2000 Concrete and Landscaping: Local Fence Installation Serving Orem, UT 84057

Utah's clay soil expands when wet and contracts during dry spells, while freeze-thaw cycles in winter push posts upward. This movement can cause posts to tilt or separate from the concrete. 2000 Concrete and Landscaping addresses this by installing posts with deeper footings (below frost line) and using specialized concrete mixes that resist soil pressure.

Look for signs like gaps between panels, sagging gates, cracks in concrete around posts, or wood that feels spongy near the ground. In Orem, early spring is a good time to check after snowmelt. If you notice any of these, our team can do a free inspection and suggest reinforcement or replacement before a full collapse.

Yes. Many Orem homes have sloped yards near the mountains. We use stepped or racked fencing techniques to follow the grade without gaps. For concrete footings, we adjust depths to maintain stability on slopes. Our masonry experience also allows us to build retaining walls that level the ground before fence installation.
