Cottonwood Heights sits at the mouth of a canyon where Wasatch winds funnel down the slope and heavy snow loads settle against fences for months at a time. Our team at Salt Lake City Fence Company knows this terrain, and we've been installing and repairing fences here since 2012 to handle exactly what your property faces.
Homeowners in Cottonwood Heights (84093) and the surrounding Salt Lake City area call us when they need a fence built right the first time, or when wind, snow, or time has damaged the one they have. We install wood and vinyl privacy fencing, chain link, ornamental metal, and gates. We repair storm damage. We work with HOAs and the local building department to make sure every job meets code and your neighbor's expectations.
Fencing in Cottonwood Heights (84093)
Cottonwood Heights sits in a unique microclimate where down-canyon wind loads and prolonged snow pack against the bottom rail of privacy fences create real structural demands. A fence that works in Salt Lake City proper may not hold here. Post spacing, concrete depth, board-to-board construction, and racking versus stepped installation all matter when you're at the canyon mouth. We've learned what holds and what fails in this zone.
Our team has served Cottonwood Heights and the greater Salt Lake City area since 2012. We install wood and vinyl privacy fencing, chain link, aluminum and ornamental iron, pool fencing, farm and ranch fencing, and automatic driveway gates. We repair storm-damaged fences, replace posts, fix gates, and handle fence removal. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We are AFA Member Installers through the American Fence Association.

How a Fence Job Works in Cottonwood Heights
First, we come out for a free on-site assessment. We look at the site, talk through what you need, check setback and height rules with the Cottonwood Heights building department and your HOA if you're in a master-planned community, and walk you through options and cost. We'll answer questions about materials, post spacing, racking, and what holds in wind and snow. We confirm that Utah 811 utility locates are marked before we dig.
We set posts in concrete, space them correctly, and build the fence to handle the loads your location sees. For privacy fencing, we install stringers and pickets or boards to the grade and grade condition you have, whether that means racking the panels, stepping them, or adjusting for slope. We use cedar or pressure-treated pine for wood, galvanized or powder-coated hardware for ornamental metal, and proper tension and bracing for chain link. Gate hardware is self-closing and self-latching where it matters.
When the job is done, we clean up debris and walk the line with you. Your property is left ready to use.
Fence costs in Cottonwood Heights depend on material, site conditions, and what the work scope is. Wood privacy fencing typically runs from $29 per linear foot. Vinyl runs from $40 per foot. Chain link from $17 per foot. Ornamental iron from $44 per foot. Pool fencing from $36 per foot. Farm and ranch fencing from $13 per foot. A gate installation or repair starts around $500. Automatic driveway gates run from $2,950. Fence repair jobs start at $475. Storm damage assessment is free. The real cost factors are the run length, post spacing, site access, slope, and whether you're doing new installation or repair. Call us at (385) 354-7337 for a free estimate. We'll give you an honest number based on what we see.
