NORTHERNERS - how much does yr farrier charge?

[andreaB]

question in the title , mine is just about to put his prices up , so wondering whats the going rate in the north these days?

price for a full set of shoes , removing , trimming & new shoes fitted ( please to keep it comparative use this as opposed to the price for refits or if you have stud holes etc)

if i haven't got your exact price please just choose the nearest

thankyou!

Going to be £60 for a full set of standard shoes with J.W next month, I'm not sure if that includes road nails.

 

[bexj]

£57 inc road nails. That's Simon Wolfenden - don't know if he covers your area or not..

 

[Bertie]

I pay £60 and that is with or without road nails - not sure if stud holes are extra as never asked for them.

 

[*Sez*]

The last time I had a full set done (he's barefoot now) it was £50 plus £4 for road nails. Not sure if his prices have gone up a little bit since then, but nothing has been mentioned.

Ours cost about £200 for the 3 of them, but that does include pads for one. The only drawback is that we have to take them to him. The Farrier is brilliant though - shoes are hand made for them from metal bars rather than just preformed ones being put on. We won the best shod horse championship at Leicester County show last year

 

[Kat n indi xx]

ours charges £55 or £60 with studs he is brill

 

[xloopylozzax]

£50 including road nails and studs/stud holes if we want them.

hes brill though, cant fault him he does a good job, is on time and is nice to chat to (and look at!)

 

[Trewsers]

£85 for a full set.

[lauraandharvey]

[Lesleymc]

I live in Newcastle and I pay £60 for a full set and £70 with stud holes

 

[chaospony]

My guy is barefoot, and I pay £15 for a trim. Last time I had a horse shod it was £50 for a set of 4 with road nails.

 

[MrsCarter]

£68.00 for Elouise for a full set but she does have remedial work done.
£25.00 for a trim for Honey so I'm probably changing farriers for her!!

I can't fault my farrier though. He's always on time, returns my calls and is fantastic with my girls. I'll keep him for Elouise but I just cannot justify £25.00 for a trim on the pony!!!!

[shanzee]

£65 including road studs and road nails for Tia - £20 more for allys for big shows.

£55 for Mr T.

Fab farrier - comes out straight away if we lose a shoe - he even came out on Bank Holiday Mon at 7am because we were showing.

 

[ANN H]

£55 for a full set, £30 for a trim and front shoes, £15 for a trim.

 

[kturner]

Barefoot £15 every 7 weeks.

Just got Cavello front hoof boots for the road for the dropped soles so I can stay barefoot then a lot wears down naturally and farrier only rasps quite often as there is not much to cut.

 

[Mimi + Me]

Looks like there's not a huge difference between North and South then, I'm quite surprised as I thought it would be quite a lot cheaper oop North

 

[MissBoo]

£50 for a full set for Smokey - although to be honest I thought he'd cost more as his feet are massive!

 

[anna15]

£40 for a full set, including road nails
