We install floors and tile in Akumal on levelled, properly bonded bases: porcelain and large format, marble, chukum, microcement, terraces and pool decks. Akumal has beachfront condos and villas in Half Moon Bay and Akumal Bay, homes in Aventuras Akumal and new developments on the jungle side, many owned by long-term foreign residents who renovate and maintain rather than build.
From 60×60 to 120×280 slabs, back-buttered and laid with levelling clips for a flat, lippage-free floor.
Anti-slip, cool-touch stone and porcelain for outdoor areas, with falls and joints for sun and rain.
Bathrooms, kitchens and feature walls in ceramic, zellige, mosaic or stone.
Front-row homes face open sea and constant spray, while the jungle side is humid and shaded, so the right paint, metal and plant choices change from one side of the highway to the other. Formats and materials are matched to how the property is used, from family homes to high-turnover rentals.
Akumal is about 35 minutes from our workshops; access to condos in the bays is tight, so we plan deliveries and debris removal with building administrations. Adhesives, movement joints and outdoor finishes are chosen for these conditions so floors stay flat and bonded.
Many units are rented through the year, so work is phased by unit and kept inside quiet hours.
Water is hard and some areas rely on wells or cisterns, so softeners, filters and low-flow fittings are typical in every bathroom remodel.
Akumal belongs to Tulum municipality; the bay and beach are under ZOFEMAT and turtle-nesting protection, so exterior lighting, beach landscaping and work near the sand follow strict rules.
