Waterproofing and moisture: solutions for the Malagasy climate

Humidity in Madagascar most often gets in through poorly waterproofed terraces, walls in contact with the ground, and junctions around bathrooms. A quality waterproofing membrane, installed with proper upstands at the edges, prevents leaks that degrade paint and coatings within just a few months. For tourist buildings in Nosy Be, where appearance matters as much as the structure itself, this deserves its own dedicated budget rather than a minor line in the quote.
