Plant trailers work hard. Repeated loading, site dirt, weather exposure and heavy use can accelerate wear in brakes, bearings, tyres, coupling components and suspension.
Workshop servicing for working trailers
We can inspect common wheel brakes, cables, drums, hubs, bearings, tyres, wheels, coupling and overrun components, breakaway equipment, road lighting and visible suspension/axle hardware.
A hot hub, dragging wheel, poor handbrake, uneven braking or excessive wheel play should be investigated rather than left until the next routine service.
Ramps and loading hardware
Loading ramps, supports, catches and visible attachment points should be checked for obvious damage or deterioration. Mechanical trailer servicing does not replace any specialist inspection required for plant or lifting equipment.
If possible, include the model, approximate age, axle/brake identification and photographs when you contact us. This helps us confirm workshop suitability and identify parts before the trailer arrives.
Frequently asked questions
Can you service Ifor Williams GH and GX plant trailers?
Many common Ifor Williams plant trailers can be serviced. Give us the model or photographs so we can confirm suitability and likely parts requirements.
Can you diagnose a hot wheel?
Yes. Brake drag, bearing problems and hub faults can all generate heat, so the system needs proper inspection.
Can you repair road lights on a plant trailer?
Yes, common trailer-side plug, cable and road-lighting faults can be diagnosed and repaired.
