How We Install Our Fences in Covington, LA
Our Standard Post Installation Method
4×4 Posts set approximately 24 inches deep
Bell-bottom (bell curve) footing design for added base stability
Concrete footings sized to support fence load and wind resistance
Proper post spacing for structural alignment
Level and plumb verification before concrete cure
Reinforced gate posts for added durability
Our bell-bottom footing method widens the base of the hole, creating a stronger anchor point in South Louisiana’s shifting soil conditions. This reduces movement and increases long-term fence performance to help protect your investment.
Premium Post Upgrade: Schedule 40 Steel Posts
For homeowners wanting maximum durability, we offer upgraded Schedule 40 steel post reinforcement.
Benefits of upgrading to steel posts:
Increased wind resistance
Superior structural strength
Reduced risk of post warping or twisting
Ideal for larger gates or 8-foot privacy fencing
Longer overall fence lifespan
While pressure-treated 4×4 posts remain a reliable standard option, many homeowners in Covington and throughout the Northshore choose steel reinforcement for additional long-term stability.
