FAQs

What is the lifespan of the Concrete Repair Spur Post?

The concrete construction is designed for long-term durability, providing years of support with minimal maintenance.

Can I use these posts with any type of wooden fence?

Yes, these posts can be used with various wooden fence types. Ensure compatibility by selecting the correct bolt size for your wooden posts.

Do I need to paint the concrete repair spur post?

No, the concrete does not require painting. It is designed to withstand the elements without additional coatings.

How deep should I bury the concrete repair spur?

The depth of the hole depends on your local frost line and the height of your fence, but ensure the spur is buried deep enough to provide stability.

What size bolts should I use?

Use bolts that are appropriate for the thickness of the wooden post and the holes in the repair spur. Consult local hardware for appropriate bolt selection.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty aligning the repair spur with the wooden post.

Ensure the existing wooden post is straight before installation. Use shims if necessary to achieve proper alignment before bolting.

The repair spur feels unstable after installation.

Make sure the hole for the spur is deep enough and the concrete or backfill is properly compacted. Check that the bolts are securely fastened.
