Performance Footing provides clients all around the world with consistent, high-quality products that need professional installation. It begins with our stellar in-house consulting team, custom project planning, and virtual management tools — but ends with the support of a quality builder to assist in layout, construction, and installation.
That's why we've assembled the Performance Footing Builder Network — a group of vetted contractors, landscape professionals, excavators, and arena experts from across the globe with the skills and experience to build arenas that perform.
When our clients need an experienced contractor for their project, we connect them with a qualified builder from our network. If you're a construction professional interested in becoming a preferred contractor, we want to hear from you.

FAQ
Common Questions
Who can join the Performance Footing Builder Network?+
We welcome contractors, landscape professionals, excavators, and arena construction specialists with experience in grading, base preparation, and surface installation. You don't need to be an equestrian specialist — we provide the footing knowledge. You bring the construction skills.
Is there a cost to join the builder network?+
No. There is no fee to apply or to be part of the network. We invest in our builders because quality installation is critical to our clients' success — and ours.
What regions do you need builders in?+
We need qualified builders across the United States, Canada, Europe, the Middle East, Oceania, and South America. If you're in a region where we have clients, we want to hear from you.
How do you match builders with projects?+
We match based on geographic proximity, project scope, builder availability, and specific skills required. Large-scale show facility builds may require different capabilities than a private backyard arena.
What kind of projects will I work on?+
Projects range from private backyard arenas and boarding facility upgrades to show venue construction and institutional builds. Scope includes base preparation, drainage, footing installation, and sometimes full arena construction from the ground up.
Do I need equestrian experience?+
No. Many of our best builders come from general excavation, landscape construction, or grading backgrounds. We provide complete footing specifications and installation guidance — you provide the construction expertise.
