Fences set on posts that don't lean, shift, or heave, because the holes go in deep and the posts are set solid, even through Victoria rock.

Posts set to last
The Boards Aren't Why a Fence Leans
A fence lives or dies on its posts. When one leans, sags, or heaves out of the ground a year later, the boards aren’t the problem. The holes were too shallow, or the posts weren’t set right.
We come at fencing installation from the ground up. We drill the post holes, set every post plumb on a firm base, run the line straight, and stand the fence on top. Most crews rush the groundwork. We don’t, because that’s what decides whether a fence lasts five years or fifteen.
Victoria makes fence post installation harder than most places. Rock close to the surface, clay, and old roots stop a hand auger cold, which is why so many fences here end up shallow and start leaning within a season. We drill with machine augers and break through whatever’s in the way, so every post sits at the depth it needs on solid ground.
Get the posts right and the fence holds for years.

From the Quote to a Fence That Holds the Line
- We walk the fence line and quote it straight. We look at the ground, the access, and the number of posts, then give you a written price and timeline.
- We drill the post holes. Machine augers put every hole in at full depth, and we break out any rock in the way so nothing gets cut short by what’s under the surface.
- We set the posts and stand the fence. Each post goes in plumb, on a proper base, and dead on the line. With the posts locked in, the fence goes on straight and true.
- We clean up and walk it with you.
We tidy the site, haul off the spoil, and go over the finished fence line together before we leave.

What our clients have to say
The part underground
Why Auzzie's Earthworx for Fencing
A fence contractor handles the boards and the rails. We handle what goes under them, and that’s the part that keeps the whole thing standing.
- We drill post holes through rock. Machine augers and rock breaking get every hole to the right depth, even where clay or ledge stops a hand tool.
- Posts go in plumb and locked. Each one sits on a firm base, on the line, so the fence doesn’t lean or heave a season later.
- Earthworks is what we do. We’re set up for the ground side of a fence, which is the part most people don’t think about until it fails.
