How-To:
1) Assess condition of existing fence posts. Try to find weakest posts that are no longer firmly anchored in the ground, or places where 2x4 rails have detached from posts.
2) Force the fence back into an upright position using 2x4s angled into the ground.
3) Remove pickets if necessary to gain access to weak posts (if backside of fence cannot be approached).
4) Dig a post hole in desired location of new post.
5) Cut post to length (below full height of fence), and drop it into the new post hole.
6) Attach post to 2x4 rails using 3" exterior-grade screws.
7) Pour or mix new concrete into post hole. (Consider using the "screw tree" method I describe in the video to make anchors stronger.)
8) Wait for concrete to set up, then remove angled supports.
