Suffolk is Virginia's largest city by land area, and that means a mix of compact older neighborhoods near the downtown core and working farmland stretching across the county. Homeowners here deal with everything from mature shade trees in tight residential lots to open-country fencing that marks property lines across timber and pasture ground.
Chesapeake Fence Company has served Suffolk and the surrounding Chesapeake area since 2013. When a fence comes down in a storm, leans too far to trust, or simply needs repair instead of replacement, we show up with the same crew that knows your neighborhood and the work it takes to build a fence right. We are AFA Member Installers, fully insured, and we work from your property line on out.
Fencing in Suffolk (23434)
Suffolk's landscape is split between the older, tree-lined residential core and the working farms and timber operations that define much of the county. That split shapes what we install. In the compact neighborhoods near downtown, we run wood and vinyl privacy fences on tight lot lines, often working around mature trees, established drainage patterns, and the setback and height rules that the city enforces. On the farm and ranch properties that stretch across the county, we build post-and-rail, wire, and board fencing that can run for hundreds of linear feet and handle the real work of property definition and livestock containment.
We have insured crews trained in both worlds. Wood and privacy fence installation, vinyl, chain link, ornamental metal, gates, and automatic driveway gates are all in our wheelhouse. Fence repair, storm damage assessment, post replacement, and fence staining and restoration are the work we do most often, because a fence that can be fixed is worth fixing.

How a Job Works in Suffolk
You call us at (757) 296-1863 or reach out online. We schedule a free on-site assessment. We walk the fence line with you, understand what you need, and talk through the options. If you have an existing survey, we work from that. If you do not, we install on the line you identify. We check the local setback, height, and material rules that the city of Suffolk enforces, and if your property is in an HOA community, we note what the architectural standards allow. We also talk about Virginia 811 utility locates, which are required by law before we dig any post holes.
Once you approve the estimate, we schedule the work. Our crew shows up on time, does the job right, and leaves your property clean. We set posts in concrete for strength and longevity, space them to code, and install stringers, pickets, rails, and gates so they operate smoothly and last. If the work is repair, we fix what failed and explain why it happened. If it is new installation, we walk you through the finished fence and answer any questions.
A wood privacy fence in Suffolk typically runs from $27 per linear foot. Vinyl fencing starts at $38 per linear foot. Chain link is our most affordable option at $15 per linear foot, and ornamental metal (aluminum and iron) starts at $42 per linear foot. Fence repair work starts at $460. Gate installation and repair start at $485, and automatic driveway gates begin at $2,900. Farm and ranch fencing, which is common on the working properties across Suffolk County, starts at $12 per linear foot. The final cost depends on the fence type you choose, the length of the run, the condition of the ground, whether posts need to be set in concrete or tamped, and whether we are doing repair or replacement.
