LOL, usually the worst case scenario is always my first option. Not sure this would fly or not, but im gonna try pulling them up with a jack...……..BUT could I possibility dig down say a foot or so and just cut them off...…….im thinking im gonna need quite a bit of sand to raise the ground up, so even with 5-6 inches of concrete the posts should be quite a bit under.
Im gonna mess with this tomorrow, supposed to be in the upper 80"s I will wait until then just to make it all the more enjoyable. lol
Thanks
