Asphalt Paving in Chetumal: hot-mix paving, overlays and driveways
Hot-mix asphalt in Chetumal only lasts when the mix arrives hot, the base is sound and the thickness is what the contract says. Chetumal has its own suppliers of hot mix, concrete and aggregates, so prices are among the lowest in the state, though our crews travel about four hours from Playa del Carmen.
Our Asphalt Services
Heavy-Duty Areas
Truck yards, bus terminals and service areas with thicker layers and stronger bases.
New Asphalt Pavements
Base, prime coat and hot mix laid with a paver and compacted with steel and pneumatic rollers.
Mixes for Heat
Polymer-modified binders and stone-rich mixes that resist rutting at high temperatures.
When to pave in Chetumal
Normal city traffic allows daytime work with traffic control; the rainy and hurricane season from June to November is the main constraint for earthworks. Laying is scheduled with the plant and around these windows, so the mix is compacted at the right temperature.
Preparing the base in Chetumal
Chetumal sits on limestone with clay and low-lying areas near the bay, where the water table is high and bases must be thicker and better drained. We check and correct the base for these conditions before any asphalt is laid.
Rain and drainage in Chetumal
The city floods in heavy storms in low areas near the bay; storm design combines pipes, open channels and infiltration where the soil allows it.
What gets built in Chetumal
Chetumal, the state capital, needs street paving and resurfacing in colonias, car parks for government buildings, commerce and clinics, and yards for logistics linked to the border and the free zone.
