Preventive treatment in Al Wurud Jeddah

Al Wurud is a residential district between King Fahd Road and Prince Majid Road with villas and mixed residential and commercial blocks built on the old airport site. The historic site and heavy excavation raise groundwater levels and new foundations on unsettled soil open multiple cracks. The programme reads humidity pressure and new cracks from foundations on pressurised, unsettled ground.

Why they keep coming back in Al Wurud

The old airport site and heavy excavation for new villas and blocks raise groundwater and open deep routes for rodents toward weak foundations. The method is set out in full on the full Preventive treatment page.

The first reason

Foundations on unsettled soil and rising groundwater seepage

Al Wurud stands on the old airport site and heavy excavation from two or three years back has raised groundwater. New foundations on weak damp soil settle fast and crack. Seepage from groundwater opens deep routes for insects and rodents toward homes.

The second reason

New cracks from fast settlement and water pressure

New buildings settle fast because of moisture and pressure from groundwater. New cracks appear in walls and foundations and open every year. Water seeps through the cracks and rodents follow the water and new openings.

The third reason

Proximity to Al Naseem and Bani Malik increases pressure

Neighbouring districts have the same moisture and weak foundation problems. Insects and rodents move between districts through underground gaps and shared pipes. Total pressure is higher because three districts are adjacent.

Al Wurud sits about 2 km from Al Sharafiyah and about 2 km from Bani Malik.

Before treatment

What a preventive visit reads

A residential district between King Fahd Road and Prince Majid Road neighbouring Al Naseem to the east and Bani Malik to the north, built on the old airport site and suffering from high groundwater.

The base of an exterior wall where the building meets the ground

The base of the outside wall

The outside wall base faces pressure from high groundwater. The band must run deep beneath water level and be very strong.

Gaps and openings

Gaps and openings in a new house may be wider than expected from fast settlement. Doors and windows may not seal tightly and electrical openings may be wide.

An outdoor air conditioning unit with a condensate pipe on the wall

Air conditioning condensate

Air conditioning drainage adds extra moisture around the foundations. Water may pool on the foundation surface from water pressure.

Floor drains

Floor drains may be broken from fast settlement. Water pools beneath the floor and opens wide routes for insects and rodents.

Irrigation against the wall

Irrigation against the wall is very dangerous here. Extra water from irrigation increases water pressure around weak foundations.

The monitoring points

We place monitoring points at the east and north wall bases where moisture accumulates most, and at new cracks and underground gaps at every visit.

How we work

1
The baseline survey

We walk the outside boundary and then the inside: gaps under doors, pipe runs, vents, condensate lines, drains, the bin area and the store, and we fix the monitoring points before anything is applied.
2
Close the routes

Mesh on the vents, the gap under the door dealt with, the sleeve around a pipe run closed, and water put back into the drain nobody uses. Exclusion saves a spray that would otherwise repeat forever.
3
The band and the placed product

A residual band at the base of the wall outside and around door and window openings, with placed product inside joints and closed voids where it is warranted, and no open spray across living surfaces.
4
The scheduled visit: read, renew, record

We read the points to see which side is under pressure, renew the band where sun or irrigation has taken it, aim the visit at what the coming season opens up, and write down what was found and what was used.

What the preventive programme includes

A survey, then a check every visit

Entry points, moisture sources and storage, recorded before anything is applied and revisited each time.
Monitoring points that get read

At the wall and floor junction, under sinks and in the store, checked on every visit rather than only the last one.
A renewed exterior band

At the wall base and around the openings, put back wherever sun or irrigation took it between visits.
Drains, water lines and waste

The water seal in the drains, the condensate line and the ground around the bins, which are the standing water and food sources.
Between the visits

What to keep dry, what to keep closed, and what is worth a call before the next date. Ventilation we tell you before the visit.
A scheduled visit and a record of each

An agreed date, what the points held, what was treated, and what changed since last time.

The character of Al Wurud

Mixed district: shops at street level with homes above them

In an emerging district on an old site, a new home faces high pressure from moisture, excavation and fast foundation settlement. The programme monitors new cracks at every visit and water pressure from high groundwater.

Questions about this district

The house is new and the foundation cracked after one year. Is that normal?

Yes, new foundations on damp soil settle fast. Preventive treatment monitors new cracks at every visit and seals them before they become insect routes.

Groundwater rises fast every year. Does that affect the programme?

Yes, rising groundwater causes constant seepage. We raise monitoring points at water level and seal cracks with water resistant silicone under pressure.

Excavation around my house is still going on. How often does preventive treatment visit?

Ongoing excavation raises pressure greatly. Visits are much closer until excavation and building complete around the district and water level settles.

The villa next to me is old with a good foundation. Why is mine higher pressure?

The old villa is built on soil that settled years ago. Your new villa is on soil still settling and excavation around the district raises pressure. Pressure will fall when soil settles.

My house is higher than the street. Does that reduce pressure from underground gaps?

Yes, slightly, but groundwater rises and cracks offer routes for rodents and insects. Elevation helps but does not stop pressure alone.

My neighbours said they have mice beneath the floor since last year. Does that mean I will too?

Mice in the district exist and move easily. Preventive treatment reduces mouse entry into your home but if neighbours do nothing pressure will spread. Start now before they enter.

How much does preventive treatment in Al Wurud cost?

It is set after the inspection, because the price follows the type of infestation, the size of the space, how far it has spread and the number of visits it needs. Send a photo and a description on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Wurud.
