    I would have appreciated some overhead shots of what was going on. Also the reason for such extra large dimensions? You need plenty of room to mix the cement – it becomes very stodgy, very quickly and you need plenty of space to manoeuvre. Good video though – appreciate the help!

    Good presenting style and a helpful step by step guide. Thank you

    Oh yes goggles to put cement in a hole. Very important ๐Ÿ™„

    I made the mistake of digging a hole, putting in the plastic tube, then tried packing small stones and earth around it, tamp it down, and add a bit more until if was nearly covered up.
    Tried it out with some washing………..it fell over.
    So off to YT to find an sensible way of doing it, and this shows me how to do it………B&Q next!

    Great! But how do you cut a "coin of earth?"



  6. Jordan Symmons on December 15, 2021 at 4:21 pm

    How do you put one up with concrete in your garden..



  7. Simone Godwin on December 15, 2021 at 4:22 pm

    I have a socket installed into concrete in which the pole rusted and snapped inside. How do I remove it? It’s got paving slabs/rocks around it too. Set into the concrete before I lived here

    I like the airier where is it from?



  14. Suraj Goel on December 15, 2021 at 4:38 pm

    Thank you. Followed these instructions to the letter and it turned out fine. Use a strong stick to mix in the cement and as shown on the video important to layer it as it starts to set very quickly. Digging the hole was hard work so I just added a bit of water to soften up the turf.

    I used this video, and installed my umbrella clothesline today. It looks awesome! Thank you.

    What size bag of Postcrete do you need for one job, 5Kg?



  17. Alfred Simcox on December 15, 2021 at 4:49 pm

    I have exact same pole why not mention the depth for the one demonstrating….also 2inches became 3
    presumably it doesn’t matter …Alf senior



  18. Sophie Kemsley on December 15, 2021 at 4:49 pm

    All ok. EXCEPT his "coin" of turf has shrunk to about 1/3rd of it’s original thickness by the time it’s being replaced.ย Bit of a CHEAT
