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.
Below-ground wall waterproofing in Aït Ourir: the job
Below-ground wall waterproofing in Aït Ourir starts by measuring the wall’s actual moisture, not by repainting the stain. The outer face of buried walls treated during excavation: membrane or external tanking, footing drain, protection. The indicative cost is 200–380 DH/m²; after the free survey, the price is fixed in writing and locked.
The Aït Ourir context
Aït Ourir, about thirty kilometres from Marrakech on the Atlas road, is the satellite town of Al Haouz province: a mixed stock of traditional flat-roofed houses, small recent apartment blocks and villas on the outskirts. Flat roofs here inherit two worlds: the earthen terraces of older houses, vulnerable at the first heavy rain, and the concrete slabs of recent buildings, poorly waterproofed from the start. Winters are colder than in Marrakech and rainfall heavier near the mountains: a roof that holds in Gueliz is not necessarily enough here. We match the system to the actual substrate — earth, old or new concrete — not the other way round.

Frequently asked questions: Below-ground wall waterproofing in Aït Ourir
Rising damp starts at ground level and climbs evenly (up to 1 m and more), often with saltpetre; a leak makes localised stains linked to rain. Our moisture measurements settle it in one visit.
Yes, with an adapted protocol: earth is neither concrete nor brick. Gentle injections or drainage depending on the case, and above all breathable finishes — never waterproof cement that traps moisture and destroys the wall.
The barrier is active as soon as the treatment ends, but the wall’s drying takes about one month per 2.5 cm of thickness. We give you a realistic calendar and the finishes to wait for before repainting.
Not if the cause is treated: salt neutralisation, barrier against rising damp, breathable finish. Treating saltpetre without treating the rising damp, on the other hand, guarantees its return at the first wet season.
