About Our Trailer Welding Repair Service in Manchester
Trailer Welding Repair Manchester is a practical, down-to-earth service built around one simple idea: you shouldn’t have to transport heavy trailers or trailer parts across town just to get them repaired. I come to you, set up safely, and weld your trailer where it stands—yard, driveway, workshop, site or back garden.
Over the years I’ve worked on everything from small domestic trailers (ramps, brackets, tow points) through to commercial trailer chassis and plant trailer repairs. I’m used to tight access, busy yards, awkward angles and “can you just make it roadworthy” situations. If there’s a sensible solution, I’ll find it and explain it clearly.
Customers often tell me they appreciate dealing directly with the person doing the welding. No call centres, no confusing handovers—just straightforward advice, fair pricing, and tidy, strong repairs.
What Is Mobile Welding in Manchester?
Mobile welding means the welder comes directly to your location. I bring all welding equipment, tools, consumables, and if needed, a generator—so your trailer can be repaired on-site. This is ideal when trailers are too large, heavy, or inconvenient to transport to a workshop.
In Manchester, many trailer welding calls are urgent: a ramp that won’t support weight, a tow point that snapped, a cracked chassis bracket, or a trailer frame that needs reinforcement before use. Mobile welding cuts out delays and keeps your trailer working.
- ✓ Welding at homes, yards, workshops and building sites
- ✓ MIG, TIG and stick (MMA) welding available depending on the job
- ✓ Great for fixed or heavy trailer parts that can’t be moved
- ✓ Saves time and transport costs compared to workshop repairs
- ✓ Local trailer welding service covering Manchester & Greater Manchester
- ✓ Useful for repairs, reinforcement, modifications and new brackets
Unsure if your trailer can be repaired or needs replacement? Send a photo. I’ll provide a realistic assessment—because safety and reliability come first.

Why Mobile Trailer Welding Matters for Manchester Customers
Taking trailers or trailer parts to a workshop sounds simple—until you’re dealing with a heavy trailer frame, a fixed ramp, or a bulky chassis that can’t be towed safely. Mobile trailer welding in Manchester saves you the headache by fixing it where it sits.
That means less downtime, fewer recovery costs, and faster repairs. For haulage firms, it helps keep schedules on track. For trades and plant hire, it means equipment is back in service quickly. For private trailer owners, it means safe, reliable repairs without the hassle of transport.
On-site welding keeps trailers moving—no waiting for transport, no workshop queues, no extra handling.
Repairing on location can save on lifting gear, removal labour, and recovery vehicles—especially for bulky trailers.
Evenings and weekends can be arranged when possible, which is ideal for busy trades and working households.
Seeing the trailer in place often allows a smarter fix—adding a reinforcing plate or changing the bracket design to stop it failing again.

I use proper PPE, keep a fire extinguisher close, and manage cables and leads carefully. If conditions aren’t safe (for example, strong wind and rain outdoors), I’ll tell you honestly and rearrange or find an alternative.

I cover Manchester and most of Greater Manchester including Salford, Trafford, Stockport, Oldham, Bolton and surrounding areas. If you’re unsure, call and I’ll confirm.
3. Can you weld trailer chassis and frames?
Yes. I regularly weld trailer frames, chassis, ramps and connection plates on trailers, ideally following engineer details where provided.

Sometimes, yes (depending on the diary). Call 07700176109 with photos and your postcode and I’ll tell you the earliest realistic slot.
5. What metals can you weld on trailers?
Most commonly mild/structural steel. Stainless and aluminium may be possible depending on the job, access and conditions—send a photo and I’ll advise.
6. Do I need to provide power?
Power on-site helps, but it’s not always required. If needed, I can bring a generator—just tell me what’s available.
7. Can you weld outdoors?
Yes, as long as conditions are safe. Heavy rain or strong wind can affect quality and safety—if weather is bad we’ll rearrange.
8. Can you quote from photos?
Photos are the quickest way to get a guide price. Final cost can depend on what the metal is like once I’m on-site (rust/thickness/access).
9. Do you supply plates and brackets?
Yes—small plates, flat bar and brackets can often be supplied as part of the repair. Larger steel may need ordering in advance.
10. Can you weld vehicle trailer chassis for MOT?
Sometimes, if it’s suitable and safe. I’ll inspect first and may decline if corrosion is extensive or if it’s not a safe repair.
11. How do I prepare for your visit?
Clear the area, move flammables, and ensure there’s space to park nearby. If it’s in a back garden or tight access, tell me in advance.
12. How long will you be on site?
Small repairs can be under an hour. Ramp/frame work often takes 2–4 hours. Larger site jobs can be half day or full day.

14. Are you insured?
Yes, public liability insurance is in place for mobile welding work. Details can be provided on request.
15. Will sparks damage paintwork or glass?
Sparks can mark surfaces. I protect the area, but I always recommend moving vehicles and valuables where possible before welding starts.
16. Can you paint after welding?
Basic priming/paint can be added as an optional extra. Many customers prefer to paint later once everything is fully cooled and cleaned.
17. Do you issue paperwork for structural trailer work?
I can confirm what welding was carried out, but structural sign-off is always the responsibility of your engineer/building control.
18. What payment methods do you accept?
Bank transfer is preferred. Payment is normally due once the job is completed and you’re happy with the work.

Many jobs can be priced from photos. For larger or complicated work, a short site visit can be arranged.
