The Cowboy Fencing Inc - West Jordan's Trusted Fence Builders

In West Jordan, the main causes are soil movement from seasonal freeze-thaw cycles and strong winds common along the Wasatch Front. Poor initial installation or shallow post holes can also lead to instability over time.

Look for signs like visible gaps between fence boards, a noticeable lean, or gates that stick or sag. Cracked or rotted wood near the ground and loose hardware are also red flags that it’s time to call an expert.

For West Jordan’s wind, we suggest steel or aluminum fences with reinforced posts, or heavy-duty wood with proper post anchoring. Using concrete footings and proper hardware helps the fence withstand gusts without leaning.
