One of the best experiences through building my home located in Al-Dhahran city neighborhood was the cooperation with the architect and engineer Mr. Jaafar Ali Buhulaika, where he transferred our requirements for a family house into a workable plan and incorporated our necessities and desires smoothly in the plan. It was a distinguished and pleasant technical experience that we had to deal with engineer Jaafar and his team. They were easy to deal with and they were always listening to our requirements and translating them into a practical solution. As a result, everyone in the family was satisfied even after many years of use and for years to come. He did confirm that the engineers and the team working with him were at the top of their work in terms of the implementation of our comments. Moreover, he provided constructive explanations when necessary to meet our objective and to incorporate our requirements in order to come out with the best solutions as per the standards. After completing the house plan we requested engineer Jaafar support to review the contact terms and conditions with the contractor to ensure a smooth and the best execution. Engineer Jaafar and his team worked closely with the contractor to fully oversee the execution of the work. His proactivity, commitment, perfect review of the house plan, and the contract details resulted in a perfect execution. Mr. Jaafar and his team supervision and proactive vision and approach to such project helped in the following:

Smooth and timely implementation of the building execution plan.
Eliminated the need for unplanned expenditures due to execution mistakes.
Ensured the use of building materials and components as per the contract especially items inside walls, such as, the electrical and water materials.
Help the contractors to avoid costly mistakes that could delay the execution job buy laying out a detailed work plan in addition to his timely follow. Mr. Jaafar was always at the top of this job and emphasized on applying the contraction standards.
Direct supervision of Mr. Hafar had a direct impact on my follow-up, as my visit to the site was at its minimum only to view progress of the project.
Up to this day, after many years, we did not need to do major maintenance or repairs of any degree to the house

"Tatmeem exemplifies excellent project management and professionalism. I strongly recommend their services. "Their expertise in project and engineering management, particularly in Architectural Engineering, adds significant value to any organization. I highly recommend Tatmeem's services. "Engineer Jaafar was very honest in reviewing the engineering and architectural plans and gave his opinion with utmost professionalism and impartiality. Engineer Jaafar possesses extensive and distinguished scientific and practical experience in the architectural and engineering field. What sets Engineer Jaafar apart is his unconventional perspective in reviewing plans. His reviews are comprehensive, covering not only the architectural aspect but also all other engineering and structural aspects. Engineer Jaafar's observations were very constructive and rich, adding a crucial touch to avoid construction problems and technical errors, save costs, and add practical touches to make the most of the spaces."

Project Engineer Aramco

“I write this letter as a token of thanks and gratitude for your efforts as a consulting engineer in reviewing the technical and structural aspects of my home design. We contacted Engineer Jaafar during the initial stages of the project to review the plans. He welcomed the review and consultation to provide any observations that would improve the design quality and avoid construction issues. During his review of the plans, structural errors in the ceiling reinforcement were discovered. This helped us avoid a structural issue that could have affected the strength of the connection between the columns and the beams. Additionally, his assistance in recalculating the loads and reinforcement methods positively impacted the amount of reinforcement steel required. Thanks to his detailed review, we avoided delays in time, effort, and money that would have been spent correcting errors during and after execution. In conclusion, we ask God Almighty to grant him success and prosperity for his excellent conduct and professionalism as a consulting engineer.”

Safety Engineer at Aramco Saudi Arabia

“Due to my specialization as a safety engineer and during the execution, I deemed it necessary to request a technical consultation and review of the plan with Engineer Jaafar to ensure the safety of the building. I was fortunate to contact the engineer at the right time. Praise be to Allah, the precise engineering review of the plans revealed many construction errors that, if executed without review, would have led to unfavorable results and potentially threatened the building's safety. However, thank God, these errors were avoided, which positively impacted the quality and safety of the construction. The review revealed poor distribution of the building’s structural columns, which was corrected during execution with ideal engineering solutions. Addressing the construction errors during the execution phase made it easier for me to fix them at minimal costs, thank God. Discovering such errors after execution could cost the owner significantly to rectify them. Thank God, the precise review by the engineer and the implementation of his valuable engineering recommendations at the right time ensured the safety of the building and saved me additional costs. From my experience, I advise anyone about to start a construction phase to contact certified engineering consulting offices to review the building plans before execution to avoid any issues.”

“As a homeowner, I needed to consult with an engineering advisor to design my home due to my lack of experience in this field. Some engineering offices might not be able to explain the plans clearly and in detail to the client. Therefore, I sought engineering consultation from someone with both office and field experience in architectural engineering to assist me in distributing the home facilities satisfactorily in terms of space and usability, focusing on the basic needs that the family can benefit from. Certainly, consulting an engineering specialist will help reduce costs by reviewing the structural plan, following up during the execution phase, and connecting the contractor with the supervising office at all steps to avoid any wastage of materials and review quantities and control costs. Additionally, one of the benefits of engineering consultation is creating open spaces in limited areas to give a sense of spaciousness and openness. The consultant offers advice through discussion; for instance, suggesting a single guest room instead of separate rooms for men and women, or questioning whether a basement is necessary, or if an elevator is essential. All these questions and more can be answered by the engineering consultant. Therefore, it is highly recommended to consult an engineering advisor to achieve the best result for a beautiful and comfortable home.”

We have worked with great people.
