Why Is Regular Trailer Servicing Important?
Regular trailer servicing is key for safety and performance at all times. When you keep up with maintenance, it reduces the risk of breakdowns and ensures your trailer stays in top condition. Also, regular checks help identify wear and tear early on, preventing small issues from turning into costly repairs.
Routine servicing keeps your trailer compliant with road safety regulations. Besides, properly maintained trailers are much easier to tow, can carry loads more securely and their components last longer. It’s advisable to maintain a record of service dates so that you know to visit the workshop again.
Our Trailer Repair Services
Here’s a breakdown of what our trailer repair centre offers:
-
Comprehensive Trailer Inspections
We inspect the trailer and all its components for wear. Our experts identify the potential issues with the brakes, axles and bearings before they escalate to prevent unexpected breakdowns.
-
Trailer Brake Repairs and Adjustments
Reliable brakes prevent accidents and ensure safety on the road. Inspecting the brakes is a big part of our trailer servicing in Melbourne. We’ll assess the condition of the braking system and check it for damage. Our mechanics clean the callipers, drums and rotors to remove debris. Additionally, we’ll adjust the brakes for better stopping power.
-
Axle and Suspension Repairs
These movable parts support and stabilise a trailer, ensuring a smooth ride. The axle connects the cart to the wheels and bears the load, while the suspension system absorbs shocks from uneven surfaces. Damaged axles and worn suspension parts compromise stability and cause unnecessary downtime. Our team inspects these parts and suggests upgrades to improve their performance.
-
Electrical System Repairs
We repair and replace faulty tail lights, brake lights and indicators. You want these to be fully functional so ensure your trailer is safe and visible at night.
-
Trailer Coupling and Hitch Repairs
A coupler and hitch connect the trailer to the towing vehicle. Rust, corrosion or wear can compromise these modules, increasing the risk of detachment while driving. Our team carefully inspects and fixes worn-out parts to provide a secure connection.
-
Bodywork Repairs
Over time, minor dents may start to appear on the body. In certain cases, the structure may require repairs as well. We fix damage to the trailer body, restoring its strength and appearance.
