You can use a good quality acrylic caulking to butter the post from the concrete footing to about 8 inches above grade. A $3 tube of caulk will do about 4 posts. Will extend the life of the post about 10 to 15 years longer than the post without it.

Or do all of the above and use a stainless steel footer that also slopes.

Looks like a giant piece of shrink tubing. That's a good idea. How come I can't think of anything like that?🤣🤣

We used to use Hefty extra thick and heavy garbage bags on the bottoms of our posts when building barns. You put the bag over one end and just staple it right to the post before putting it in the hole. We did it this way because back in the day the pressure treatment they used on the wood combined with cement or mortar mix caused a chemical reaction that made the posts rot even faster than normal. We eliminated that problem altogether just like April did here but I think hers is more durable and will last longer due the thickness of her wrap.

You can also use burnt motor oil, after you change your vehicles oil. Just paint it on the posts. ✌😎

I use juniper for my fencing. So far 12 years in the ground.

Actually, the post should be mounted on piers and mounted with ties so that wood never comes in direct contact with ground or concrete.

The last fence I built I coated the bottom of the posts about 6” above ground level with flex seal. We’ll see.

Dipping them in tar works real good too.

I just treat my wooden posts with a high quality outdoor glaze even if they are already pressure treated and set them in galvanized post brackets. Or I just use concrete posts to start with.

Omg you're amazing. I was thinking of a plastic and here you are.

A fence sleeve is another great way to stop rot.

I just applied roofing tar on my post before pouring concrete. 6 years later still holding strong.

@langer24106

I started sloping the concrete away from the ground level of the post, just like you described.

There is also the ancient method of charing/burning bottom of post. The charred end is anti microbial, fungus, etc. Most civilisations have done this at sometime. I think the Japanese call it Shou Shugi Ban I’m not sure of spelling.

This is just about the perfect time for me to find out about this. I have to replace a portion of my fence this summer.

A 2 liter works just fine cut both ends then slip over the post then torch it to form.
