Tadelakt Courses - 5 Day Tadelakt

Tadelakt is not only a natural & ecological product but more and more a luxury & decorative wall finish.
Tadelakt is not a precise, standardised finish. Tinted with natural pigments it is possible to mix and match any color combination.
Tadelakt is permeable to air but impermeable to water, thus letting walls breathe.
The final surface is sealed with an olive oil based soap, which reacts with the lime plaster forming a waterproof surface.

Tadelakt is a Lime plaster, fashioned from lime specific to the Marrakech region of Morocco. Literally translated Tadelakt means 'to caress'.
Tadelakt is the perfect alternative to tiles in bathrooms. It is seamlessly applied, resulting in a surface without grout lines. It is suitable for pools, spas, shower cubicles, and Wet rooms.
For added lustre a coat of wax can be applied.

What is Tadelakt?

Tadelakt is a traditional Moroccan plastering technique that has been used for centuries to waterproof and decorate walls, ceilings, and other surfaces. It is made from a mixture of lime plaster and marble dust, which is then polished with a stone to create a smooth, shiny finish. Tadelakt is known for its durability and water resistance, making it popular for use in bathrooms, kitchens, and other wet areas. It is also valued for its natural and organic appearance, as well as its ability to create a seamless and continuous surface without the need for grout lines.

Is Tadelakt Waterproof?

The most common misconception surrounding Tadelakt is that it is waterproof- This is incorrect, it is in fact Hydrophobic which is caused by the use of diluted Olive soap during the polishing process when it penetrates deep into the tadelakt and forms a layer of fat. This process is repeated upto 6 times in a wet area and whenever the surface is cleaned the same soap should be used.. By using wax as a water barrier the carbonation (hardening) process is seriously disrupted. Full carbonation occurs approximately within 150 days depending on temperature. Usually applied to a waterproof background, traditionally to Sand and Cement. A suitable keycoat is then applied, this is then misted to reduce suction and limit the likelihood of delamination..

By allowing a slight absorption of water any micro cracking becomes self healing and water will react with limeand allow the formation of new lime crystals.
