**★★★★★ — laurelee777, Nov. 2014**

> This is a highly skilled group of construction minds. I am an Equestrian Facility Designer and through my sixteen years of running my own business by far this construction company is the most professional I have ever worked with. I will look forward to doing many more projects with them. Highly recommended!

**★★★★ — msjdu favored, July 2014**

> Been very informative each and every time i have questions and considering them for a future build.  Looking for a lot and will build soon.

**★★★★★ — msohmstede, March 2014**

> Our experience from start to finish was outstanding! Our process started with conversations with Dustin & Brett. They were very knowledgeable & skilled at turning our thoughts into a design. Josh took over management of our project & was instrumental in helping us complete the barn/residence of our dreams. The framing (and then some) was led by Cole and his crew. Some of the custom touches they built are one of a kind. Across the board everyone at DC Building has a 'can do' attitude...there is nothing you can imagine that they can't find a way to do. Probably the most impressive thing about DC Building is their professionalism & their work ethic. After a 9 month project we felt they were a part of the family...how many projects can you say that about!?

**★★★★★ — majela1, March 2014**

> Terrell and team did a great job with our shop.  Quality and workmanship was excellent and Terrell was a great partner throughout the design, permitting and build.  I'd recommend DC Builders to anyone without hestitation.

## Community Q&A

**Q: How much does an enclosed riding shed cost?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Also how high is the ceiling and the dimensions?

A: The cost for covered riding arenas vary because they are completely customizable. To give you some perspective, our base model arena kit starts at $79,975 which only includes the arena, no horse stalls or tack room. 
This specific project cost around $360,000 but has six custom horse stalls, one custom wash rack and a 12' x 24' tack room along with a 600 sq. ft. caretaker's apartment. The ceiling of the arena is 16'. For more information on our arena kits you can visit our site: http://www.dcstructures.com/kits/arenas/
