You woke up, looked out the window, and saw it -- fence panels scattered across the yard, posts tilted at ugly angles, your dog eyeing the gap like it is Christmas morning. If you live anywhere near the Point of the Mountain wind corridor, this is not a matter of if. It is a matter of when. The gap between Lehi and Draper funnels wind across every subdivision from Traverse Mountain to Thanksgiving Point, and fences catch the worst of it. We have been putting them back together for years.
But wind is only half the story. Sit at 4,500 feet on Utah County's rocky clay bench and you get freeze-thaw cycles that turn marginal post footings into leaning posts by their third winter. We see it constantly in the older parts of American Fork and Pleasant Grove -- fences from 2008 or 2010 where the builder dug 18-inch post holes and called it good. Three Utah winters later those posts are cocked 10 degrees sideways. And it is not just old fences. Some of the newer subdivisions in Saratoga Springs and Eagle Mountain have the same problem because the original installer cut corners on footing depth to save time on a 200-lot development.
We fix all of it, on every material. Vinyl panels cracked down the middle? We swap them out. Cedar boards that splintered or warped after a wet spring? New boards, matched to your existing stain. Chain link sagging like a hammock between posts? We re-tension the mesh and replace any bent top rail. Iron pickets that took a hit from a fallen branch on the Alpine bench? Straightened or replaced and touched up to match. Whatever is broken, we will figure out the fastest, most honest way to make it right.
Here is something most fence companies will not say out loud: sometimes a repair is a waste of your money. If the posts are solid and you only need two or three panels swapped, a repair is a no-brainer. But if the posts are rotting below grade, the footings are crumbling in four or five spots, and the whole line is leaning like dominoes, we are going to tell you that you are better off putting that repair budget toward a new fence. We would rather lose a repair job and earn your trust than charge you to patch something that will fail again next spring. You make the call -- we just give you the honest picture.
No charge, no commitment. We walk the fence line, check every post for stability, look at what is actually damaged versus what just looks bad, and tell you exactly what we think. If it is a repair, we quote it on the spot. If it is a replacement conversation, we will say so.
Nobody wants a repair that sticks out like a sore thumb. We match vinyl profiles, wood grain and stain color, chain link gauge, and iron powder coat as closely as possible. Common parts ride on the truck. Specialty items take a short order window -- we will tell you the timeline up front.
Most repairs wrap up in a single visit. Post resets, panel swaps, gate rehangs, mesh re-tensioning -- we come ready to finish the job, not schedule a follow-up. Bigger wind damage events that took out a long run may need a second morning, but that is the exception.
We walk the repaired section with you, make sure the line is straight, the gate swings right, and the new material blends with the old. If you are not satisfied, we are still standing there with our tools. Everything gets cleaned up -- no scrap vinyl or concrete chunks left in your yard.
It depends on what actually failed. If the posts snapped at ground level or the concrete footings cracked loose, those sections need new posts. But if the panels blew out while the posts held firm, we can usually replace just the damaged panels and have you back to normal in one visit. We see this a lot after spring windstorms along the Point of the Mountain corridor between Lehi and Draper. We will tell you straight whether a repair makes sense or if you are throwing money at something that needs replacing.
The prevailing wind through the Point of the Mountain gap blows from the south-southwest, pushing sustained pressure against west-facing fence panels. Over time that lateral force loosens posts that were not set deep enough or had undersized concrete footings. Combine that with frost heave from the rocky clay soil sitting at 4,500 feet elevation, and posts shift a little more each winter. The lean almost always goes the same direction because the wind is so consistent here.
We stock the most common vinyl profiles, caps, and rails because wind damage repairs are a steady part of our work in North Utah County. If your fence uses a standard white or tan vinyl panel, we can usually get to you within a few days. Custom colors or less common profiles may require a short order lead time, but we will give you a timeline up front so you know what to expect.
Yes. We can reset individual posts by pulling them, digging the hole to proper depth below the frost line, and pouring a new footing without disturbing the rest of the fence line. This is actually one of the most common repairs we do in newer Lehi subdivisions like Holbrook Farms, Traverse Mountain, and the developments off SR-92. Some builders set posts at 18 inches when they should be at 30 to 36 inches for this soil and wind exposure. Resetting them properly is a fraction of the cost of a full replacement.
If the repair quote is getting close to what a new fence would cost, it is time to start fresh. We set posts deeper and use beefier footings than the builder did the first time around.
