Schedule Trailer Repair & Welding Services in Detroit

Your trailer keeps your business moving, whether you're hauling equipment across Detroit or delivering materials to job sites throughout the city. When axles crack, frames bend, or hitches fail, you need repairs that hold up under real-world conditions. Metal Man Mobile Welding delivers complete structural welding and reinforcement for utility, equipment, and cargo trailers of all sizes.

We handle axle repairs, frame straightening, tongue reconstruction, gate welding, and hitch replacement using both aluminum and steel welding techniques. If you need custom fabrication for ramps, side extensions, or other modifications, we build components that integrate seamlessly with your existing trailer structure. Mobile repair options bring our equipment directly to your location when downtime isn't an option.

Book your trailer repair & welding services in Detroit and get back on the road with confidence.

What to Expect When You Book?

When you bring your trailer in for service, we start with a full structural assessment to identify stress points, cracks, and areas showing early signs of failure. You'll receive a detailed breakdown of what needs immediate attention and what can be monitored over time. This approach ensures you're not paying for unnecessary work while addressing safety-critical issues first.


Metal Man Mobile Welding uses MIG and TIG welding methods selected based on your trailer's material and load requirements. We rebuild tongue assemblies, reinforce corner joints, and replace worn gate hinges with heavy-duty hardware. Fast turnaround times mean most repairs are completed within one to two business days.


All welds are ground smooth and treated to resist rust, especially important given Detroit's winter road conditions. We test hitches under load before release and verify that axles align properly to prevent uneven tire wear. 


Custom ramps are fabricated with slip-resistant surfaces and welded using full-penetration joints for maximum strength.

Will repairs hold up under heavy loads?
All structural welds are designed to meet or exceed the original manufacturer's specifications. We use full-penetration techniques on load-bearing joints and reinforce high-stress areas with additional bracing when needed.

Whether you're dealing with a cracked tongue, a rusted-out frame section, or a gate that won't latch, we provide repairs that restore your trailer's functionality and safety. Reach out today to schedule an inspection and get a detailed repair plan.
