Tank leak detection in Jahra (Old)
Tank leak detection in Jahra Old deals with very old historical tanks built decades ago. Many are constructed of coral stone and primitive cement that have leaked for years without repair. We carefully inspect all stone cracks and weak joints and locate any water seepage points.

What sets this area apart
The old Jahra district near the Red Fort has very ancient houses with water tanks built into ground-floor foundations or rear courtyards. These old tanks are made of Jahra sand, stone and weak cement, with fine cracks spreading due to ground movement and heat. We measure the tank externally and tap walls to hear void and crack sounds, then fill very slowly to see where water first starts seeping.
Old Jahra sits in Jahra governorate near the historic Al Jahra Fort, a heritage area with water tanks over fifty years old.
When inspecting an old tank, we look for white salt deposits on stone, which signal long-term seepage from brackish water.

Can a leak in a coral stone tank be stopped without removing the tank?
In some cases yes, if the leak is very small from surface cracks. We seal cracks from inside with special sealant. But if cracks are deep or multiple, re-lining or tank replacement may be the better option.
What causes old tanks in Jahra to develop cracks?
Intense desert heat causes stone and cement to expand and contract, and sandy soil movement pressures the walls. Salt in groundwater slowly erodes cement, and tanks neglected for decades accumulate cracks and weakened areas.
