Send us the parcel, the horses and the scope you want. We reply with the handful of questions a site walk would raise — pad location, access, water and power route, which permit track your county puts you on — and then a line-item proposal with a start window. No "starting at" number, no instant quote: a barn priced without the site is a barn priced twice.
What to send
The more of this you include, the fewer questions come back. The example briefs are templates you can copy.
What happens next
- We read the brief and look up the parcel — zoning district, floodplain, and the county's permit track from our county notes.
- We email back with questions, or, if the brief is complete, with a proposed site walk.
- After the walk you get a proposal with the shell, concrete, stalls and fit-out, sitework, utilities, engineering and permits each on its own line, marked included or excluded, with a payment schedule and a start window.
- You compare it to any other bid with the proposal checklist. We would rather lose a job to a bid that is actually lower than win one on a number that grows.
Before you fill it in
If you have not decided between a shell and a complete barn, or between a center aisle and a shed row, the planning guide settles most of it in twenty minutes and the cost guide shows what each choice does to the budget. You can also send the brief half-finished and let the questions do the rest.
