Horse Barn Builders in Eaton, CO

Yes. Eaton is about 5 miles south of our base in Ault, in Weld County, one of the three counties we build in. We build horse barns, loafing sheds and riding arenas there, and the quote is free.

Usually. When one is needed, we pull it from the Eaton or Weld County building department, depending on which side of the town limits the property is on with engineered plans and build to whatever the permit and inspections require.

Often, but not always. Some counties exempt qualifying agricultural buildings from a building permit, and whether a barn qualifies depends on the parcel and how it is used. Larimer County's foothills also fall in a wildfire hazard area with its own construction rules, which a metal roof and siding suit well. We check what applies to your parcel in Larimer, Weld or Adams County and pull the permit when one is needed.

Size them to your horses and your equipment. A 12-by-12 stall suits most average-size horses, while draft horses, foaling mares and stallions need more room. Aisles should be wide enough to lead and turn a horse safely, and wider if you clean stalls with a tractor or cart. We settle stall and aisle sizes with you before anything is drawn.

Yes. We build loafing sheds and run-ins for pasture horses, open-sided covered arenas and fully enclosed indoor riding arenas on a clear-span post frame. For an arena we level and compact the base under your footing and set the eave height for riding, with windows and ventilation along the walls.

Stall count, the size and height of the building and the level of interior finish set most of it. A loafing shed or run-in is a much smaller job than a center-aisle stable with tack and feed rooms and insulation, and an indoor arena is a bigger project again. Grading and the snow and wind loads at your property matter too. Fill out the form or call, and a local builder gets back to you with pricing.
