We design and build gardens in Felipe Carrillo Puerto with native and adapted plants, real topsoil over the limestone, irrigation and lighting, then maintain them if you are away. Being inland, there is no salt, but heat and rainy-season humidity are high, so ventilation, anti-mould paint and good roof waterproofing matter most.
Plans and 3D views with plant palette, paths, lighting and irrigation zones before anything is planted.
Palms, chit and kuka palms, ziricote, bougainvillea, ferns and grasses chosen for sun, shade and salt exposure.
Drip lines and sprinklers on timers, with filters for hard water and connection to cisterns or treated greywater.
Water comes from the municipal network and wells, often hard, so filters and simple softeners are common recommendations. The plant palette, windbreaks and soil depth are chosen for this exposure, not copied from a catalogue.
Licences come from Felipe Carrillo Puerto municipality, with simpler procedures than the coastal towns and few community rules. Drip lines, timers and storage are sized to this supply so the garden survives the dry season.
Felipe Carrillo Puerto is an inland Mayan town with family homes, small businesses and public buildings, where demand is mostly for affordable renovations, bathrooms, floors and paint.
The town is about two hours from our workshops; we combine local materials with planned deliveries, and labour costs are lower than on the coast.
Most homes are owner-occupied, so work is scheduled with the family living in the house.
