No-Dig PostMaster Wood Fence Installation in Orlando
The Beauty of Natural Wood. The Strength of a Steel Foundation
Most wood fences fail because the posts rot or warp in the Florida soil. Our No-Dig PostMaster system solves this by using a powder coated driven-steel "armor" skeleton that stays straight and rot-free for decades—all without digging a single hole or leaving a pile of dirt on your lawn.
Why Choose PostMaster No-Dig?
- Zero-Rot Guarantee: Traditional wood posts soak up moisture like a sponge. The PostMaster is powder-coated, galvanized steel—completely immune to the "soil saw" effect and Florida’s humidity.
- 73 MPH Wind Rating: While standard wood fences act like sails in a storm, the PostMaster system is engineered for high-wind resistance, providing a rock-solid mechanical anchor.
- Lifetime Foundation: When the wood pickets eventually weather (in 15+ years), the steel skeleton remains perfectly intact. We simply unscrew the old rails and build a brand-new fence on your existing "bones."
- Zero Mess & Landscape Friendly: We drive the posts deep into the soil instead of digging wide holes. No dirt piles, no damage to tree roots, and no risk to nearby pavers or pool decks.

The Gifford No-Dig Process
- Precision Driving: We use specialized equipment to drive 9' PostMaster posts a full 3-1/2 feet into the ground.
- Structural Framing: We attach our custom, stick-built pine rails directly to the steel flange of the PostMaster.
- The "Invisible" Post Look: For homeowners who want a 100% wood look, we wrap the metal posts in matching lumber. The result is a beautiful wood fence with a hidden "super-structure" of steel.
- No-Dig Gates: We utilize the same heavy-duty driven system for gate hinge posts, ensuring your gates never sag or drag against your driveway or lawn.
The Owner’s Guarantee
"In places like Dr. Phillips or Longwood, I see brand-new wood fences leaning after just two years because the irrigation systems and sandy soil are relentless. I brought the PostMaster No-Dig system to Orlando because it’s the only way to give a homeowner a real wood fence that I can personally guarantee will stay straight and solid for a generation. It’s the strongest foundation we offer." — Jerry Gifford, Owner
