Equestrian Facility Construction

Equestrian Facility Construction

When it comes to building for horses, you need a team that understands the land, the animals, and the country way of doing things. At Blackrock Earthworks, we specialise in designing and constructing top-quality equestrian facilities for private horse owners, commercial centres, and event venues right across NSW—including Hawkesbury, Greater Sydney, and beyond. If you need us, we’ll travel.

From the first site scrape to the last fence post, we handle the whole job—so you don’t have to juggle multiple contractors. We take care of earthworks, site prep, arena construction, stable foundations, drainage, fencing, gates, horse shelters, and even plumbing. You can count on us for a finished facility that’s safe, practical, and built to last.

What is Equestrian Facility Construction?

Equestrian facility construction covers everything needed for the care, training, and performance of horses—think arenas, stables, paddocks, round yards, fencing, and shelters. At Blackrock Earthworks, we manage every stage: excavation, grading, land preparation, and construction, ensuring your setup is functional, safe, and looks the part.

Why Use Arena Sand?

The right arena sand is key for your horse’s comfort and performance. We use quality sand blends that provide a stable, cushioned surface—minimising stress on joints, improving grip, and keeping dust down. Good footing means safer, happier horses and better rides.

Our Equestrian Facility Construction Services

Custom Arena Construction

Whether it’s dressage, show jumping, or reining, we build arenas to suit your discipline. Our sandstone-based arenas are topped with premium arena sand and finished with drainage systems for all-weather performance. We laser grade every surface for perfect levels and can customise the size, surface, and surrounds to your needs.

Stable Site Preparation

A quality stable starts with the right base. We handle grading, drainage, and soil management to create a solid, safe foundation for your stables, horse wash bays, or shelters—so your horses stay comfortable and dry.

Paddocks & Round Yards

We design and build practical, secure paddocks and round yards for turnout, training, or breeding. Our team ensures good drainage, safe fencing, and proper soil management for healthy horses and easy maintenance.

Equestrian Fencing, Gates & Horse Shelters

Keep your horses safe with durable fencing, reliable gates, and sturdy shelters. We offer a range of fencing options—timber post-and-rail, steel, or custom styles—plus horse shelters that give your animals protection from the elements.

Arena Base Preparation & Drainage Solutions

A great arena starts below the surface. We provide expert laser grading, compaction, and drainage installation to ensure your arena performs in all conditions. We use only the best materials and can help with ongoing maintenance and support if needed.
