Earthworks & Site Prep in Felipe Carrillo Puerto: clearing, rock excavation and compacted fills
Every project in Felipe Carrillo Puerto starts with the platform: clearing, rock, fills and levels done right decide whether floors crack, pools leak and roads sink. Inland, away from the coast, the ground is firm limestone with red soils in places, generally good for road bases, but rock outcrops and occasional sinkholes still need attention.
What We Do
Clearing & Stripping
Removal of jungle and organic soil, preserving trees marked for protection and chipping vegetation on site.
Compacted Fills & Platforms
Sascab and crushed stone in controlled layers, compacted and lab-tested, for buildings and roads.
Levels & Drainage
Grading so rain moves away from buildings, toward planned infiltration points.
Clearing permits in Felipe Carrillo Puerto
The municipality of Felipe Carrillo Puerto issues licences, while many rural roads cross ejido land and require agreements with the ejido assembly; state and federal programmes often co-fund rural paving. We confirm these authorisations before any machine enters the site.
Levels and runoff in Felipe Carrillo Puerto
Heavy seasonal rain on flat land floods low-lying streets and rural roads; side drains, culverts and raised road levels matter more than infiltration wells here. Platforms are graded so that rain moves away from buildings toward planned infiltration points.
What gets built in Felipe Carrillo Puerto
Felipe Carrillo Puerto needs rural roads, streets in growing colonias, car parks and yards for commerce and agro-industry, and access roads to ejido and Tren Maya-related projects in the region.
Plants, materials and access in Felipe Carrillo Puerto
About two hours from our yard; materials and hot mix may come from plants in the centre or south of the state, and logistics are planned for full truckloads to justify the distance.
