A well-built fence does more than mark a property line. It provides privacy, security, a safe place for
children and pets and a finished look for your yard. ZZYZX Construction is a veteran-owned general
contractor in Roy, Utah that designs and installs custom fencing and gates for homeowners across
Weber County, Davis County and nearby northern Utah.
Fence updates for privacy, property edges, yards, outdoor living areas, pets, gates, and everyday use around the home.
We can help with damaged fence sections, gate issues, replacement planning, stronger posts, cleaner layouts, and practical repairs.
We look at how the yard is used, where access is needed, and what the fence needs to do so the final result fits the home and the property.

• Privacy fencing — solid designs that block views and create a quiet, private yard.
• Wood fencing — traditional fences with a natural look, built with quality posts, rails and fasteners.
• Vinyl fencing — low-maintenance fencing that resists rot and does not need painting.
• Ornamental and decorative fencing — open designs for front yards, pools and landscaping
features.
• Gates — walk gates and wider gates for vehicles, trailers and equipment access.
• Fence replacement — removing worn, leaning or storm-damaged fences and installing new ones.
• Fence and deck combinations — privacy screens and fences designed to match outdoor living
spaces.
Wood fences are popular for their natural appearance and flexibility in design. They require periodic
staining or sealing to hold up against Utah sun and snow. Vinyl fences cost more up front but generally
need less maintenance and are easy to clean. Ornamental fences provide security and visibility without
blocking views. The right choice depends on your goals, budget, HOA rules and how much maintenance
you want to do. We walk through the tradeoffs before you decide.
Fences in our area deal with strong winds along the Wasatch Front, heavy snow, freeze-thaw cycles and
soil conditions that vary from neighborhood to neighborhood. Post depth, spacing, bracing and drainage
all affect how long a fence stays straight. Sloped yards, which are common near the east bench and
Ogden Valley, also require careful planning so fence lines look clean and gates work properly.

Before building a fence, confirm your property boundaries. Fence height, placement and material rules
vary among Roy, Ogden, Layton, Kaysville and other cities, and many HOAs have additional
requirements. Front-yard fences often have tighter height limits than backyard fences, and corner lots
may have visibility rules. We recommend sorting out these questions early and speaking with your
neighbors when a shared boundary is involved. We work within the requirements for your address.
Before digging post holes, underground utilities must be located by calling Blue Stakes of Utah at 811.
This is a critical safety step on every fence project.
• Tell us about the project — share where the fence will go, what you want it to do and your
preferred timeline.
• Site visit — we review the fence line, grade, access, gates and existing conditions.
• Plan and scope — we outline fence style, height, materials, gate locations and sequencing.
• Utility locates and approvals — we confirm requirements, utility locates and any necessary
permits or HOA approvals.
• Installation — posts, rails, panels and gates are installed with attention to alignment and
durability.
• Walkthrough — we review the finished fence, gate operation and care recommendations.
Fences work best when they are planned with the rest of your yard. A privacy fence can anchor a new
deck, hide equipment, shape a play area or frame a patio. We can coordinate fencing with decks and
outdoor living spaces so materials, colors and layouts work together.

How much does a custom fence cost in Utah?
Cost depends on the length, height, material, number of gates, terrain and site access. After a site visit,
we can outline options so you can compare materials and styles.
How tall can my fence be in Roy or Weber County?
Height limits vary by city, zoning and location on the lot. Backyard fences are often allowed to be taller
than front-yard fences. We recommend checking local rules and any HOA requirements before finalizing
the design.
Do I need a permit for a fence?
Some cities require permits for certain fences, and HOAs may require approval. Requirements vary by
location, so we confirm what applies to your property.
Do I need to know my exact property line?
Yes. You are responsible for placing a fence on your own property. If boundaries are uncertain, a survey
may be a good idea before construction begins.
Is wood or vinyl better for a Utah fence?
Both can work well. Wood has a natural look and lower initial cost but needs regular upkeep. Vinyl costs
more initially and requires less maintenance. We help you compare based on your goals.
Do you install gates?
Yes. We install walk gates and wider gates for vehicles, trailers and equipment, planned with proper
posts and hardware so they swing and latch correctly.
