the owner can decide on a single treatment or a regular schedule.
To make the visit useful, prepare a rough sketch or list of the buildings and roof areas that have bird problems, and note which floors or entrances are most affected. Let the team know whether the complex has tenants with specific concerns, such as food outlets or car parks, and whether any work areas need to be cleared. Gather any earlier service records or invoices so the technician can see what has already been done. Confirm access to the roof and to any locked plant rooms, and name a contact who can approve work on the day. With this information ready, the visit can focus on finding the cause and agreeing a clear plan.
For offices and commercial complexes, work is scheduled to avoid disrupting staff and visitors.

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.
