Our Inspection & Testing Services
Firestop Inspection in Saudi Arabia
Our certified firestop inspection service assesses all penetration seals at cable trays, pipe runs, and wall openings to verify they will contain fire and smoke. We follow NFPA 101, UL listing requirements, and Saudi Civil Defense standards, issuing detailed inspection reports accepted by local authorities.
- Cable, conduit, and pipe penetrations
- Fire-rated wall and floor assemblies
- Expansion joints and construction gaps
- Compliance against NFPA 101 & Civil Defense codes
Fireproofing Inspection
We verify that fireproofing materials — including intumescent coatings and sprayed mineral fiber — are correctly applied to structural steel, beams, and columns. Our inspection confirms adequate thickness, adhesion, and condition to guarantee structural integrity during fire exposure, meeting SASO and ASTM E119 standards.
- Dry film thickness measurement per design specification
- Adhesion and delamination assessment
- Intumescent and cementitious coating inspection
- Non-destructive testing with certified instruments
Paint Thickness & Coating Inspection
Coating failures cause billions in annual corrosion damage across the Gulf region. Our paint thickness inspection service uses calibrated, NACE-certified dry film thickness gauges to verify that protective coatings meet project specifications — safeguarding pipelines, tanks, and structures against the harsh Saudi climate.
- Dry film thickness (DFT) measurement per SSPC-PA 2
- Holiday (pinhole) and porosity testing
- Surface preparation grade verification
- Coating system compliance with project specs
Water Leakage Inspection
Hidden water leaks cause structural damage, mold growth, and costly emergency repairs. Our advanced water leakage inspection uses acoustic detection, thermal imaging, and tracer dye techniques to pinpoint leaks in buildings, underground pipelines, and infrastructure without destructive opening of walls or floors.
- Acoustic and thermal leak localization
- Waterproofing membrane assessment
- Roof, façade, and basement penetration testing
- Written report with location maps and repair priorities
FM200 Room Integrity Testing in Saudi Arabia
FM200 (HFC-227ea) suppression systems depend on the protected enclosure retaining enough gas concentration to extinguish fire. Our door fan test — conducted per NFPA 2001 and ISO 14520 — measures air leakage and calculates the predicted hold time, confirming the room will maintain design concentration throughout the fire event.
- Door fan pressurization / depressurization test
- Leakage rate calculation & hold time prediction
- Results compared against NFPA 2001 & ISO 14520 thresholds
- Seal and gap remediation consultation if hold time fails
Air Tightness Testing
Evaluate building enclosure tightness to identify air leakage points. Our testing improves energy efficiency, safety, and environmental control within facilities.
Air Leakage Testing
Uncontrolled air leakage within a building structure — through partitions, ceiling voids, and mechanical shafts — undermines HVAC performance and indoor air quality. Our component-level air leakage testing isolates problem areas and provides actionable data to restore system balance and occupant comfort.
- Component-level leakage testing (doors, windows, facades)
- Measurement per ASTM E283 / E330 standards
- Smoke pencil and tracer gas leak localization
- HVAC balancing recommendations based on results
Duct Leakage Testing
Leaky ductwork wastes 20–30% of conditioned air before it reaches occupied spaces — a critical loss in Saudi Arabia’s climate. Our duct leakage testing measures total and component leakage using pressurization equipment, diagnoses problem sections, and produces reports required for commissioning and ASHRAE 90.1 compliance.
- Total duct leakage (Leakage to outside) measurement
- Test per ASHRAE 90.1 and SMACNA standards
- Duct pressurization with calibrated fan and gauges
- Section-by-section fault isolation where needed
Smoke Testing
Smoke testing is a rapid, visual method for confirming the integrity of air distribution systems, identifying containment breaches, and verifying that pressurized smoke-control systems will perform as designed. We use non-toxic, UL-listed smoke cartridges and professional injection equipment for precise, safe results.
- Ductwork and plenum containment verification
- Smoke control and pressurization system performance
- Air barrier continuity testing in clean rooms and labs
- Stairwell and lobby pressurization confirmation
Thermography & Infrared Inspection
Our Level II certified thermographers use professional-grade FLIR infrared cameras to detect overheating electrical connections, insulation voids, moisture infiltration, and HVAC inefficiencies that are invisible to the naked eye. Thermography is the most cost-effective predictive maintenance tool available for Saudi Arabian facilities.
- Electrical panel, switchgear, and motor inspection
- Building envelope thermal anomaly detection
- Roof membrane moisture survey
- FLIR radiometric images with full temperature data in report
