FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What size tent do I need?

It really depends on the use of the tent. The rule of thumb is to plan for 10 sq. ft. per person, but if you need extra space for food service, bar area or dance floor then that has to be factored in as well. We can help you choose a size that will comfortably fit your needs and budget.

How much space do I need for the tent?

Our clearspan tents do not have any guy ropes, so we don’t need much more space than the tent itself will take up. For example, if the tent size is 50ft x 100ft, we can work in 52ft x 105ft of space and get it done. Let us know the space size you have to work with and we’ll find the perfect fit.

Does it matter what type of surface the tent is installed on?

Our tents can be installed on practically any surface, including grass, gravel, asphalt, decks, concrete, and more.

How far does your company travel?

We have been as far as California and most other states in the U.S., as well as several territories in Canada. We have also shipped product overseas, so if you have an event or need anywhere in the world we would be delighted to help however we can.

Do I need a tent permit?

In some cases you do. We can let you know if you require one and we will even obtain one for you, if you prefer.

Can your tents be installed without staking down?

Our structures are perfect in applications where staking is prohibited. We use 400 gallon water ballast or 5000-pound concrete ballast to hold down our larger structures and it is as safe as staking. For smaller structures, 33ft wide and smaller, we use 250-pound to 500-pound concrete ballast.
