Route de l’Ourika: we carry out drying-out after a leak 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.

The Route de l’Ourika context
The Ourika road has become the axis of new villas and small residential compounds with pools: a new building comes out of the ground there every week. On this axis we see two families of requests: villas at finishing stage whose owner wants the waterproofing secured before handover — checking the falls, the upturns, a flood test — and already-delivered terraces that leak after their first winter. Terraces here often double as a solarium with Atlas views: they must be both watertight and walkable, hence the success of traffic-grade resins and membranes under tiling. Dust from neighbouring sites also clogs the drains: drainage checks are part of our standard inspection.
In Route de l’Ourika, as everywhere in Marrakech, waterproofing is the poor relation of recent construction: drying-out after a leak is the safest way to put the roof right before a small leak becomes a major damage.
Frequently asked questions: Drying-out after a leak in Route de l’Ourika
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.
It is the most profitable visit of your purchase: for a few hundred dirhams you know what the walls hide, with a written report that gives you real negotiating leverage — or saves you from a very bad surprise.
