Lorenzo Del Bufalo is a handyman and builder in Tulum — from a leaking pipe to a full villa renovation. One person responsible, start to finish.
Message on WhatsAppTulum was built in a hurry. Half the work here is fixing that, and the other half is building something that won't need fixing.
New rooms, extensions, structural work and complete apartment or villa renovations — planned before they are started, not improvised on site.
Doors, wardrobes, furniture, mezzanines and timber structures, built to measure on site rather than bought and forced to fit.
The Yucatán is hard on water systems. Pumps, filters and pipework here have to be specified properly or they fail within a season.
Off-grid and hybrid systems including Victron installations, battery backup, and the switchgear that keeps them safe to work on.
For owners who are not in Tulum full time. Regular checks, small repairs handled before they get expensive, and photos after every visit.
Two complete saunas built in Tulum — not assembled from a kit. Foundations, drainage, reinforced concrete shell, dedicated electrical circuit, insulation, cedar lining, heater and finishes.
If you are planning a sauna, cold plunge or wellness area for a villa or a small hotel, this is the part of the work we know best.
If you look after several properties in Tulum, one reliable contact for every trade is worth more than a list of numbers that sometimes answer.

If it is not here, ask anyway — most of what we do started as somebody's unusual request.
“In Italy you learn to build so the house is still standing in fifty years. Here that is unusual — which is exactly why people call me.”
Lorenzo Del Bufalo moved to Tulum from Italy and has been working on properties across the town for years, mostly for owners who had already paid twice for the same job.
Every job is done or supervised personally, and you deal with the same person from the first message to the last day on site.
