As a result of the recent storm, I have been informed that a large 30 meter wide hole has developed on my driveway shutting off all vehicle access to my home. I am south of Dominical on the Pacific coast. I will be flying down in a few weeks to assess and get some estimates on fixing this. My original plan was to retire in September and then make my move but depending on the additional cost I may have to postpone my retirement briefly.
Does anyone have any contacts for contractors in the area or in Costa Rica that would do this type of work? Options may include filling and shoring up the hole then paving over it or building a small bridge over the hole. Not sure which would be the best solution. Any contacts will help?
Thanks.
WOW! That’s some hole. How deep is it?
That is likely more important. If it is shallow, you might be able to just make ramps on either end to get in and out. That would be the cheapest solution. If it is on a hillside then all bets are off, you might have to look at rerouting it. A thirty meter wide hole is a big bridge, not a small one.

How far south of Domincal? We have property in Coronado and one of our neighbors maybe able to help if you are as far down as we are.
I know of an American down in that area with the equipment to shore up construction with the, http://www.RamJack.com system. His name is Pepper Bonsib 506-786-5243 and his partner is Francisco Padilla, ramjackcr@yahoo.com
