Bird control in Makkah: with a verifiable technical report
In short: Bird control (with a verifiable technical report) in Makkah starts with the inspection and diagnosis, then the sealing and exclusion (mesh, spikes, gap filling), before anything is opened. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data). Published price: Bird control, SAR 30–85 per m; anything else is quoted after the inspection.
Why bird control differs in Makkah
Team note on Makkah: 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.. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).
Picture a typical building owner in Makkah, responsible for a mid-rise block or a family house whose roof edges, balconies and rooftop water tanks have started attracting pigeons. The droppings build up on ledges and air-conditioning units, the noise disturbs tenants, and the owner wants the problem solved without repeated trial and error. Many owners in this situation first try a quick fix, then find the birds return within weeks.
The local facts matter here. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), so the site is not a high mountain setting but a built-up urban environment where ledges, parapets and open rooftops provide plenty of roosting space. Bird control is usually priced per metre of protected edge, typically SAR 30–85 per m, so measuring the affected length before any quote is the most useful first step. For ongoing protection, an annual pest-control contract of SAR 525–1,575 per month spreads the cost, while a follow-up visit of SAR 105–265 per visit allows the work to be checked after installation.
A practical sequence works best. First, survey the property and record every ledge, gap and nesting spot, noting the length of each in metres. Second, seal openings and fit deterrent measures along those edges, then request an itemised quote based on the measured lengths. Third, schedule a follow-up visit to confirm the birds have stopped using the site. Fourth, if the problem recurs, consider an annual contract so inspections and adjustments are covered. Keep a written log of each visit and its findings, since a clear record makes it easier to judge whether the treatment is working and to compare quotes from providers.
Each job ends with a written report that carries a verification code you can check on our site.

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.
