Expert Foundation Preparation in Salt Lake County, UT

Foundation preparation sets the base for every structure built in Duchesne County. Done right, it prevents settling, cracking, and moisture problems before they start. Duchesne County's varied soil conditions range from clay-heavy ground to loose fill, and frost depths in much of the county require footings placed well below grade to avoid frost heave. Our team assesses each site, removes unsuitable material, grades and compacts the subgrade, and confirms proper slope away from the structure. We work on residential builds, additions, and outbuildings across the county. Every step follows the International Residential Code as adopted and amended by Utah and Duchesne County. Skipping or rushing this stage leads to costly structural repairs later. If you are planning a new build or addition in Duchesne County, contact Upfront Radon to schedule a site assessment and get the groundwork done correctly from the start.

So far the process went well. Jed came over and investigated the house to determine where to install the system. He came right back and the system was installed in less than a day. It looks great, but we’ll see how well it functions where we do another radon test.

Jed did a fantastic job! His attention to detail, color matching the pipes to the house, installation, sealing everything up, and cleanup was great. I got several bids and the price was very competitive, but above that, Jed's knowledge showed through with the questions and comments made before work began. I would easily recommend UpFront Radon LLC over others.

Jed and Kyle were great to work with. We appreciate the smaller business handling of everything. They did a great job with communication and the install. Install was less than 4 hours. I appreciated that they came to the house before the install day to look around and offer options of how they think would be best to do the work. There was no pressure, just suggestions and a quote of what it would take. Price was in line with other quotes I got with larger companies (one Utah company and one national company). Quality of the work seems good so far. We did a 'chase' install with the fan in the attic. The fan is a bit louder than I was hoping for, but I think we'll adjust to it quickly and it will likely just be background noise. UPDATE: Jed and Kyle both responded to my review and came back out to look at the fan. There was actually something that was wrong with the fan causing it to be louder. So they replaced it and the noise is barely even noticable now. Great customer service and they stand by their work.

Jed and Kyle did an amazing job on our mitigation system. Thoughtfully designed and beautifully implemented. We are very pleased with how the end result looks. We sincerely recommend UpFront and will recommend them to our neighbors and friends.

Brett Nelson Google review · May 2026

I had a great experience with Upfront Radon! From the initial consultation to the installation, everything was fast, efficient, and professional. The installation was clean, well done, and competitively priced. Kyle and Jed did an outstanding job. They were friendly, respectful of our home, and made sure everything was left spotless when they finished. The owner was also incredibly knowledgeable, took the time to answer all of my questions, and clearly knows his stuff. If you’re looking for a radon mitigation company that’s honest, informative, and does quality work at a fair price, I highly recommend Upfront Radon. Thanks again to Kyle and Jed for taking such great care of us!
