Horse Arena

Horse Arena Base

Footing conditions

 

Now that I’ve spent the better part of the summer here in Grants Pass, I’ve seen many horse arenas built and/or resurfaced.  After speaking with individuals with different riding demands such as, reining, dressage, cow work, jumping… etc, I found there are different required depths to the arena base, as well as different surface material.  The entry “horse arena price outline” gives an overview of some of the products we provide, amounts that may be needed for your arena, and the approximate prices.

If there is any information that you have that can make this more accurate or would like to share your experiences with arenas, please post them.  Also If there is any products we can provide that we are lacking please let us know.

Did You Know…

If bark is purchased in bags at major chain stores the price per yard can exceed $54. At landscape supply stores, such as Copeland Landscape Supply in Grants Pass, a yard of the same bark is only $25. The bark nuggets sold at other stores is about $58 a yard, where it’s only $34 here. Don’t need a full yard, not a problem we can load any amount you need. Really like bark in bags? we have that too, $4.50-$5.00 each.
