How To STOP Fence Posts Rotting / Install postsaver sleeves

How to stop fence posts from rotting at the base / ground level. In this video I show you how you can guard against fence posts rotting at the base where they meet the ground. Fence posts always rot at the base due to microbes, bacteria and moisture being present in this location. Here I install Postsaver sleeves and Fence armour protection.
Here I show a couple of excellent products that you can use to help increase the life of your fence posts. I use a product called Postsaver and also another product called Fence Armor.
I show how to install these and also explain the benefits of using them.

I hope that the video provides some value and all products featured can be found in the description below -

Wow Barry, this is awesome! Thank you so much for showcasing Fence Armor and Postsaver Sleeves. Just a little tip about Fence Armor, the best installation is about 1" above the ground to sit at trimmer level. Very well done and we appreciate the support.

Great video. But how special is Postsever in addition to seal the post from moisture? There are different post sealers, such as asphalt sealant, which are easier to apply, cheaper and waterproof.

Great video I’ve been fencing since 2001 commercial and residential. With my fence company I’ve been looking to offer the sleeves wish they weren’t 10$ a piece but like you said investment with fence boards 7.00 a piece best to protect those posts

Thanks for making n sharing this video 👍👍👍

What about just coating that area with bitumen?

Does screwing holes though the PostSaver void the warranty?

Great video Barry like the strimmer protectors and not a bad cost either

Great video. I've been thinking about building a wooden frame for the Wisteria plant the Mrs has planted except I was worried about wood rot til now!

Now I know how to protect the wood thanks to your video! Many thanks.

PS does putting the screws through the Post Saver compromise the protection a little bit? As it gives moisture a path into the wood. And would it void the guarantee?

This is great but most customers are so tight they will not pay the extra cost. What chance you got.
Would a heatgun do the job.

When I put the sleeves on the posts they melted didn't have the flame close to them, don't know what I'm doing wrong I ruined 3 of them

Has anyone tried this product on split rail fence posts?

[AlexGnok]

the warranty now will be void as you've burned through the outer plastic sheet in few places

You won't have the same problems with a concrete post I have a lot of fencing in my garden and the concrete posts have been in at least 34 years since the house was built and there still standing, wooden posts are a complete waste of time and money👍
