Topsoil and Materials in American Fork
Much of American Fork sits on fine lakebed silt and clay left by Lake Bonneville. It packs hard, drains slowly and gets sticky when it is wet. On a new lot, builders often leave the subsoil from the basement dig on top. Grass and plants on that ground root shallow and dry out between watering days, and on a metered line you end up paying to water a lawn that still looks thirsty.
Good topsoil fixes most of that. We sell regular topsoil and screened topsoil, which has the rocks and clods taken out so it spreads smooth for sod or seed. We also carry landscape rock for beds, fill dirt for low spots and road base for patios, walks and pads. Near the canyon mouth, where the native ground is rocky, a layer of screened topsoil gives roots a place to live.
Ordering is simple. Call or text us with what you need and how much. You can pick it up at our Provo yard or have it dropped off at your American Fork home, and it is billed at the location. Not sure how much to get? Tell us the size of the area and how deep you want it, and we will help you work out the number.
American Fork sits at the foot of Timpanogos where the river comes out of the canyon, so one town runs from soft lakebed silt that ponds and settles on the flats to boulder ground at the canyon mouth, all watered on the city's metered PI schedule.

The American Fork challenges
On newer lots, the top layer is often packed subsoil, not topsoil. Sod laid on it roots an inch or two and browns in July. Loosening the ground and adding topsoil first gives the roots room to grab water on your watering days.
Lakebed silt and clay can seal at the surface, so water runs off before it soaks in. Spreading new topsoil over hard silt can trap water at the line between them. Loosen or till the old ground first so the two layers mix a bit.
On the east side, the native soil can be full of cobbles, and water drains through it fast. Screened topsoil spread deep enough over that rock helps beds and lawn hold water from one watering day to the next, instead of losing it to the gravel below.
A short order means a second trip. A big over-order means a pile you have to move or get rid of. Measure the area, pick a depth, and we can help turn that into cubic yards before you place the order.
The J&H approach
Tell us the material, the amount and your American Fork address. We confirm the price and set a pickup or drop-off time that works for you, so you are not waiting around all day for a truck.
If you have a truck or trailer, swing by our Provo yard and pick up your order. Bring a tarp to cover the load for the drive home up I-15, since loose dirt and rock blow out at highway speed.
For a drop-off, tell us where you want the pile. A tarp or plywood under it saves the driveway, and a spot close to where you are working saves you a lot of wheelbarrow trips across the yard.
