Flagpoles in Metairie

Jefferson Parish's commercial spine: medical offices, retail, dealerships and dense residential strung along Veterans Memorial Boulevard between the river and the lake. We cover Metairie and the Jefferson Parish area, including Veterans Memorial Boulevard and Lakeside Shopping Center, Old Metairie and Metairie Road, Fat City, Bonnabel and the Lake Pontchartrain lakefront, the Causeway approach, Elmwood and the Airline Drive corridor.

Wind here. Metairie sits in a lakeside and low-lying suburban area, which works out to roughly 140 mph under the code your town uses. That figure decides how wide and how thick the pole has to be, so we check it against your address before we quote. Metairie is not a city. It is unincorporated Jefferson Parish, so everything from the ordinance to the final inspection sits with the parish and there is no town hall of its own to apply to. Old Metairie adds a layer on top of that: the Old Metairie Neighborhood Conservation District, reviewed by the Old Metairie Commission, with the Metairie Ridge Tree Preservation District alongside it, so the pole and the canopy over it are both looked at before anything is ordered. The ridge those are named for is real ground, an old distributary levee running under Metairie Road a few feet above everything either side of it. Step north off it toward the lake and you are on drained, settling ground, where the depth of the hole becomes a calculation instead of a habit. The figure is about 140 mph, and from Bonnabel out to the Causeway there is open Pontchartrain in front of you with nothing in the way to break it up.

Most of the people who call us from Metairie are medical offices and clinics, law and insurance offices, retail centres and car dealerships, churches and synagogues, private and parish schools, funeral homes and condominium associations.
