As a Virginia Beach waterfront builder, we’re well-versed in the challenges that can arise when building your custom dream home. Waterfront buildings in Virginia Beach differ from those in many areas of the country due to factors such as the Chesapeake Bay Regulations, dredged soils, and lower elevations.

When building a waterfront home, especially in Virginia Beach, the planning process is the first hurdle. The CBPA approvals necessary can seem overwhelming, but JM Froehler Construction has the experience and contacts necessary to get through the process with ease.

The next step is determining the soil type so that we’re sure to construct the proper foundation for your new waterfront home in Virginia Beach.  Foundations last lifetimes if done correctly.

The most important aspect of building a waterfront home in Virginia Beach is creating a watertight envelope. With powerful Nor’easters in the winter and possible tropical systems in later summer, building a custom home that is properly flashed and sealed is critical. Wind-driven leaks are expensive, frustrating, and can take years to find and repair.
