❓ Frequently Asked Questions

+How deep should posts be?
1/3 of total post length. 6ft fence = 8ft post with 2ft buried. Cold climates must go below the frost line.
+How much concrete per post?
2 bags of 50-lb quick-set concrete per post. Pour dry mix into hole, add water. Sets in 20-40 minutes.
+How far apart are posts?
8 feet is standard for wood fences. Use 6ft spacing for windy areas or fences over 6ft tall.
+Do I need a permit?
Usually yes for fences over 6ft. Always check property lines with a survey — building on a neighbor's land creates legal issues.
