Short answers for Riyadh
What is the best thermal insulation material for a humid climate in the Eastern Province?
In humid areas, it is preferable to choose materials with low water absorption, such as extruded polystyrene or polyurethane foam, because they retain their efficiency in the presence of moisture. However, the final choice depends on the type of surface, the budget, and the contractor's recommendation after inspection.
What is the drying time for the floor before use?
The drying time varies depending on the system type, layer thickness, and site temperature. The installer will specify it within the scope of work.
Does detecting bathroom leaks require breaking tiles?
Usually not. Modern tools such as thermal cameras, electronic listening devices, and pressure testing pinpoint the source of a leak with high accuracy. If breaking is necessary, it is limited to the repair point only, after the location has been confirmed.
