Reliable trailer performance begins with expert repair and consistent maintenance. At Trailer Works
in Buford, GA, we provide comprehensive trailer repair services for utility trailers, boat trailers, cargo trailers, equipment haulers, and more. Our experienced technicians work with precision to identify and resolve mechanical issues before they become hazards on the road. Whether you're hauling equipment or transporting goods, our full-service trailer repair solutions are designed to keep your trailer safe, compliant, and fully functional.
Complete Brake System Services
The brake system is critical to trailer safety, and it requires regular inspection and service. At Trailer Works, we provide full brake system diagnostics and repair for electric, hydraulic, and surge brake configurations. Brake shoe replacement, brake drum resurfacing, magnet replacements, and hydraulic line repair are all part of our service offering.
If the brakes are locking up, dragging, or not engaging properly, our team conducts thorough testing to resolve the issue efficiently. Routine brake checks are recommended to ensure proper weight distribution and responsive braking while towing.
Bearing and Hub Maintenance
Wheel bearings are one of the most frequently overlooked components in trailer maintenance, yet they are essential for smooth towing. Our technicians disassemble and clean the bearings, inspect them for scoring or overheating, and re-pack them with high-temperature grease.
We also check the hub seals for leaks and wear. If there’s excessive play or noise in the wheel area, it’s often related to a worn bearing or hub assembly. Our shop provides quick turnaround for bearing replacements and hub reconditioning, helping you avoid roadside breakdowns.
Trailer Lighting and Electrical Repairs
Proper lighting and wiring are required for safe operation on Georgia roads. From malfunctioning tail lights to shorted turn signals or corroded wiring, our trailer lighting services cover it all. We inspect and replace broken connectors, damaged harnesses, and faulty LED or incandescent bulbs.
Water intrusion is common in boat trailers and utility trailers, so we also provide sealed lighting upgrades and improved wiring configurations for long-term reliability. Every electrical repair is tested thoroughly to ensure roadworthiness and DOT compliance.
Axle Inspections and Replacements
The axle is one of the most stressed components of a trailer. If you're noticing uneven tire wear, sagging suspension, or alignment issues, it may be time to service or replace your axle. Our technicians measure alignment, inspect U-bolts and spring mounts, and verify weight ratings.
We handle straight axles, drop axles, and torsion axles for single or tandem trailer configurations. When needed, we can source and install axles of the appropriate load capacity to restore towing performance and structural integrity.
Suspension Service and Shock Component Repair
Rough rides, clunking noises, or trailer bounce often point to suspension problems. Leaf springs, equalizers, bushings, and shackles wear down over time. At our Buford shop, we perform full suspension checks to identify broken leaves, worn pivot bolts, or deformed spring hangers.
Replacement parts are installed using factory-grade techniques to restore balance and ride comfort. For trailers equipped with torsion axles, we also inspect internal rubber cords for breakdown and wear.
Jack Replacement and Mounting Repair
Jacks play a vital role in stabilizing and uncoupling trailers. If your jack won’t lift, leaks oil, or binds during operation, we offer direct replacements for top-wind, side-wind, and electric jack systems.
Mounts are reinforced as needed and rusted hardware is replaced. We also install drop-leg and heavy-duty jack systems for equipment trailers and industrial haulers
Drum, Wheel, and Tire Repair
Our technicians inspect drums for scoring or warping, providing replacements when resurfacing is no longer viable. We also examine wheel condition and tire sidewalls for cracks, flat spots, or punctures.
If your tires are experiencing uneven wear, we check inflation, axle alignment, and suspension loading. Replacements are available for most trailer tire sizes, and we also offer balanced mounting to reduce bounce at highway speeds.
Routine Preventive Maintenance Packages
Preventive maintenance ensures that your trailer remains reliable year-round. Our scheduled service packages include a full inspection of brakes, hubs, suspension, wiring, and tires. We also test lighting, check frame welds, and lubricate moving parts.
These services are tailored to the frequency and weight of trailer use. Clients who operate in commercial or construction sectors benefit from these periodic evaluations, as they help prevent larger mechanical issues and reduce downtime.
