Commercial Fencing Virginia Beach VA | Call Seaside Contracting

In Virginia Beach, the primary cause is the high water table and sandy soil, which can lead to foundation settlement or heaving. This movement often causes fence posts to tilt, rot, or pull away from the ground. Seaside Contracting addresses this root problem with foundation repair methods like helical piers or concrete underpinning, providing a stable base that prevents future fence failure.

Common signs include gates that won't close properly, visible gaps between fence panels and the ground, leaning posts, or cracks in nearby concrete walkways. If your fence in a neighborhood like Bay Colony or near the Linkhorn Park area shows these issues, it's often due to shifting soil beneath. Seaside Contracting can inspect the foundation and recommend permanent solutions to realign and secure your fence.

We start with a thorough inspection of the soil and foundation conditions, typical around landmarks like the Lynnhaven River or in the Kings Grant area. For non-structural issues, we can replace rotted posts with concrete-set, galvanized steel supports. If the ground settlement is significant, we perform foundation repair—using piering to lift and stabilize the surrounding structure. This ensures your fence lasts through Virginia Beach's coastal weather.
