Introduction

It’s that time of year again, where every self respecting home owner panics, when the “windy season starts”. This post should go quicker than your fence in a 80mph gale.

I just want to show off some of the repairs I have done over the years.

Below is a fence I repaired, by digging out the original concreted post holes and then refilling them with a new post.

After that I increased the height to create a privcy screen. Normaly I wouldn’t do this, but the fence was between 2 buildings, so I felt comfortable it would survive a bit of wind.

The next one is a picture of a greenhouse I built, but I also built the boundry fence behind it, using a fether-edge board technique on gravelboard.

The last one is hit and miss fencing I made out of old feather-edge boards, for a sustanability focused client.

All these fences were made using my Paslode first fix nail gun.
