During the first few years of my fence building career, I always dug my post holes by hand. It wasn't until I hired my first employee that I realized how inefficient it is. It would take 1-2 hours to get one hole dug for me to the correct depth of 3 feet, which just isn't efficient! And even though I could dig that hole in 30 mins, my inexperienced employee wouldn't be able to build the gates or install posts by himself just yet.
Once I tried hiring a skid steer operator with an auger attachment, it completely changed the game! Now, I can teach my employee how to build gates and install post holes while the operator digs holes for an entire backyard in 30 minutes or less. And while most contractors would charge for the auger service, We don't. Just Another way Cozy Home Construction saves you time and money!
