Stage 1 Rebuilding process
Our rebuild process has many stages, but starts with in-depth inspection of each trailer and a planned costing and rebuild schedule, we then start the with a total strip down of the trailer, and make good the panels and framework, stripping the paint work and removing any rust, before any re welding or replacing framework prior to adding additional framework in the desired locations for vending hatches and personal doors.

Stage 2 Rebuilding process
The most important area of any trailer conversion is the under gear, the chassis and running gear which the framework sits on, this is crucial to road safety and your insurance, unless the axles and hitch are in perfect condition, which is really only on later models, we will service the existing equipment but replace all brakes, bearings, seals and brake cables, we will also upgrade the towing hitch, for older vintage horsebox trailer have axles and brake systems that are no longer available so we replace the entire running gear with up to date equipment, and to finish this stage we fit weatherproof Phenolic Resin Hardwood flooring.
