horse box bodywork repair and refurbishment

Expert craftsmanship to keep you and your horses safe on the road.

At GAB Commercials, we understand that a horsebox is more than just a commercial vehicle—it’s a significant investment and a vital part of your equestrian lifestyle. Based in West Wellow, in the heart of the Hampshire countryside, we provide specialized bodywork repair and refurbishment services for everything from 3.5t pony boxes to large Oakley or Whittaker-style HGV horseboxes.

Comprehensive Care for Your Horsebox

Whether you’ve had a minor scrape at a show or require a full structural overhaul, our team provides meticulous attention to detail.

• Ramp Repairs & Tread Replacement: We ensure ramps are structurally sound, lightweight to operate, and fitted with high-grip rubber matting.

• Floor Inspections & Reinforcement: The most critical safety element. We inspect and repair aluminum and timber flooring to ensure total security for your horses.

• GRP & Panel Restoration: Specialist repair for fiberglass headers, wings, and side panels to keep your box looking showroom-fresh.

• Accident & Collision Damage: Full insurance-standard repairs for side-swipes, roof damage, and rear-end collisions.
