“I love the natural light. With our savings on electricity, I see it paying for itself in 10 years. I love everything, it’s so big, bright and airy with no dust. The horses love how open it is! Everyone at WeCover was so helpful to work with and made the process go so well.”

“We love it! We love the atmosphere, acoustics, openness and environment of the building. It’s a nice climate for riding since it’s 10 degrees cooler in the summer and 10 degrees warmer in the winter. The WeCover is a quiet and peaceful place to ride. The roof sheds the snow nicely. Not more than 3-4 inches build-up on the roof before it slides off.

The delivery and construction process was on time. The construction crew was absolutely awesome. I would highly recommend them.”

“I think we’re going to be very happy with our new building and I thank you for making the process go so smoothly. Everyone involved in our project was great and it was a pleasure doing business with you.

The building crew was super friendly and professional throughout, despite some pretty adverse work conditions. I’m just sorry I didn’t get a chance to thank them personally and to say goodbye.”

“It’s beautiful light, even on the darkest gloomiest days. This is the #1 reason we love our WeCover. One place that we wasted money was putting the lights in because we never use them.

Even though quite a few facilities in the area had snow damage, our arena shed snow really well this past winter, even on the heavy wet snowfalls that were followed by cloudy extremely cold days.”

“We really like the brightness of the fabric roof of our WeCover and the wood used in the ends and side walls. We love the space and openness of it all! We like that our WeCover has a customized pitched roof. We find that the temperature in our WeCover is still cooler in the summer than it is outside. We were happy with the workmanship and how the construction was done in the estimated time frame.”

“I am so glad we discovered WeCover before we invested in a traditional steel-roofed arena. With WeCover, the natural light is beautiful. Even the structure itself is beautiful, clean, light and elegant. In the summer, it’s so much cooler and even on dark, rainy days it stays so bright we don’t need to turn on lights. Everyone who rides or teaches here loves it. We’ve hear a lot of comments like “It’s like riding in an open air cathedral” and “This is a magnificent arena – the lighting is fabulous.”

“We rode in the arena for the first time today. It was delightful! Despite noon heat, it felt shaded and airy, exactly as we had hoped. It is delightfully bright inside, particularly with the light-colored footing we put in. The curtain design looks great.

All of your workers are top-notch. Everyone, from the concrete guys to the builders to the curtain guys, is well-spoken, courteous, and hard-working. The building is gorgeous, even more so than we had imagined. The natural wood is so beautiful we will probably keep it rather than painting it. We are going to have some great times in there. Thank you for helping our dream come true.”

“We really love the look of our WeCover arena, the A-frame design with white roof, it looks so white and bright. One of the biggest benefits for us is that with the environment in our WeCover arena, it allows us to ride comfortably and do lessons all winter long. Our footing was amazingly well preserved all winter, we kept the sides open and the horses are very happy in the environment.”

“We’ve had our WeCover for two years now and we love the how quiet the fabric roof is, even with heavy rain or hail, it’s only a soft tapping. We appreciate the soft, even lighting through the fabric roof, it’s far better than artificial lighting and our horses never get spooked by shadows. We enjoy the openness of the structure, allowing a connection with the outdoor environment and having the advantages of both indoor and outdoor conditions. The cost of our WeCover was considerably less than the fixed indoor arena structure that we might have built.”

“We built our WeCover arena two years ago and have had the benefit of two winters in it. My daughter has a business called Narnia Stables and she uses the WeCover to train horses. Thanks to the natural light and comfortable environment of our WeCover, she can now work with horses all year round. In the Summer, the side panels are removed so that the air and light can enter the building. During the Winter, these panels are in place to keep out the wind and the cold. The white fabric roof means that the building is light all year round, and is one of the most attractive parts of the overall design. We are extremely happy with our WeCover and we feel it is a tremendous asset to Paradise Farm.”

“We have 6 months of cold winter here and very hot summers. I wanted a spacious building that allowed the light in while keeping the cold out in the winter but still kept cool in the summer. The sliding doors and shutters on our WeCover arena allow the natural air flow when open, but can be closed to protect against the strong winds blowing down from the mountain.”

“When we visited a few WeCover dairy barns, we knew we wanted one to replace our old tie-stall barn. The #1 reason we wanted the WeCover was the natural light and comfortable environment. That is still the feature we love the most. The cows from the tie-stall barn adjusted well to the freestalls in the WeCover. The fresh cows are peaking higher in the light environment than they did in the old barn. We chose the premium option - a WeCover Structure dairy barn for our registered Holstein herd. The cows love it! And so do we.”

The main reason we chose a WeCover for our heifer facility was the natural light. This is still our favorite feature of the heifer barn. The structure went together very quickly. We were impressed with the timely construction process. We like the environment in the WeCover, in both summer and winter. We also have WeCover building us a Ridgeline hay storage facility later this year.

“In the past 14 months we have built 3 structures from WeCover. We are very happy with the structures and the working relationship we have had with WeCover and their crews!

The light and ventilation have proven to be a great benefit to us! We have definitely seen an increase in growth with our heifers. We are so happy with the WeCover structure that it makes us dissatisfied with our older structures. We feel there is less disease potential with the WeCover structures over conventional wood structures.”

“We decided to go with WeCover because of the bright environment. This past winter was one of the coldest and snowiest I’ve ever seen in our area. With our WeCover, the snow slid off the roof by itself, we didn’t need to shovel it like our other buildings. And since it was nice and bright inside, this made the winter more tolerable. We really like the natural light and the unobstructed design of our WeCover.”

