What We Do
Dirt Work Built By Horsemen. Built For Horsemen.
From new arena construction to footing restoration and monthly upkeep, every service is built around one goal: a safe, consistent riding surface.
Arena Grading & Build-Out
We build new arenas from the ground up — laser-leveled base, proper slope for drainage, and compaction that's engineered for consistent footing from day one.
- Laser-level grading
- Base compaction
- Drainage & slope correction
- Custom footing depth
Footing Renovation & Resurfacing
Worn, rutted, or uneven footing gets fully reworked — we correct low spots, re-establish proper drainage, and recondition the riding surface so it rides like new again.
- Rut & low-spot correction
- Footing reconditioning
- Drainage re-grading
- Surface leveling
Monthly Maintenance Programs
Recurring dragging, spot grading, and re-leveling that keep your arena consistent and ready to ride, every single day — not just after a full renovation.
- Weekly or bi-weekly drag
- Spot grading high-traffic areas
- Minor re-leveling
- Priority scheduling available
Site Grading & Material Hauling
Beyond arenas, we handle general dirt work for equestrian properties — pad grading, drainage correction, and hauling of imported material where needed.
- Cut & fill grading
- Material hauling
- Drainage solutions
- Site prep for structures
How A Project Runs
From First Call To Finished Surface
Site Walk & Assessment
We walk the arena with you, check drainage and footing depth, and talk through goals and budget.
Laser Grading & Leveling
Precision equipment corrects the base and sets the proper slope for safe, even drainage.
Footing & Compaction
We condition and compact the riding surface for consistent traction and cushioning.
Ongoing Upkeep
Scheduled visits keep the arena level and rideable long after the project wraps.
