What are common signs that my boat trailer needs repair?

Uneven tire wear, squeaky or loose hubs, flickering lights, rusted parts, or poor braking are all red flags. We inspect the whole trailer, tell you what we find and quote any repair before the work starts.

Do you repair both bunk and roller boat trailers?

Yes. We work on bunk and roller trailers, single and tandem axle. We repair or replace winches, bunks, rollers and guides.

How much does boat trailer repair usually cost?

Labor is $150 an hour, plus parts and a one-way trip fee by distance when we come to you ($30 in San Pedro up to $110 in Newport Beach). Most trailer repairs such as lights, wiring and bearings take 1 to 2 hours; brakes, axles and springs are quoted after we look. You get a written estimate before any work starts.

Do you offer wheel bearing replacement and hub service?

Yes. We repack or replace wheel bearings, service hubs and install new grease seals. Regular bearing service makes a breakdown on the road much less likely.

Can you replace corroded leaf springs and suspension parts?

Yes – we replace leaf springs, shackles, axles, and torsion suspensions. Saltwater corrosion is common in coastal areas, so we use galvanized or stainless hardware for longer life.

Do you provide trailer lighting repair or rewiring?

Yes. We fix or replace LED and incandescent trailer lights, harnesses and connectors, using DOT-compliant lights and sealed, marine-grade wiring, and we test every light before you tow.

Can you service my trailer at the launch ramp or storage yard?

Yes. We repair trailers at boat yards, launch ramps and storage lots from Marina del Rey to Newport Beach; farther places on request. Each visit has a one-way trip fee by distance, from $30 in San Pedro to $110 in Newport Beach.

About this service

Boat Trailer Repair in Long Beach and San Pedro

We inspect and repair boat trailers at your storage yard from Marina del Rey to Newport Beach, or at our San Pedro shop. Salt water, long storage and heavy loads are hard on bearings, brakes, lights and tires, so we check the whole trailer and quote any repair before the work starts.

What the work covers

Wheel bearings and hubs: inspection, wheel bearing repack and hub replacement, and new seals where water has got in.
Brakes: surge brake actuators, brake lines, drums and discs, and brakes that seize or drag.
Lights and wiring: dead lights, corroded plugs and grounds, and LED trailer light rewiring and submersible upgrades.
Bunks and rollers: bunk board and carpet replacement, and rollers that no longer support the hull evenly.
Tires, frame and hitch: tires and wheels, springs and U-bolts, rust on the frame, the coupler, safety chains, the jack and the winch strap.

Worn parts are repaired or replaced, and parts are quoted with the job.

Signs your trailer needs work

A hub that runs hot, makes noise or slings grease after a drive
Lights that flicker, work only some of the time or stay dark
The trailer pulls to one side, or the brakes grab or drag
Cracked tire sidewalls or uneven tire wear
Rust flaking from the frame, springs or axle
The boat sits crooked on the bunks or rollers

Questions about boat trailer repair

How often should boat trailer bearings be checked?

Before every season, after long storage and whenever a hub runs hot, makes noise or leaks grease after a drive. Trailers backed into salt water at each launch need checks more often, because water works its way into the hubs. A freshwater rinse of the hubs, brakes and frame after each launch helps.

Why do trailer lights keep failing?

Salt water gets into sockets, plugs and splices at the ramp and corrodes them, and hot bulbs can crack when they hit cold water. Sealed LED lights hold up better. Unplugging the trailer before you back down the ramp lets hot bulbs cool first.

Book a visit: submit a ticket with the trailer size, the number of axles, the type of brakes, where it is kept and what you have noticed, or call (213) 693-0224.
