Trailer Service in Grandville, Michigan

Trailer repair in Grandville, on any make or model

You do not have to have bought the trailer here. Our mechanics work on any make or model, and most of what rolls into the shop was bought somewhere else. Below is what the garage actually handles, so you can tell before you call whether it is a job for us.

Wheel bearing re-packs, single and tandem axle

Bearings are the job most people put off and the one most likely to strand them. Grease breaks down, water gets past a worn seal after a launch or a wet spring, and the first symptom is often heat or a wobble you notice too late. We re-pack single and tandem axles, inspect the races while we are in there, and replace seals rather than reusing tired ones. If you tow a boat or a sled trailer that sits for months between seasons, this is the service worth booking before the season rather than during it.

Electric brake jobs on any make or model

We do brake work on any make or model of trailer, electric brakes only. That covers magnets, shoes, drums, adjusters and the wiring back to the controller. If your brakes grab on one side, do nothing at all, or your controller reads a fault, that is usually diagnosis first and parts second. We do not take on hydraulic or surge brake systems, so if that is what you have, say so when you call and we will tell you straight away rather than after you have driven over.

Suspension and spring replacement

Leaf springs sag, shackles wear oval, and equalisers wear out quietly on tandem axles. The tell is a trailer that sits low on one corner, or tyres wearing unevenly across the tread. We replace and repair springs, hangers, shackles and bushings. On a tandem it is worth doing both sides together, because a new spring next to a tired one just moves the problem.

Tires and wheels, mounted here

We mount here. Every size we carry is listed on the trailer tires and wheels page, so you can check before you drive over. Trailer tyres fail on age as much as tread, so a trailer that has sat three or four seasons on original rubber is worth a look even if the tread reads fine.

Wiring and lighting repair

Lighting faults are the most common reason a trailer fails a roadside check and the most common thing people try to fix twice. Corroded grounds, chafed runs and cheap connectors cause most of it. We replace and repair wiring harnesses, lights and connectors, and trace the fault rather than replacing parts until it goes away.

Jacks, couplers and the parts that take the abuse

Bent couplers, seized jacks and worn safety chain mounts are the things that fail at the worst moment. We replace and repair jacks and couplers on any trailer we can safely work on.

Welding and metal fabrication

We weld and fabricate on site, which matters for the repairs a parts swap cannot cover: cracked frames, torn tie-down points, damaged tongues, and brackets that no longer exist as a part number. If your trailer has taken a hit or a mount has torn out, this is the shop that can put steel back rather than telling you to replace the trailer.

Booking, and what to expect

Call ahead. Describe the symptom rather than the part you think you need, because the fault is often somewhere else along the circuit or the axle. Bring the trailer with the load off if you can, and tell us the axle make if you know it, since that decides which brake and bearing parts we pull from the counter.

Need parts rather than labour? The parts counter is on site. Buying instead of fixing? See used trailers or the full inventory, and we take trade-ins.

What customers say about the shop

Both of these are about the service side rather than a sale. Ezekiel was first brought here by his dad and now runs a construction company.
