Default Building fence and need tips

Hi everyone,

It's going to be a nice weekend so I want to make the most of the nice weather and replace a section of my fence. I have to do everything from scatch including the studs and holes to be dug.

Some main things I worry about are hitting any utilities when I dig the new holes. I think the holes should be close to 2 feet deep. Could I hit anything 2 feet down? Also, is tamping gravel around the post good enough to secure it in the ground? Or should I use cement too?

I plan on just going to Rona with the design I want and the amount of feet of fencing I need and hopefully they can get it all together for me.

What are some other things that an amateur fence builder might not know about?

Thanks
