We know that frequently asked questions are frequently asked for good reason. Everyone has questions, especially about stretch tents! What are Stretch tents? How do they work? Are they warm? How long do they take to put up?

We’ve compiled a list of  frequently asked questions which we hope will provide all the information you need! Don’t worry about asking any question, we are here to help!

We love it when people ask us lots of questions. Why? Because we know that the more we sort out ahead of the event the better the client will feel and the smoother things will go.  A well informed client is a happy client and we love happy clients and after ten years …. we have many!

There is no such thing as a Stupid Question.  Don’t be embarrassed of your curiosity, everyone has questions, so this place gives you a safe space not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

If you have more questions then contact us via the contact form or give us a call on 07570 361 282.

If you don’t find the question you have in below our frequently asked question section then we would really love to hear from you.   We have been asked everything from ‘can you install a merry-go-round’ in a stretch tent? (The answer is yes by the way!) to… ‘can you rig a stretch tent over an ice rink? (Again the answer was yes …we can).

About your Location

We can set up a stretch tent on pretty much any surface. On grass, we use 1 metre long pegs, so there does need to be reasonable soil depth. I this isn’t possible, then we can use a water ballast system or wall fixings, so long as there are suitably strong walls.

This really depends on the size of the tent and if the space is complicated. We usually can set up within four hours and take down in an hour.  Larger tents take longer and if you want us to rig over obstacles or features we can do this but within reason! We can’t rig tents over 15m trees! If you want us to add lights and floors then this takes longer, but we can usually do everything in a day. Get in touch to discuss your specific requirements.

Certainly not! We work with clients as far away as Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. We’ve even set up beautiful spaces on Sark Island and Monte Carlo. We’re happy to travel to any location, and will always keep delivery costs to a minimum in the process.

It should not take long, usually taking a few hours to install. This can change depending on the size of the tent and the intricacies of the venue.

No, it does not. The tents are versatile and can be rigged on slopes and undulated ground. Bare in mind that large slopes will make flooring options more difficult.

Unfortunately, due to safety reasons, this isn’t possible. Our team are expertly trained to ensure your tent is set up both safely and efficiently, so leave it to us!

We absolutely can fix onto the building to make the tent work as an extension to the indoor space. We can also fix onto trees and other solid fixtures such as railings. So rather than be in the way, they can be useful to your event.
