Medina: we carry out earthen (pisé) terrace waterproofing with waterproofing systems proven under the Marrakech climate — extreme summer heat, concentrated rain from November to March. You pay only after reading the quote: free, written and without obligation.
Rainy season Nov–Mar: The Marrakech rainy season runs from November to March: that is when every tired terrace reveals itself. An ignored leak costs up to 10 times the price of waterproofing — damaged beams, lifted tadelakt, mould, repainting — and cuts the value of the property. The right time to waterproof is before the first heavy rain, not after it.
Earthen (pisé) terrace waterproofing in Medina: the job
Earthen (pisé) terrace waterproofing in Medina starts with the substrate diagnosis: condition of the old membrane, falls, drains, upturns. Only then comes the application of a system suited to the Marrakech climate. Earth moves and drinks water: we lay a separation layer then a flexible membrane that follows the movement without peeling, upturns included. The indicative cost is 250–420 DH/m²; after the free survey you receive the firm price in writing, valid and locked.

The Medina context
The Marrakech Medina is our home ground: hundreds of riads with centuries-old flat roofs built from earth, cedarwood and lime, where traditional waterproofing — rammed earth layers and tadelakt — is reaching the end of its life. Every job here must respect ADER rules and the UNESCO listing: no hauling tonnes of rubble through narrow derbs, no altering the roofline of the terraces. We use light materials compatible with pisé: flexible resins, flame-free self-adhesive membranes, parapet upturns rebuilt to standard. Leaks in the Medina are unforgiving: they rot the wooden beams, swell the earthen walls and lift the tadelakt off bedroom walls.
We work in Medina every week: we know the local building types and we already know where to look for earthen (pisé) terrace waterproofing — door thresholds, parapets, roof drains.
Frequently asked questions: Earthen (pisé) terrace waterproofing in Medina
With a properly applied system and upturns at the right height, 15 to 20 years. What kills roofs here is fast application: a single coat, low upturns, clogged drains. We warrant our works in writing, up to 10 years.
Not necessarily: if the substrate is sound, we apply the new system over it after preparation (specific primer). If it sounds hollow or moves, it has to be rebuilt: we show you both cases with two prices, and you decide.
Yes: earthen and timber substrates, pedestrian alley access, ADER/UNESCO constraints. We use light, flame-free systems and hand-carry materials, and we know the rules for preserving the roofline.
Before handover, we flood or hose the terrace and check the flow to every drain and the absence of leaks below. You receive the photos and the written warranty.
