Price to replace a horse box floor?

[Gingerwitch]

Any ideas?? do they have to fetch the body off ?

Box or trailer? I know title says box but ud be surprised how many people call trailers boxes.

Box - 7.5 tonner..... i know the floor is fine but every winter i always go into panic mode and after reading the horrors on the other thread to do with horse box floors - thought i would like to see what the price would be for upgrading the existing floor.

OH does this for a living, he thinks ballpark figure without looking about a grand for the whole floor, but say if it has living and a seperate back bit for the horses and it was just that part about 600.

Thank you for that- yes we do have seperate horse and living - and i dont give a monkey about the living...but when it comes to my horses.... well enough said

I paid £1200 to have a new double alloy floor and new top for my tack locker this summer.

Just to add floor was for horse area only they are usually marine ply in the living.

Goldenstar.... think that is what i want to do.... a double alloy floor - i dont even care if that goes over the top of what is already there - could you pm me where yours was done - and did it take long.

Mine may already be alumini - but i do not know - and i am in no fit state to find out

thank you

It was done by KP horse boxes near Sunderland the price was inclusive of rebuilding the top of the tack lockers to provide a sleep slide of top for the cob who enjoyed standing on them so cant break it down I think it was away four days but not sure how much time it actually took.
You need to get some one to get a mat up for a good look , and make sure they put enough holes right through to get the pee washing out water away put not over anything it's going to pour onto and ruin.
