Cedar Fence Installation in Springville, UT, Salt Lake County & Across Utah
A cedar fence brings warmth, natural grain, and old-fashioned curb appeal to any Wasatch Front property. CFC Fences & Decks has installed cedar fencing across Utah since 1989.
Cedar remains one of the most requested wood fencing materials for residential properties because it looks good the day it goes up and only gets more character as it weathers. It's naturally resistant to rot and insects, which matters in a climate that swings from summer heat to freeze-thaw winters. Homeowners in Provo, Orem, Eagle Mountain, and throughout Utah County choose cedar fence installation for the balance of privacy, price, and genuine wood texture that vinyl or composite fencing can't fully replicate.
Our crews build cedar privacy fences, dog ear panels, and picket fencing detailed for Utah's dry summers and heavy winter snow loads, whether the project is a full backyard perimeter or a single decorative front-yard run.

Our Process
How We Install Your Cedar Fence
Cedar fence installation is straightforward when it's handled by a crew that's built thousands of them, but the details matter. We follow the same careful process on every job, from a small backyard section to a full-perimeter cedar privacy fence.
1
On-Site Measurement and Design
We walk your property, review your fence plans and any HOA requirements, and confirm boundary lines, gate placement, and the dog ear or picket style you want.
2
Fence Blueprints and Material Selection
We finalize construction drawings, pick your cedar grade and post spacing, and schedule your utility locates before digging begins.
3
Post Setting and Framing
Posts are set below Utah's frost line with proper concrete footings, then rails go up square and level across the full fence run.
4
Panel Installation and Finish Work
Cedar boards are installed tight and consistent, gates are hung and tested, and the site is cleaned up before we walk the finished fence with you.

Common Questions
Cedar Fence Installation Questions, Answered
How long does a cedar fence installation take?
Most residential cedar privacy fence projects take two to four days from post setting to finished panels, depending on the length of the fence line, gate count, and site access. We'll give you a specific timeline during your free estimate.
Does a cedar fence require a permit in Utah?
Many cities along the Wasatch Front require a permit for new fence construction, especially for taller privacy fences or corner lots with setback rules. Our team handles the permit process and confirms your local height and placement requirements before installation.
What height should I choose for a dog fence?
For most dogs, a 6-foot cedar privacy fence provides secure containment, though we can build taller sections in specific areas if you have a dog that jumps or climbs. We'll talk through dog fence height options based on your breed and yard layout during design.
How do I maintain a cedar fence in Utah's climate?
Cedar holds up well against rot and insects on its own, but staining or sealing every two to three years keeps the wood from graying and protects it from sun exposure and moisture. We can recommend products suited to your specific fence style and sun exposure.
