Midlothian Fence Permit Process (Simplified)

Chesterfield County requires permits for most fences. Here's how we make the process seamless for Midlothian homeowners.

1

Property Survey or Plat Review

We verify your property lines and setback requirements using your survey (if available) or county GIS records. Most Midlothian subdivisions require 5-10ft setbacks from property lines.

Evergreen Service: We obtain your plat from county records if you don't have a survey ($0 cost to you).

2

Miss Utility Locate Request (811)

Virginia law requires underground utility marking before any digging. We submit 811 tickets and wait the required 3 business days for utility companies to mark lines.

Evergreen Service: We handle all 811 coordination and follow-up with utility companies.

3

Chesterfield County Building Permit Application

We submit permit applications to Chesterfield County Building Inspections (9501 Government Center Pkwy). Includes:

  • • Site plan showing fence location and dimensions
  • • Property line verification documentation
  • • For pool fences: Pool layout and safety compliance statement
  • • Permit fee (typically $50-150 depending on fence length)

Evergreen Service: We prepare and submit all paperwork. Permit fees are included in your quote.

4

Permit Approval & Installation

Typical approval time: 5-10 business days for standard residential fences, 3-5 days for pool fences (expedited process). Once approved, we schedule installation.

Evergreen Service: We monitor permit status daily and notify you immediately upon approval.

5

Final Inspection

After installation, Chesterfield County inspects the fence to verify code compliance (height, setbacks, pool safety if applicable). We schedule the inspection and meet the inspector on-site.

Evergreen Service: We handle all inspection scheduling and coordination. Our 100% first-time pass rate means no delays.

Total Timeline: 2-3 Weeks from Contract to Completion

(Permit processing: 5-10 days • Installation: 2-3 days • Inspection: 1-2 days)

"We needed a pool fence installed before our county inspection deadline. Evergreen got the permit approved in 4 days, installed the aluminum fence in 2 days, and we passed inspection on the first attempt. Couldn't have been smoother."

"180 feet of 6ft white vinyl privacy fence transformed our backyard. The quote calculator gave us an accurate estimate upfront — final price was within $50 of the initial quote. Professional crew, clean worksite, beautiful results."

— Karen & Tom R.

"Evergreen handled our entire Hallsley HOA approval process and Chesterfield County permit. We didn't have to do anything except choose the color. Fence went up 3 weeks after signing the contract. This is how it should be done."
