About Femés
Femés is a charming mountain village perched at 350 metres altitude in the Ajaches massif, offering spectacular views across to Fuerteventura and the southern coastline. This traditional settlement of whitewashed houses dates back to the 15th century and was once an important stopping point on the route between the coast and the interior. Today, Femés attracts visitors to its acclaimed restaurants and those seeking the authentic rural Lanzarote experience. The village maintains a small permanent population of farmers and artisans, with many properties now restored as holiday retreats or second homes for European buyers seeking mountain tranquillity.

Local Challenges
Femés properties present rural challenges: long water supply pipes from the mains creating pressure issues; traditional stone aljibes (cisterns) with hairline cracks; limited access roads for service vehicles; and properties often empty for extended periods allowing small leaks to cause significant damage. The mountain microclimate brings more moisture than coastal areas, making dampness diagnosis more complex.
Common Water Issues in Femés
Long Supply Pipe Runs
Rural properties have water supply pipes running hundreds of metres from the mains, with multiple potential leak points invisible underground.
Stone Aljibe Seepage
Traditional stone cisterns develop hairline cracks over decades. Water loss is gradual but cumulative, often only noticed through empty tanks or high bills.
Mountain Microclimate Moisture
Femés receives more rainfall and mist than coastal areas. Distinguishing rising damp from water leaks requires expert diagnosis.
Seasonal Property Issues
Properties empty for months can develop leaks from temperature cycling and pipe stress. Returning owners often discover extensive hidden damage.
