cost of shoeing

[skydancer]

i have recently moved my horse to a new yard and found out the farrier there only charges £65 for a full set of shoes whereas my previous farrier charged £85. Just wondered how much everybody else pays?

Only £65????!!!

I pay £65 for a new set, £55 for a refit. £20 for a trim without shoeing.

 

[Elsbells]

£55, full set and he's a remedial farrier too, although thankfully she's not had to use that service!

£85?? Holy mother of....

I pay £64 a set including road nails, and £25 to trim my barefoot Newfie.

 

[StormyMoments]

i pay £65... i used to have a farrier about a year ago who charged £110 :O and it wasnt even that good and i couldnt afford £220 for 2 horses that would be rediculus!

 

[only_me]

£55 for full set with stud holes
hot shod as standard

 

[Ally_F]

£68 for a full new set, although I do know a few people who pay £72.

 

[SavingGrace]

£70 for full set of shoes for me!

 

[StableMum]

£80 full set, £1.25 each for road nails, £1 for each stud hole, so just paid £93. Excellent farrier though so wouldn't change.

 

[LadyRascasse]

£75 for a set for me, but even if they were £100 a set i wouldn't use a different farrier!!

 

[GingerCat]

£60 for a new set, £50 for 'removes', £40 for front 'heartbars', £20 for a trim

 

[cm2581]

My horses aren't shod at the moment but the farrier that trims them (£20 for trim) is £75 a set. There are farriers in the area that charge £85 and some that charge £60. The £60 guy I know of is SHOCKING! He really shouldn't be allowed to shoe horses. But enough people are clueless or don't care for him to have plenty work.

 

[indie999]

£50 full new set and £20 for a trim now!! Brilliant farrier. Sister pays £60 with another.

Mind you bacon sandwiches etc provided too!!!

 

[Ellies_mum2]

I pay £55 a set of shoes and £15 for a trim


Only draw back is he charges same for re-fits as a new set

 

[Kaylum]

£75 for mine but he made them, he refuses to use the ones you can buy which means he has to make them the night before which is quite a lot of his time.

 

[tinap]

£50 for a refit £55 for full new set with road nails, £1 per stud hole if needed. Not gone up for a few years because there are so many farriers round here I think!

 

[I See Clover]

£70 for full set of shoes for me!

Ditto!

[jules9203]

I've just paid £165.00 for two sets of shoes, one set with 4 stud holes and two road nails (inc VAT)A basic set is £65 + vat. I too have a brilliant farrier and wouldn't change. There are far more expensive ones in Hampshire!

 

[Charlie007]

I used to pay £57.57 but vet recommend he has heart bar shoes on the hinds so now £88!!

 

[Moggy in Manolos]

I pay £45 for front shoes and a trim on the backs

 

[Gorgeous George]

I pay £69 for a full set with road nails (£1 extra per shoe if you need stud holes)

 

[Snowysadude]

£140 a set now but he is in bar shoes in front with gel in ! Normal behind! Normal set is £70 and thats pretty normal, every farrier apart from 2 I know around here (I know a lot) charge that

 

[JessPickle]

£115 for 2 horses all round
