Render (crépi) is the exterior finish coat protecting walls and providing aesthetics. In Morocco: traditional 3-coat cement-lime, ready-mix monolayer (Weber, Sika), and decorative finishes (troweled, scraped, crushed).
Render (crépi) prices in Morocco (May 2026) range from 45 to 280 DH/m² depending on type, quality and region. This range covers 7 documented product variants. Prices updated monthly from verified suppliers.
Traditional 3-coat: cheap, breathable, 30-50yr durable, slow (10-15 days/coat). Monolayer: ready-mix, 2-4× faster, consistent, many colors, +30-60% cost. Large surface/tight deadline: monolayer. Heritage: traditional mandatory.
Traditional: 3 coats (5mm scratch + 15-20mm body + 5-10mm finish). Monolayer: 1 coat 12-15mm applied in 2 passes (wet on wet) then scraped/troweled. Total: 25-35mm traditional, 12-15mm monolayer.
Coastal climate (Tanger, Casa, Agadir): water-repellent + salt-resistant render. Choose Weber/Sika 'marine' range. Avoid pure lime (salt-accelerated carbonation). Smooth or troweled finish. Apply in 5+ days dry weather.
Traditional 200m²: 15-26k MAD. Troweled monolayer: 28-44k. Decorative scraped: 36-56k. Add scaffolding if >3m height: +800-1,500 MAD/day. Total work: 8-15 days.
Clean every 3-5 years with low-pressure washer + mild soap. Re-caulk cracks every 5-10 years. Repaint façade every 10-15 years (siloxane paint ideal for Moroccan climate). Avoid bleach and metal brushes.
