How to install vinyl fencing - layout and post installation

[fate]

I didn't even mix my concrete I put it in the ground dry and let nature harden it. I did this about 10 years ago and my fence is still standing strong.

No roots, boulders or old irrigation pipe. Nice Job!

Two 80 pounds bags of concrete is a ridiculous amount of concrete for one 5”X5” fence post.

Ryan, it's not necessary to use a sonotube for this application. The entire footing will be above the frost line in most climates where heaving is a problem so having a smooth column won't really make a difference.

I would pour the concrete first in the hole then put the pole in but do one at a time. The concrete will definitely be inside of Pole.

That’s a sleeve. Where’s the wooded posts?!

And I recommend getting a post hole auger and forgetting about that piece of junk he’s trying to use.

36" inches deep ?! Btw cement comes in a bag- they are setting posts in concrete.

I was thinking there was wood sticking out of the ground the vinyl over that

I’m curious what the material cost, per foot on a three rail fence?

You don't need no stinking permit.

Utility lines are marked with many colors, but not white. Make sure to use WHITE paint to mark for fence posts.

my fence is giong to be three foot above ground. how deep do i have to dig post holes/

[RyanSmith-uocn]

One thing they are doing wrong, is you never poor concrete into a hole without the use of a sonotube. Because if you just pour concrete into a hole, all that ruff surface area on the concrete allows the earth to move the pour. Therefor in time your pour will lift out of the earth due to freezing.

My neighbor had one of your fences installed recently. The contractor did NOT follow your guidelines! Very few of the posts reach 3!0". The cement was dry poured so they could install the entire fence in 1-1/2 days (approx 160 LF of fence along 3 elevations!).. One of the 5" gate posts only reached a depth of Which happened to be mine as i wished to have the area between houses look the same. Only 11" down and a dry pour ? Are you kidding me? For a 4' x 6' gate? I'm a contractor and I plan on holding these people to the same standards I'm held to!

How long are the posts? in Ohio, you have to put them 42"deep
