Waterproofing inspection, crack repair, paint touch-ups and rust treatment.

What wears out first in Chetumal

Chetumal sits on a bay, so salt is milder than on the open coast, but heat and humidity are high and the city has been hit by hurricanes. Our checklist puts these problems first: rust, sealant, roof membrane, AC drains and exterior finishes.

Water systems to keep running in Chetumal

The municipal network covers most of the city, with hard water that makes filters and softeners useful in bathrooms and kitchens. Pumps, cisterns, filters and softeners are checked on every visit, because when they fail the property stops working.

Rules, licences and administration in Chetumal

Licences come from Othón P. Blanco municipality with established procedures; condominium and commercial buildings add their own administration rules.

Homes and owners in Chetumal

Chetumal is the state capital, with a large stock of family homes, government and commercial buildings, where demand is for practical renovations, bathrooms, floors, paint and maintenance contracts.

Materials, crews and access in Chetumal

Chetumal is about four hours from our workshops but has good local suppliers, so materials are bought locally and labour costs are lower than in the north.
