Canter Construction is a specialist contractor
providing horse-safe maintenance
Unlike general contractors, Canter Construction specialises in horse yards. We provide services that include maintenance, groundwork and pest control with a true understanding of how horses live. Just one loose rail, blocked drain or hidden pest problem can put your horse at risk - we identify and provide a solution that you can trust — we prioritise protecting you, your yard and the animals you love.
Services
Stable and yard maintenance
Stable and yard repairs are critical safety elements on any equine yard, not cosmetic extras. Our work focuses on durability, correct materials, and timely repairs, with horse safety at the forefront of everything we do — both during the work and long after we leave. This reduces the risk of injury, escape, and liability, while helping owners demonstrate responsible, professional upkeep of their facilities
Custom builds
Custom builds on equine yards need to be safe, durable and defensible — not just well finished. We design and construct facilities with horse behaviour, daily use and long-term risk in mind. This assists yard owners avoid costly mistakes and ensure new structures stand up to real-world use and scrutiny.
Pest control
Pests do not just damage property — they create risks that can quickly turn into serious problems for yard owners. Our equine-specific pest control focuses on prevention and documentation, helping protect horses, people and the long-term operation of the yard.
Risk assessments and maintenance plans
It’s rarely the accident itself that puts a yard at risk of closure, it’s the legal and financial fallout when you can’t show that risks were properly managed beforehand. Canter Construction helps protect you with structured maintenance plans and clear risk assessments, giving you the evidence and support you need if things ever go wrong
Groundwork and drainage
Poor drainage and ground conditions create ongoing safety risks on equine yards; from slips and falls to structural damage and unusable areas. Our drainage and groundwork solutions focus on long-term function and durability; helping yard owners reduce risk, protect their infrastructure and keep facilities usable year-round.
