      After Ricks presentation on trailers. I want to assist those who are seeking trailer repairs.
      I have been searching for service for a while getting quotes of up to $5000 on framework welding.
      But persistence paid off1.

      My boat requires cross membrane replacement, bunks metal replacement, guide post, fender frame brace welding, upgrade on electrical, and for road safety they check your wheel bearing check and service. they will also inspect the brakes.
      The quote was $2000 up to $2200 as a buffer for parts and misc.
      What they wont do is replace the bunk boards or carpet, but holes will be drilled and ready for new bolts and bunks.

      Brian quoted $2300 plus parts with a could be less. But I had to wait a week (7 days) before I could bring in the trailer.

      Both locations have a lull right now and they can handle boat trailers, at the end of April RV’s and Horse trailers will fill the lot and work orders.

      The only thing that can slow down turn around time if heavy rigs from hwy breakdown get delivered, they are priority.

      I will update this post when I get my trailer back with complete breakdown.

      After I replace the rotten metal beams, I painted the entire trailer with PRO 15. This paint is expensive and I used approximately 2 litres to paint the entire trailer. The paint goes on smoothly and evenly. The paint encapsulates the metal with a plastic-like finish. Also, I replace treated wooden bunks and carpet. See photos.

      If you have your boat on the Go-Hoist while the trailer is being over hauled, then you might consider painting the boat bottom with a good marine bottom paint. See Photo

        That looks great! Where did you get the Pro Paint from? I think it’s time to give mine a fresh look also
