Owning a horsebox is a vital part of horse care and transport. When you invest in coach built horseboxes from Cooke Coachbuilders, you’re choosing craftsmanship and reliability. But even the finest vehicles require regular upkeep to remain roadworthy, comfortable, and safe for both horse and rider.

At Cooke Coachbuilders, we understand that your horsebox is an essential part of your equestrian lifestyle. Whether you use it for regular shows, seasonal travel, or countryside outings, maintenance should never be overlooked. Like any well-used vehicle, wear and tear can creep in subtly, rubber matting can lose grip, ventilation systems may weaken, and hinges can begin to stiffen. These small issues, if left unattended, could compromise safety and performance.

That’s why consistent checks are key. Paying attention to flooring integrity, partition security, and roof vent functionality ensures your horse enjoys a stress-free journey. Equally, don’t underestimate the importance of keeping the engine and external bodywork in top form. Regular servicing helps prevent inconvenient breakdowns and costly repairs. Our team offers comprehensive servicing for all types of horseboxes, whether newly built or previously owned.

It’s also worth noting that DEFRA-approved features are standard in all our bespoke horseboxes, offering peace of mind through rigorous design and construction. Temperature control, night travel lighting, and stable interior fittings are just some of the features that benefit from routine inspection and upkeep.

As a leading name in coach built horseboxes, our dedication to quality doesn’t end once you drive off our premises. We’re here to support horse owners across the UK with expert repairs, bodyshop work, and long-term servicing options tailored to every model and usage style.
