Docks & Piers in Puerto Aventuras: fixed and floating docks, piers and boat lifts

We build docks, piers and boat lifts in Puerto Aventuras: bathymetry, ZOFEMAT and environmental permits, piles, hardwood or composite decking and a lift sized to your boat. Puerto Aventuras is a gated marina community: canal-front homes with private docks, golf-side villas and condos, where boat lifts, seawalls and private spas are everyday requests.

What We Build

Floating Pontoons

Federal Permits

ZOFEMAT or CONAGUA concession, environmental impact statement and municipal licence.

Docks for the waterfront in Puerto Aventuras

Licences come from Solidaridad, but the community administration controls access, work hours, crew registration and design changes, and approvals must be requested before work starts. Pile type, deck height and length follow the bathymetry and the federal concession, never a standard drawing.

Permits, seabed and the water in Puerto Aventuras

Marina-front and beachfront units get salt and humidity all year, which is why rusted railings, peeling paint and tired bathrooms are the most common jobs here. Hardware is marine-grade stainless or hot-dip galvanised, and decks are chosen for water, sun and bare feet. Canal docks follow the marina's own rules on length, materials and boat-lift type, which we submit together with the federal permits.

Materials, crews and access in Puerto Aventuras

Puerto Aventuras is about 25 minutes from our workshops, so materials and crews arrive daily and urgent repairs can be handled the same day.

Water and utilities in Puerto Aventuras

Water comes through the community network with good coverage, though hardness still calls for softeners and filters in bathrooms and for drip irrigation in gardens.

Yes. Water and the shore are federal: you need a ZOFEMAT concession on the sea or a CONAGUA concession on lagoons, usually an environmental impact statement and the municipal licence. Building without them risks demolition orders and fines.
