Fence Installation in Guatay, CA.
Fence Installation for Guatay homes, done by a local San Diego County fence crew. Most fence installs fail at the posts. We set concrete footings 30 to 36 inches deep, crowned above grade to shed water, with pressure-treated or steel-sleeved posts sized to the fence height and local wind zone.
Why is fence installation different in Mountain San Diego?
