re: Privacy Fence Questions

My neighbors on both sides already have hurricane fences around their yards. So if i put a privacy fence up, there will be back to back fences around my backyard with about a foot of space in between the two fences.

This makes putting your fence up even easier.Take your back line for example. If you are going to run your fence at the back of your yard from one neighbors corner to the other neighbors corner (assuming that they were set straight up and down), run a string about 18" off of the ground from corner to corner and run another one about 48" off of the ground above that one. When you set your post look at your two strings. If the post is flush with both of them but not pushing one out then the post is good in that direction(you still have to put the level on the side of the post to make sure it is staight up and down that way though). You can easily do this project and will love it once your done.
