I need a decent sized fence installed at my new house and I really do not want to do it myself, does anyone know how much it runs to have a person dig the holes and set the posts? I will finish the rest. Its about a a 240 foot fence. ---

6x8 stockade panels are ~$35 per, at Lowes / Ho Depot. Rent a posthole digger for a weekend for ~$60 - $80. Insert 4x4s (~$3 for 8’er) & premix crete (~$5 for 40#), set posts, cure. Attach 6x8 panels (few days later, or following weekend). Voila. :gotme: ---

I’m using the 6’ fiberglass white fencing. We currently have the 6’ wood stockade and it is progressively deteriorating. ---

seriously, do it yourself with a few buddies. i did mine 2 years ago, and wasn’t too difficult at all. In comparrison to price you would pay someone else, you can buy materials, beer and food for friends and still have a few grand left over. ---

Fuck that… we rented a hole digger… the big one. In the end we had to call 77DRILL, because we hit rock & clay at ~10" down. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/i-need-a-fence-for-my-home-who-builds-them-or-knows-a-good-person-to-call/30857.md?page=2)
