Trailer repairs and modifications
We repair, strengthen and modify trailers of all sizes, from box trailers and car trailers up to farm and tipper bodies. Cracked welds, worn mounts, damaged rails and chassis repairs.
Most trailer work can be done where the trailer is, and the bigger jobs come back to the workshop. We weld steel, stainless and aluminium, so an alloy body is not a problem.

Questions about Trailer Repairs
Can you weld a cracked trailer drawbar?
Often, yes. We grind out the crack, weld it right through and usually add a plate so it's stronger than before. If the steel's gone thin from rust, a new section is safer. Don't keep towing on it.
Can you fix a rusted trailer?
Usually, yes. If the chassis and drawbar are sound, fixing it is much cheaper than a new trailer. Rusted floors, sides and guards are easy fixes. Rust in the frame matters more, so we check it, inside the box section too.
Can you weld a galvanised or aluminium trailer?
Yes, both. On galvanised steel we grind the coating off, weld it, then coat it again so it won't rust. Aluminium gets cleaned back to bare metal first, then welded with gear made for alloy.
Can you extend a trailer drawbar?
Yes. Extending a drawbar is a common job for us. So are cages and toolboxes. A change to the length or what the trailer can carry may need checking with the Department of Transport first.
