Post Setting Facts
-
We use Skid steers and mini excavators with hydraulic auger to drill the holes.
-
Please ensure that the fence line is clear of obstacles before projects starts.
-
Posts are usually set 4ft deep but we can set up to 8ft (additional cost).
-
All utilities must be located before drilling can start.
-
Please ensure all private lines are located such as: Sprinkler lines, pool lines, power to a garage or shed, garden lighting, French drains/ weeping tiles, etc.
-
Posts are set with 3/4 down as opposed to concrete to help prevent water pooling around the base of posts leading to premature rot.
