Our story

At The HorseBox HandyMan, we know how much the safety and comfort of your horses mean to you – and we’re here to ensure that when you are travelling, your horsebox and trailer are safe, reliable and secure.

With years of hands-on experience, we started our journey as a mobile repairs business, and now have our own yard and workshop offering full refurbishments and custom modifications – all delivered with care and expert craftsmanship. Whether it’s fixing flooring, electrics, fittings, or structural issues, we come to you, ensuring your equestrian equipment is in top shape.

Based in Warwickshire, we’re passionate about what we do because we understand the bond between you and your horses.

Need a repair? Just give us a call – we’re always happy to help!

On-road safety

Government data for 2024 showed an increase in brake system failures among trailers and horseboxes during initial and final MOT checks. Our maintenance packages deliver comprehensive checks on your wheels and brakes ensuring the roadworthiness of your vehicles and the safety of you, your passengers and your horses.

Sustainability

We’re committed to doing our part for the planet. From sourcing products from sustainable suppliers to disposing of waste responsibly, Horsebox Handyman strives to minimise our environmental impact. Together, we can keep you on the road while caring for our earth.

Really pleased with the service and standard delivered by Barrington. Will not be using anyone else moving forward. Highly recommend!

I gave up the drudgery of corporate life in packaging for the wholesome bucolic smells of stable yards and horse boxes. When I'm not fixing other people's mechanical maladies, you'll find me under the hood of my tastefully coloured Land Rover Defender 110 G4.

When not building stage and sound sets in theatres around the UK and Europe, I lend my not-inconsiderable skills to the cause of The Horsebox Handyman.
