When temporary is the right fence
Four jobs that need a line now, not forever.
A permanent fence is the wrong spend when the need has an end date. These are the calls we get.
Events
Crowd lines, vendor areas, and parking cut-offs for a weekend or a season. Set the day before, gone the day after.
Storm damage
The fence is down, the dog needs a yard, and the insurance claim takes weeks. A temporary line holds the yard until the rebuild.
Pools and vacant lots
A pool under repair still needs a barrier. A vacant lot or a property in transition needs the street side closed until it is sold or built.
Two ways to set it
Driven posts or panels on stands.
Driven-post chain link
Posts driven into the ground with fabric stretched between them. The stronger line for anything that stands more than a few weeks, and the one we use on soil, grass, and gravel.
Panels on stands
Free-standing chain link panels on weighted bases for asphalt, concrete, and anywhere a post cannot go in the ground. Moved in minutes when the work moves.
Gates, screening, and slats
A swing or walk-through opening for crews and deliveries, and windscreen or privacy slats where the site should not be seen from the street.
Prices
Priced by the foot, removal included.
Temporary fence is priced by the foot for the run, with the set and the take-down in one written number. Tell us the footage and how long it stands, and the price comes back before we set a post. If the line turns out to be a keeper, permanent commercial chain link runs $21.99 to $27.99 per foot installed at 6 feet.
Rules
The street side still has rules.
Virginia Beach requires a zoning permit for any fence within 30 feet of a public right-of-way. Norfolk and Chesapeake draw their own lines. Before we set a temporary fence on the street side of a lot, we check which rule applies and tell you. The city pages carry the details.

Questions
Temporary fencing questions.
Do you rent temporary fencing in Virginia Beach?
We set it and take it down. The run is priced by the foot with removal included, in writing, for the time you need it. Tell us the footage, the surface, and the dates.
How fast can a temporary fence go up?
Book the look online or call (757) 703-7030. Once the footage and the date are set, most sites are set in a single visit.
Can temporary fence go on pavement?
Yes. Panels on weighted stands sit on asphalt and concrete without a hole, and move when the work moves.
Do I need a permit for a temporary fence in Virginia Beach?
A fence within 30 feet of a public right-of-way needs the city's zoning permit; deeper on an interior lot, none. We check the rule for your lot and tell you which applies before we set it.
What if the fence should stay?
Then the line becomes permanent chain link at the posted commercial rate, $21.99 to $27.99 per foot installed at 6 feet, on the commercial fencing page.
