What the ground is doing here

North Utah County has a high water table in places and a mix of lake sediments and alluvium off the canyons. American Fork Canyon dumps directly into the north end.

The housing stock

Overwhelmingly post-2005 in Lehi, with historic cores in American Fork surrounded by 1990s–2010s subdivisions. Post-tension and conventional slabs alongside full basements.

What that means in Lehi & American Fork

The dominant failure in new-build country is not old concrete, it is fill. Rapid subdivision development means slabs and flatwork poured over utility trench and lot backfill that had months, not years, to settle. Driveways, garage aprons and patios sink first; that is what most calls here start as.
