How it goes
A walk of the line, not a sales visit.
Most fence quotes are written from the driveway. Ours start at the back corner. The stump, the low spot, the easement, the HOA rule: we find them before they find your price. (757) 703-7030 rings the people who build the fence, not a call center.

Our most installed fence
The 6-foot privacy, built the VB Fences way.
$35.13 per foot installed, pressure-treated, dog-ear pickets. Most of what we build in Hampton Roads is this fence. Here is what you get that the next bid leaves out.
Interweave cross-section rails
Three 2x4 rails on every run, and the seams never line up. The run starts with a 16-foot top rail, an 8-foot center rail, and a 16-foot bottom rail, then 16-footers to the end. The center seam lands between the top and bottom seams at every post. The only place all three rails end together is a corner.
Posts 27 inches in the ground, never cut
Every post goes 27 inches deep, full length, set in concrete. Level comes from the hole, not the saw. Most installers bury 18 inches and cut the tops off to make the line look even. We do not cut posts.
Upgraded handles, hardware, and Peak metal gate corners
Every gate hangs on upgraded handles and latches, heavy-duty hinges, and a Peak metal corner gate kit. The frame cannot rack, so the gate swings the same in year five as on day one.

How do I book an estimate?
Use the online scheduler at https://book.vbfences.com/, call the office, or submit the quote request form.
How much does a fence cost in Virginia Beach?
From our price book, installed per linear foot: 6-foot wood privacy $35.13, vinyl privacy $41.00 and up, residential chain link $15.99 to $19.99, commercial 6-foot chain link $21.99 to $27.99. Walk gates from $545 and double drive gates from $1,143, installed. Aluminum is quoted per project. Site conditions like stumps, low spots, and demo move the number, so we walk the line and put the price in writing; it holds unless the scope of work changes. Estimates are free.
Do I need a permit to build a fence in Virginia Beach, Norfolk, or Chesapeake?
It depends on the lot more than the fence. Virginia Beach requires a $61 zoning permit for any fence within 30 feet of a public right-of-way, pulled by the owner or a Virginia licensed contractor with a sealed survey. Norfolk requires a free Zoning Certificate only on corner and through lots. Chesapeake sets height and placement by district under § 14-201 of its zoning ordinance. Pool barriers need a building permit in every city. We pull the permit or Zoning Certificate and submit the HOA package as part of the job, and the Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and Chesapeake pages carry each city's rules with the city's own numbers.
How tall can my fence be?
Front yards are 4 feet in all three cities. Behind the front setback, Virginia Beach allows up to 8 feet on an interior lot. Norfolk and Chesapeake cap residential side and rear fences at 6 feet; Norfolk allows 8 only where the line abuts a non-residential district, and Chesapeake allows 8 only in business and multi-family districts with zoning approval. Corner lots carry their own street-side limits in every city. Sources: the Virginia Beach Fence and Wall Bulletin (rev. Nov. 2025), the Norfolk Fence Regulations brochure (Feb. 2024), and Chesapeake Zoning Ordinance § 14-201 (amended May 2024).
What makes VB Fences different from other fence companies in Virginia Beach?
A six-builder crew, not a fifty-truck operation. The line is walked and measured before anything is quoted, the jobsite is left clean every day, and the written price is turn-key, no surprise add-ons.
