Water tank waterproofing in Hittin, Riyadh

Hittin is a district of villas and palaces in north Riyadh stretching between the Northern Ring Road and King Khalid Road, with Hittin District Park, Boulevard Riyadh and Hittin Souq. Pale limestone dust from the Tuwaiq plateau and fine sand from the Banban desert settle on every surface and enter the tank, and the hard supply water leaves thick scale deposits on the tank's inside walls. Sealing protects against both sources at once.

Why a tank needs sealing, not patching

  • Water you store stays stored

    A lined tank keeps the water it holds instead of feeding a slow leak into the slab.

  • The damp stain has a cause

    The wet patch on the ceiling or wall below a tank is the symptom, and the tank is usually the cause.

  • Safe to hold drinking water

    The materials we apply are rated for potable water, so the tank is safe to drink from once it is back in use.

  • Proven before you rely on it

    We do not hand a tank back on trust.

Why the job is different in Hittin

Hittin tanks accumulate limestone scale from hard water and desert dust quickly, and cracks appear under this double pressure. The whole method is set out in our full account of water tank waterproofing.

  • Limestone dust, hard water and heavy scale deposits

    Hittin sits below the Tuwaiq plateau, which carries pale limestone dust. Westerly winds bring this dust with fine sand from the Banban desert, settling on roofs and tanks. Hard water leaves very thick scale deposits on the tank's inside walls. Sealing protects against both sources together.

  • Ongoing construction, cement dust and sand

    Beyond Al Arid and Al Qirawan plots are still being built, so cement dust and fine sand settle everywhere. The tank absorbs this dust with irrigation water and swept-down runoff. Sealing from inside protects the tank from this continuous pollution and deposits.

  • Heat and weather accelerate cracks

    Hittin faces extreme summer heat, and the tank expands while water contracts as temperatures change. This pressure causes cracks that grow fast, especially with scale and dust present. Sealing from inside stops this combined effect on tank walls.

What's Included

Hittin holds villas, palaces and gated compounds between the Northern Ring Road and King Khalid Road, with Hittin District Park, Boulevard Riyadh, Hittin Souq and a sports complex nearby.

  • Emptied and fully dried

    Hittin tanks hold thick limestone deposits and need full draining and deep cleaning before sealing starts.

  • Cracks and leak points surveyed

    Cracks in Hittin tanks come from scale, dust and heat combined, so inspection must be thorough.

  • Surface prepared before coating

    The inside surface needs specialist cleaning to remove limestone scale before the sealant is applied.

  • Waterproofing applied in coats

    Sealing coats are applied carefully to ensure full protection from the combined pressure of scale, heat and moisture.

  • Full curing time

    Curing takes its full time in Hittin, especially during intense summer heat.

  • Fill test before handover

    The fill test runs carefully to confirm complete protection against cracks and scale.

Landmarks of Hittin

Hittin stretches from Boulevard Riyadh through Hittin Souq to Hittin District Park, making villa and palace locations easy to identify. Most tanks sit in properties near these landmarks or overlooking the famous Boulevard Riyadh.

What is different about North Riyadh

North Riyadh is where the capital has grown fastest. Along the Northern Ring Road and King Salman Road, districts such as Al Malqa, Hittin, Al Yasmin, Al Narjis and Al Sahafa are largely new villas in light render, stone and glass, while the King Abdullah Financial District and the towers around Riyadh Front add curtain wall glass and marble lobbies. Beyond Al Arid and Al Qirawan the plots are still being built, so cement dust and fine sand from the open desert towards Banban settle on every surface, and the hard blended supply water leaves scale on glass and stone.

Questions before booking

Does limestone dust from the plateau actually enter my tank?

Yes. The plateau above Hittin carries limestone dust, and westerly winds bring it with sand. It settles on the roof and tank and deposits in the water. Sealing the tank protects against this dust and reduces inside deposits.

Why is limestone scale a problem for tanks?

Thick scale traps moisture on tank walls and causes cracks. Limestone reacts with water and increases pressure. Sealing protects walls from this pressure and trapped moisture.

Does hard water speed up tank cracking?

Yes. Hard water leaves thick scale that traps moisture and salts. This scale puts extra pressure on tank walls. Sealing protects against this combined effect.

Does building in nearby neighbourhoods affect my tank?

Yes. Ongoing construction in nearby plots raises cement dust and sand. This dust settles on the roof and tank. Sealing protects the tank from pollution and deposits from building work.

Does extreme heat speed up tank cracks in Hittin?

Yes. Expansion and contraction from heat stresses tank walls. With scale and dust present, cracks appear fast. Sealing protects against this combined pressure.

Does the water stay clean after sealing the tank in Hittin?

Yes. Sealing protects the tank from outside dust and scale deposits. Water stays clean and safe, protected from outside pollution.