“We love our WeCover. It provides lots of natural light. We always get positive comments from visitors and sales people. I like that I can close up the top of the side walls and the overshot peak in the winter to control the temperature.”

“We are very pleased with our WeCover structures! We have put up a total of 7 structures in the last 5 years and have plans for another one before spring.

We are very happy with WeCover and their crews. Some of the features we like about these structures would be the durability, light, ventilation and the coolness in the summer heat. In our WeCover barn during the hot summer it was up to 8 degrees cooler than it was in our conventional barn! This has resulted in excellent comfort, health and production for our cows.”

“We are delighted with our WeCover barn. In 2006 we built a 120' x 144' and in 2008 we added 156' making it a 120' x 300'. The quality of the barn is superior. We love the ventilation and the natural lighting.

Our facility is a combination of free stalls and bedded pack. With the bedded pack and the ventilation and light we have maintained a cull rate of 10% for 2.5 years. When low milk prices hit in 2009 we culled hard and our cull rate rose to 15%. We would do it again in a heartbeat!”

“The number one reason we chose WeCover for our dairy building was the natural light and ventilation. Our WeCover is also a very sturdy building. We find it very enjoyable to work in the WeCover. With the fresh air, the cows are happy and content. They are lying down most of the time.”

“The natural light is number one feature of our WeCover. The high air quality results in healthier cows than in our older facility. We have been in the WeCover for 4 years and we love it!”

“We installed our first robotic milking system in our WeCover 10 years ago and added a second robot last year. We keep our robots in an insulated, heated room, this works very well. We love the wide open space that the freespan provides and also the natural light from the fabric roof.”

“We have been operating our WeCover robot dairy barn for almost 6 years and it’s been working very well. We have installed a good heating system in the robot room. The ventilation is very good with lots of fresh air, I am very satisfied with the health of the herd. I would definitely choose WeCover again for a robot dairy barn.”

“We have had cattle in our WeCover barn for over three years now and the health of our heifers and dry cows is 10 times better than those which we housed in an open front barn. The full side curtains may make for a colder barn in the winter, but the cattle thrive all year round. In our WeCover, we reduced our age at first breeding by months in the first year. If I could change anything, I wish I went bigger with this barn. The excellent growth rate of our heifers made this barn too small in less than a year.”

“We’ve been in our WeCover barn for 3 years now and it’s the best cattle housing we could imagine, even in the winter. Our heard health is excellent and we would definitely choose WeCover for another barn. I only wish we installed a roll up curtain on the south gable end to let in more sun.”

“We built our first WeCover barn in Freeville 7 years ago. Last year we built another WeCover in Groton. The WeCover barns have lots of light and ventilation. They provide a great working environment. With our WeCover barns, our herd health is excellent. We installed fans to make sure the air moves through the entire barn. We would definitely build another barn with WeCover.”

“We built our WeCover in summer 2015. Initially, we were interested in WeCover because it is a cost effective option and we also liked the flexibility to choose a fabric roof or insulated steel roof option. We haven’t been in our WeCover for a summer yet, but we anticipate a great working environment due to the overshot fabric roof. We were very happy working with everyone at WeCover.”

“After we built our first two WeCover buildings, we knew we would use WeCover for our robot barn and heifer barn. The main benefit for us is the tremendous amount of natural light we experience for our cows. Anyone that has been in our barn has said they haven’t seen another environment like it.”

“I am well satisfied with our WeCover robot dairy barn that we put up 3 years ago. The herd has increased to 50 cows and they are producing very well. The natural light environment of the WeCover is just what I wanted.”

“By working closely with WeCover, we can create a controlled environment that offers light and fresh air, two important ingredients for the success of our new robotic milking operation. WeCover has been very positive to work with on all the specific requirements for our barn. This project is a game-changer for Prairie’s Edge Dairy.”

“In our WeCover, we have experienced no scours and no calf loss. Our nutritionist is impressed with our calves’ growth rate. They are doing better in our WeCover with natural ventilation than they were doing in calf hutches.”

“In the WeCover, our cattle are more comfortable both in the summer and winter than they were in our old style facility. The WeCover has a better environment with natural light and better air flow. This contributes to better health in our beef cattle and lower cost of gain.”

“The fabric roof of the WeCover building allows 15% of the natural sunlight through. This is my number one benefit. Also, the straight roof line and properly sized overshot ventilation system will give the barn better air flow as opposed to that of a traditional beef facility. It’s amazing how well the building went up. It’s a well-designed and efficient system that will give me many years of service. WeCover worked well with all the subcontractors to make sure the whole job came together smoothly.”

“The cattle are very content in our new WeCover barn. We attribute this to the natural light provided by the fabric roof. The result is an increase in the performance of the cattle. We chose WeCover over other structures because of its durability, ease of maintenance and their customer service.”

“Our WeCover Structures barn provides a great environment for working with and housing beef cattle. Good air flow, natural lighting and protection from extreme weather conditions (both in summer and winter) all contribute to a better cost of gain. We were so happy with our first barn that we have expanded 4 times since with WeCover.”

“The reason I chose Ridgeline for my shop was the extra clearance I get with the vaulted truss system. I wanted a steel building that could be lined easily, and this was the best building for that. The other steel buildings are so hard to line. The Ridgeline gives me the flexibility and opportunity to finish the building how I want.”

“We like the WeCover because of the vaulted truss, which provides lots of clearance for our equipment. The natural light is a real bonus. The structure was professionally built, with nice detail. The environment this summer in our WeCover was cooler than in our insulated shop on the same property. If we had to do it over again, we would have gone wider.”
