fence

You may not realize the importance of pre planning before you begin to build a fence, it is very important to follow a plan from start to finish for a good job, on the internet you can get a set of free plans, but you should know a few things first.

Depending on how the place is, you may have certain laws to follow on a fence, and if you belong to a building society, you must get their permission to build, and without a good set of plans with a material list, you could end up with not buying NOK timber and not to have NOK money.

If you live in an area where you get cold so you have to dig your post holes under the frost line, typically about 3 meters, and it is very important to use a string stretched the full length of the fence to keep the position in line and then to use a tape measure to space posts and a level to ensure that they are right and pour in the cement to the ground and let set for 48 hours.

As of the end post means that they are sitting in dry cured cement, and this is when you use the string from one end post to the other measuring between 6 and 8 meters, it is better if you get someone to help you while you pouring cement can one person hold the post in place while the other pours cement.

Adjust post with the string that fence does not want the wavy look, but nice and straight, when the posts are in cement so it’s up to you whether you want to buckle them or not, so I look at it if they are down 3 feet surrounded by heavy wet cement and cement curing starts pretty quickly when I don’t bother with invigorating and I’ll tell you one more, the professional fence-builders not use bracing rather, it is up to you.

When the fence is finally built, and if you used pressure treated wood so you have to wait a year to seal it, if there is not pressure treated, you should use good quality paint or sealer immediately or within a few weeks to ensure that the fence will be looking well and last for years.
