Trailer repairs in Hull, done where the trailer stands
A cracked chassis, split bucket or broken A-frame stops the work that depends on it. For trailer repairs in Hull and the East Riding, we bring self-powered rigs and repair the item in place. If the workshop suits better, we bring it in.
Galvanised steel is ground back, welded and re-protected. We assess cast parts before we quote. If the original is beyond repair, we measure it and manufacture a new one.

Trailer & plant repairs questions
Not covered here? Call or WhatsApp and ask.
Can you weld a galvanised trailer chassis?
Yes. We grind the zinc back from the joint, weld the repair, then cold-galvanise or re-coat the area.
Do you come to the farm or yard?
Yes, across Hull and the East Riding. The rigs are self-powered, so a field or a yard without mains is fine.
How soon can you attend?
We agree a date when we price the job. Account customers on our emergency call-out service get priority.
Can you repair a cracked cast bucket or housing?
Usually. Cast steel welds well. Cast iron depends on the part and where the crack runs. Send a photo.
Do you do car sills, exhausts or MOT welding?
No. We work on trailers, plant, agricultural and industrial equipment only.
The original part is scrap. Can you manufacture a new one?
Yes. We measure or scan it, draw it in CAD and manufacture a replacement.
