Yes, we offer comprehensive preventative maintenance programs for commercial trailers. Our trailer PM services include:

• Structural Inspections: Checking frame rails, cross members, and support structures for damage, cracks, or corrosion
• Floor Assessments: Examining floor boards for rot, damage, or weak spots before they fail under load
• Door System Maintenance: Lubricating hinges, rollers, and tracks while checking seals and hardware
• Roof Inspections: Looking for punctures, tears, or seam separations that could lead to water intrusion
• Electrical System Testing: Verifying all lights and electrical components function properly
• Brake and ABS Services: Testing brake function, ABS systems, and adjusting as needed
• Landing Gear Lubrication: Ensuring smooth operation of landing gear mechanisms
• Wheel End Inspections: Checking wheel seals, bearings, and hub conditions
• Documentation: Providing detailed inspection reports for maintenance records and DOT compliance

We can schedule preventative maintenance at regular intervals based on your usage patterns and equipment type. Many clients find that regular PM visits significantly reduce emergency repairs and extend trailer life.

For trailer floor replacements, we use only high-quality materials designed for the heavy demands of commercial trailers:

• Apitong/Keruing Hardwood: This dense, durable tropical hardwood is the industry standard for trailer flooring. It offers excellent strength-to-weight ratio and natural resistance to wear and impact.
• Treated Pine/Fir: For more budget-conscious repairs, we offer pressure-treated pine or fir options that provide good durability at a lower cost.
• Composite Flooring: In certain applications, we can install composite flooring materials that offer excellent durability and moisture resistance.
• Aluminum Flooring: For specialized applications or refrigerated trailers, we can install aluminum flooring that offers excellent durability and easy cleaning.
• Heavy-Duty Floor Screws: We use torx-drive, zinc-plated screws designed specifically for trailer flooring to ensure secure attachment.
• Specialized Sealants: For refrigerated trailers, we apply appropriate sealants to prevent moisture intrusion.

All floor replacements are installed according to manufacturer specifications, with proper drilling, countersinking, and fastening methods to ensure maximum durability and longevity. We can replace individual boards, sections, or complete floors depending on your needs.

Repair times vary significantly depending on the type and extent of damage. Here are some general timeframes for common trailer repairs:

• Door Repairs: 4-8 hours depending on components needing replacement
• Lighting/Electrical Issues: 1-4 hours for most electrical repairs
• Partial Floor Replacement: 1-2 days depending on size of the area
• Complete Floor Replacement: 2-4 days
• Roof Patching: 4-8 hours for typical repairs
• Full Roof Replacement: 2-5 days
• Structural/Frame Repairs: 1-7+ days depending on extent of damage

Factors that can affect repair time include:

• Material availability (though we stock common repair materials)
• Weather conditions for outdoor mobile repairs
• Discovery of additional damage during the repair process
• Complexity of the trailer design
