Renewing the compost bins - installing a replacement post
Moving an 8ft concrete post Installing the post into the prepared hole
After the hole has been excavated to the required depth and some concrete rubble dropped into the hole, the  replacement concrete post can be installed. Two holes reached down to the water table and extra rubble was needed to prevent the heavy concrete post from sinking into the ground. The post must then be aligned vertically and at the required distance from adjacent posts. Soil removed when digging the hole is then replaced and rammed down to maintain the post in an upright position.
