A fence protects what matters most. Loving your fence back is how you return the favor.

Fence maintenance is one of the most overlooked aspects of homeownership in Utah. Small acts of care can dramatically extend the life of a fence and prevent costly repairs.

How to care for your fence in Utah

Wood fences benefit from regular inspections and resealing every few years. Look for early signs of cracking, splintering, or moisture damage near ground level.

Vinyl fences should be cleaned periodically to remove mineral buildup and dirt. Clearing snow away from panels prevents unnecessary stress.

Metal fences should be checked for chips in coating and moving parts like hinges should be lubricated seasonally.

Preventing small issues from becoming big ones

Loose boards, leaning posts, or dragging gates are easier and cheaper to fix early. Ignoring them allows damage to spread.

Western Fence Company educates every client on how to care for their fence because maintenance is part of long term loyalty.

A relationship worth maintaining

A fence that is cared for protects longer, looks better, and performs better. Loving your fence back is not complicated. It is consistent.
