Zellige terrace renovation in Medina is one of the jobs we carry out most often in the area. Materials rated for the Marrakech climate, a tidy site, deadlines kept: free survey, written quote within 24 hours, ten-year warranty on the works.
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.
Zellige terrace renovation in Medina: the job
A terrace rebuilt from scratch beats ten patch-ups: zellige terrace renovation in Medina rebuilds the whole build-up, from the membrane to the last joint. Outdoor zellige laid over new waterproofing with water-repellent joints: Marrakech’s traditional look with today’s technique underneath. The indicative spend is 380–600 DH/m²; the final figure is written after measuring on site and never moves.
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.

Frequently asked questions: Zellige terrace renovation in Medina
For a 40–80 m² terrace: 6 to 10 working days, plus screed drying time before the finish. We schedule everything in the quote, written dates included.
It all depends on the substrate: if it is sound, a no-demolition membrane is enough and costs half as much; if it sounds hollow, is cracked or badly sloped, renovating is the only durable choice. We test at the survey and show you both costings.
Only if they are perfectly bonded and flat, which is rare. In a renovation we start again from a sound substrate — but we can reuse your zellige as decoration (borders, worktops).
Yes: we regularly work under ADER rules — no change to the external appearance, materials hand-carried, rubble removal adapted to pedestrian derbs.
