Dry Lots For Livestock
Lime screenings or sand footing installation for cleaner, stronger livestock ground
We install durable dry lot footing designed to create clean, well-drained ground for livestock. Our work supports horses, cattle, goats, and other animals — improving usability and reducing mud all year long.
Serving farms within a 25-mile radius of Cleveland, MO — including Louisburg, KS, Spring Hill, KS, Stilwell, KS, and Belton, MO — we focus on practical footing solutions that make livestock management easier and more efficient across the Cass Co., MO and Johnson & Miami Co., KS region.
What is a Dry Lot?
A dry lot is a controlled livestock area built to stay dry, stable, and usable year-round. It protects pastures from overuse, improves animal footing, supports hoof health, and prevents erosion and mud buildup.
Dry lots are commonly used for:
horse paddocks
feeding and watering areas
confinement or turnout spaces
winter livestock areas
Our Dry Lot Footing Work
We install lime screenings or sand — depending on livestock type, ground conditions, and drainage goals.
Our work includes:
site prep

shaping and drainage planning
This creates firmer, cleaner ground that holds up under daily use.

"Travis is amazing! He was timely, patient, and professional. Our property was heavily polluted with glass, metal, and debris by the prior owner. This left us with a number of health hazards for our horses.
Travis came out, dug up to 2 feet deep in some areas and excavated all the trouble spots. He hauled it off and back filled with a rock dust to form a dry lot around our barn, this has been a game changer. What was once a muddy bog is now a stable and quick drying area, a huge help to our horses feet!!
While he was here we had him add an extension to our driveway and a walkway to the barn all with road base. He works quick, he is masterful in his craft, and he is a joy to work with! 10/10 recommend"
