Piers, Foundations, and Steps Built for Flood Elevation on the Pungo River

Most of Belhaven NC sits in the AE flood zone, with a base flood elevation of 5 feet, and the town requires new construction to be protected up to 7 feet.

After Hurricane Fran in 1996, the town raised 232 homes, and more followed after Hurricane Floyd, per FEMA. We build and repair the brick and block piers, foundations, and stem walls those homes sit on.

  • Every flood zone foundation we build goes to the elevation on your approved plans, with flood vents where the plans require them.
  • Masonry and concrete go below flood level because both handle water.
  • Tall brick steps and landings reach raised front doors.
  • Slabs and driveways sit on compacted stone, sloped to drain.

Repairing Older Homes and Downtown Brick Buildings in Belhaven NC

Half the homes in Belhaven NC were built before about 1968, and more than a fifth before the 1940s. Downtown, the commercial historic district on Main Street and Pamlico Street is mostly brick buildings from about 1910 to 1965.

Our masonry repair Belhaven NC work matches mortar to the old brick, replaces rusted steel lintels, and rebuilds failing chimneys and steps. We repair rather than replace when repair will hold. Downtown, we check whether any approval applies before work starts. See masonry repair and tuckpointing.

Permits, CAMA Rules, and Building Near the Pungo River

Building near the water in Belhaven NC usually means a CAMA review, because land within 75 feet of the Pungo River or Pantego Creek shoreline is a protected coastal zone.

  • We confirm with the Town of Belhaven NC and Beaufort County which office handles your permit.
  • New foundations and additions go to the elevation on your approved plans through the floodplain permit.
  • Hard surfaces in that shoreline zone are limited to 30 percent unless an approved stormwater design is used, so we plan each waterfront patio, walk, and driveway to fit.
  • Projects there usually need a CAMA permit, and we confirm CAMA and floodplain requirements before we build.
  • Brick mailboxes along US 264 and NC 99 follow NCDOT right of way rules.
