Get by the fence fixed. A 15’ section blew down in the heavy winds we had a few days ago, I think the posts rotted, could have been due to the fiber install by it, because the rest of the fence seems fine. I don’t have time to learn to sink a post right now, so I’ll need to find a contractor to do it
We had our fence posts fall down twice last year (Two different portions of the fence). I had to dig out and pull up the old rotten post and the now unattached concrete out of the ground. It was a simple process of just digging and pull up the concrete but a ton of work since its large and heavy. We then put a new post directly in the hole and used Sika PostFix instead of concrete to stabilize. We then used a pre-built fence section to replace the rotting boards. It was pretty simple but a huge pain in the butt.
I know that our fence is on its last legs. So we are trying to keep it standing as best and cheap as possible until we fix the whole thing
That reminds me, I also need to redo my fence.
I have 23 fence posts that will probably need to all be pulled and replaced, and then do all of the rafters and whatnot.
Yay
Sounds terrible. Good luck
How long did it take you to do it?
I did the whole thing including getting the wood in an afternoon / most of a day. The real trick is that the cement is really deep in there so digging low enough to get it all out by hand was a lot of work. Also it was hard to tell when the cement stopped. I needed to get it done because there was a gap in our fence that our dog could get out of and it happened on the one warm day in February the first time and early March the second time so nice weather was not a given. So I went fast.
