Microcement in Marrakech

A seamless, mineral, contemporary look for walls, floors, stairs and bathrooms.

COLOR HOME carries out microcement projects in Marrakech, from our Casablanca office and by appointment. Microcement gives a seamless mineral look that contemporary architecture loves.

Facades under intense sun, villas and hospitality venues: finishes designed for Marrakech.

Local context in Marrakech

Marrakech’s hot, very sunny climate with large temperature swings requires suitable facade paints and scheduling that avoids the hottest hours.

Hotels and restaurants need work scheduled outside peak periods.

Services offered

Microcement (béton ciré) is a decorative coating a few millimetres thick, made from cement, resins and pigments, trowelled in several coats and then sealed. It creates a continuous polished-concrete look without joints.

  • Living-room walls and columns
  • Staircases and landings
  • Floors in living areas (on a suitable base)
  • Bathrooms and walk-in showers with suitable sealing
  • Counters, worktops and built-in furniture

Frequently asked questions

Do you provide microcement in Marrakech?

Yes. We work in Marrakech by appointment, after a discussion or technical visit. The quote details preparation, products and schedule.

Do you paint facades in full sun?

Yes, with suitable products and avoiding the hottest hours, which impair drying.

Microcement or epoxy resin for a floor?

Microcement favours a mineral aesthetic; epoxy resin gives a more closed surface that is easier to maintain in high-traffic areas. See our comparison on the blog.

Can microcement be applied over tiles?

Yes, if the tiles are well bonded and joints are treated, with a suitable bonding primer.
