Bathroom Remodel in Bacalar: waterproofed showers, new plumbing and tile
We remodel bathrooms in Bacalar from the slab up: demolition, new plumbing, full waterproofing, tile, glass and extraction, under one fixed quote. Bacalar has lagoon-front houses, boutique hotels and eco-cabins along the Laguna de los Siete Colores, plus village homes in town, with demand for bathrooms, decks, gardens and maintenance.
What a Recrea Bathroom Includes
Full Waterproofing
Cementitious or liquid membrane over the whole shower and floor, flood-tested for 24 hours before any tile goes down.
Tile & Stone
Porcelain, large-format slabs, chukum or natural stone, laid flat with levelling systems and epoxy grout in wet zones.
Walk-In Showers
Curbless showers with linear drains, tempered glass panels and niches built into the wall.
Water and fittings for a bathroom in Bacalar
Water is from the municipal system or wells, and wastewater must never reach the lagoon, which affects every bathroom and kitchen project. That is why we size softeners, filters and pumps with the bathroom, and choose fittings that tolerate scale.
Humidity, salt and finishes in Bacalar
There is no sea salt, but the lagoon keeps humidity high and the sun is strong, so wood, decks and paint need UV and moisture protection. Grout, paint, extraction and metal fittings are specified for these conditions so the bathroom still looks new after several seasons.
Rules, licences and administration in Bacalar
Licences come from Bacalar municipality, and the lagoon shore is protected, so works near the water, landscaping and wastewater must respect environmental rules.
Materials, crews and access in Bacalar
Bacalar is about three and a half hours from our workshops; we plan stays on site and buy many materials in Chetumal, which keeps costs close to the southern average.
Rentals and scheduling in Bacalar
Tourism peaks on holidays and weekends, so hotels schedule works in quieter weeks.
