I ask because I have always paid about £25 all in. My saddler has moved and I have found a new fitter, she charges £60. It is a Wow so there are fewer fitters but I was just wondering what the average price is?
Thanks

Just had my saddler out yesterday for 2 horses. one saddle fitted on a new horse but no changes needed - excellent fit! and the other saddle just needed adjusting slightly. £50 for the pair, and the guy had to travel. Thought it was pretty good. xXx
 
£100

A wow fitter!!!! But she comes out of her area and it is half a day! Plus it is not just yearly but every 4-6 months! I could get a wow fitter a bit cheaper but i am pleased with the one i use whereas the cheaper one was not as good IMO so worth paying a bit more.
 
Don't pay a bean unless she comes out to me, take the horses to her and she checks fit for free, it's a good long check as well including watching both ponies in all 3 paces and over jumps in her arena........
 
TBH I dont have mine checked yearly which I know is bad, but my saddler left the country 3 years ago and there arent any saddlers who come out anymore. Id have to take each horse to one, and there's only one I know of in my area who I dont like! We need more saddlers!! I really want a SJ saddle to replace my GP one as well but dont trust myself to fit it myself.
