Asphalt Repair & Maintenance in Cancún: potholes, sealing and maintenance plans

Every rainy season and hurricane leaves potholes in Cancún; we repair with hot mix and rebuilt bases, then seal and re-stripe so the same spots do not fail again. Large parts of the city flood in heavy storms because there is little storm sewer; every parking lot or street needs its own inlets and infiltration wells, and the water table near the lagoon limits how deep those wells can work.

Repair and Maintenance Services

Seal Coat & Slurry

Protective coatings that restore colour, close the surface and add years to tired asphalt.

Concrete Repairs

Broken slab replacement, joint resealing and kerb and sidewalk repair.

Structural Pothole Repair

Saw-cut, excavation of wet or broken base, recompaction, tack coat and hot mix, rolled flush.

Repairing without closing in Cancún

Traffic on main avenues forces night work for connections and resurfacing; the rainy season from June to October is the hardest time for earthworks, and the drier months from December to May are the best paving window. Repairs and sealing are scheduled in these windows, by sections, with traffic kept moving.

Materials for lasting repairs in Cancún

Cancún has the shortest haul to hot-mix plants and sascab and crushed-stone quarries in the north of the state, so asphalt arrives hot and material prices are the regional benchmark. We choose hot mix, concrete or pavers for each repair according to this supply situation.

What gets built in Cancún

Cancún generates most of the paving work in the state: industrial parks and logistics yards along the airport road and Highway 307, plaza and hotel car parks, new subdivisions in the south-west and constant resurfacing of condo streets and private roads.

Permits and authorities in Cancún

Works are licensed by Benito Juárez; connections to Kukulcán Boulevard, Bonampak or federal Highway 307 need municipal road authority or SCT approval, and new subdivisions are received by the municipality and Aguakan only with test reports and as-built drawings.
