Privacy, Security, and Style Built for the North Carolina Coast. A fence is more than just a boundary—it’s the finishing touch on your "Total Home Transformation." At Nova Roofing + Construction LLC, we design and install custom fencing solutions that provide the privacy you desire and the structural integrity required to withstand the Atlantic winds. From 28428 to Sunset Beach, we build fences that look beautiful and stay standing.
The "Nova Standard" for Coastal Fencing
In a beach town, a poorly installed fence is just a sail waiting for a storm. We do things differently:
Deep-Set Posts: We set our posts deeper than the industry standard to account for sandy soil conditions.
Wind-Resistant Design: We offer styles that allow for airflow or use reinforced posts to minimize the "sail effect" during high-wind events.
Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: We use galvanized or stainless steel fasteners to prevent those ugly rust streaks common on coastal fences.
Licensed General Contractors: We ensure all underground utility lines are marked (811) and that your fence complies with local HOA and city setback regulations.
Our Fencing Solutions
We offer a variety of styles and materials to match your home’s aesthetic and your family’s needs.
Vinyl (PVC) Fencing: The ultimate low-maintenance choice for the coast. Vinyl won't rot, peel, or corrode from salt air. Available in privacy, semi-privacy, and classic picket styles.
Custom Wood Fencing: For a natural, timeless look, we use pressure-treated lumber designed for ground contact. From classic vertical board-on-board to modern horizontal designs, we customize every panel.
Aluminum Fencing: Get the look of wrought iron without the rust. Our powder-coated aluminum fencing is perfect for pool enclosures and perimeter security without blocking your coastal views.
Why Choose Nova for Your Residential Fence?
Built to Stand Tall Against Coastal Winds and Salt Air At Nova Roofing + Construction LLC, we understand that a fence in Carolina Beach or Sunset Beach faces challenges that inland fences don't. From shifting sandy soil to corrosive salt spray, we use specialized techniques and materials to ensure your fence remains a beautiful, sturdy boundary for years to come.
Specialized Coastal Anchoring: In our sandy 28428 soil, standard post-setting often isn't enough. We set our posts deeper and use specific concrete mixing ratios to prevent "leaning" or "frost heave," ensuring your fence stays level and true.
Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: The salt air is a fence killer. We exclusively use stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners and gate hardware. This prevents the unsightly black rust streaks and "frozen" hinges common with lower-quality installations.
Licensed & Permitted Professionals: As a Licensed NC General Contractor, we don't just dig holes. We handle all 811 utility markings and municipal permits to ensure your fence is legally placed and doesn't interfere with underground lines.
Wind-Resistant Design: We offer "shadowbox" and semi-privacy styles that allow air to flow through the fence, reducing the "sail effect" during high-wind events and protecting your investment from being blown over.
The Benefits of a Nova Professional Fence Maximum Privacy and Peace of Mind Create a private sanctuary for your family. Our high-quality privacy fences block out street noise and prying eyes, allowing you to enjoy your backyard or pool area in total seclusion.
Safe Containment for Pets and Children: Protect what matters most. Our secure gate systems and gap-free installations provide a reliable barrier, keeping pets and children safely within your property limits.
Maintenance-Free Longevity: By choosing our premium vinyl or powder-coated aluminum options, you can say goodbye to painting and staining. These materials are "set it and forget it," requiring only a simple water rinse to stay looking brand new.
Increased Property Value: A professionally installed fence is a major selling point. It defines your property lines clearly and adds a "finished" look to your home's exterior, often providing a high return on investment when it's time to sell.
Integrated Curb Appeal: We don't just install a fence; we integrate it into your "Total Home Transformation." We can match your fencing style to your Nova deck, siding, or sunroom for a cohesive, high-end look.
The Licensed Advantage
Why hiring a Licensed Contractor matters in NC
In North Carolina, hiring a licensed professional ensures that your project follows strict building codes and safety regulations. For coastal homes, this is critical—improperly installed roofing can void your insurance. With Nova, you get the security of a team that is vetted, tested, and state-authorized.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit to install a fence in Carolina Beach or Sunset Beach? Yes. Most coastal municipalities require a zoning permit for new fences to ensure they don't violate property setbacks or height restrictions. As a Licensed General Contractor, Nova Roofing & Construction handles the permitting process and ensures your fence is compliant with local 28428 building codes and HOA regulations.
How deep do you set your fence posts? Because coastal soil is often sandy and loose, we set our posts deeper than the standard 24 inches—typically reaching 30 to 36 inches deep depending on the fence height. We also use high-strength concrete to anchor them, preventing the fence from leaning during high-wind events.
Which fence material is best for homes near the ocean? Vinyl (PVC) and Powder-Coated Aluminum are the best choices for salt-air environments. They are completely immune to salt corrosion, rotting, and rust. While wood is a beautiful and affordable option, it requires more maintenance (staining/sealing) to survive the intense North Carolina humidity.
What happens if you hit a utility line while digging? We never "just dig." Before we break ground, we coordinate with NC 811 to have all underground utility lines (gas, water, electric, and fiber) clearly marked. This is a critical safety step that protects your home and your neighbors.
Can you install a fence on a sloped yard? Absolutely. We use a "stepping" or "raking" method depending on the severity of the slope and the type of fence material. This ensures your fence looks level and follows the natural contour of your land without leaving large gaps at the bottom.
How do your fences hold up during a hurricane? While no fence is completely hurricane-proof, we use reinforced posts and heavy-duty hardware to give yours the best chance of survival. We also offer "Shadowbox" or "Louvered" styles that allow wind to pass through the boards, significantly reducing the pressure on the posts during a storm.
Do you offer a warranty on your fencing? Yes! We provide a craftsmanship warranty on our installations. Additionally, many of our vinyl and aluminum products come with limited lifetime manufacturer warranties against peeling, flaking, or corroding.
