Sustainability
At Colima Masonry and Paving Ltd. we strive to provide the best customer service experience and professional installations that meet and exceed our clients expectations. The construction industry has changed a lot in recent years and many companies have implemented programs and policies on sustainability to reduce their impact on the environment. As part of our sustainability program, we recycle as many excess materials as we can and reduce as much waste as possible from our installations. Among these actions, you can find us recycling metal, hard and soft plastics, repurposing concrete, and plant pots. When able to use electric tools over gas-powered tools. We also take simple actions like reusing a spacer for several jobs to reduce our company’s carbon footprint. We are committed to protecting our planet now and for future generations.
