Horse Boxes

We also service and repair horseboxes and trailers at our Whitstable workshops. Unfortunately, due to their infrequent use we see quite a few vehicles and trailers in our body shop that need that little bit of TLC. This is mainly repairs to metalwork and chassis that have become rusty and unsafe due to long periods of standstill, often in the corner of a field. The other thing we see is rotten floors. Due to the nature of carrying horses the wooden floors that most boxes are often made from become rotten and unnoticed due to the rubber matting until the unthinkable happens and your treasured horse puts its foot through the floor or ramp leading to very expensive vet bills at best. We can inspect flooring and ramps and replace where necessary to keep you and your horse safe. Another common issue is brakes on trailers that will often get stuck after long periods of being parked up or callipers not working effectively making the trailer very dangerous with the added weight of a horse or two. We can strip, inspect and maintain these brakes at the beginning of the eventing calendar to give you full piece of mind when travelling around after a long standstill period. 

So, if your exhaust is sounding a little hoarse or those tyres are giving you nagging fears, get in touch today.
