We demolish selectively in Costa Mujeres: interior strip-outs, concrete cutting and total demolitions, with structural review first and legal debris disposal. Building permits come from Isla Mujeres municipality on the continental side, and almost every development has an HOA with design rules, approved work hours and a requirement to register crews and vehicles at the gate.
Diamond saw cuts and core drilling for new doors, windows, stairs and services.
Separation of metal, wood and reusable items; crushed concrete reused as fill where allowed.
Demolition licence, structural review, shoring and neighbour protection.
The zone is about 90 minutes from our workshops and 30 minutes from Cancún suppliers; we group deliveries and keep crews on site for full days so travel does not eat into the job. We process these approvals before any hammer starts, so neighbours and administrations have no reason to stop the job.
Costa Mujeres is mostly new: beachfront condos, all-inclusive resorts and gated villa projects north of Cancún, where owners usually want to upgrade developer finishes, add outdoor living and set up a maintenance plan before the first rental season. Trucks, loading and disposal sites are planned around this access, and debris leaves the site daily.
Most units are rented short-term, so we schedule work between bookings, protect common areas and finish noisy tasks before guests check in.
Water comes through the Cancún network with frequent low pressure in new phases, so most homes rely on cisterns, pressure pumps and filters, and gardens need drip irrigation planned around stored water.
Exposure here is direct: open sea, trade winds and spray reach the front rows of every building, so metal, paint and outdoor finishes corrode faster than in Cancún city and need marine-grade specifications.
