Exact Diesel & Mechanical provides mobile trailer repairs in Albany and across the Great Southern. We're a mobile diesel mechanic, so we come to your yard, depot, farm or worksite to repair and service your trailers where they sit. We work on trailers used in trucking, earthmoving and forestry, including brakes, electrical faults and general repairs. We're locally owned and a licensed repairer (MRB13038), covering Albany, Denmark, Walpole, the Great Southern, Lake Grace and Esperance.
A trailer off the road stops the whole load
When a trailer has a brake fault, a lighting problem or a worn bearing, the truck in front of it can't do its job either. Dragging an unsafe trailer to a workshop isn't a good option, and waiting for a workshop booking means more time off the road.
We bring the repair to the trailer. Most trailer repairs and servicing can be done where it's parked, so it's safe, legal and back behind the truck sooner.
Trailer repairs we do
Trailer brake repairs
Worn brakes, brake adjustment and brake system faults. Trailer brakes take a lot of punishment under heavy loads, so we inspect and repair them to keep your combination stopping safely.
Air brake repairs on trailers
Air leaks and air brake faults on heavy trailers. We find the leak or fault and fix it on site.
Trailer electrical repairs
Lights, indicators, brake lights, plugs, sockets and wiring faults. Electrical faults are one of the most common trailer problems and can quickly make a trailer unroadworthy. See also Auto Electrical.
Wheel bearings and hubs
Noisy, hot or worn wheel bearings replaced before they fail on the road.
Suspension and general repairs
Suspension, steering on dollies, and general wear and tear repairs.
Trailer servicing
Regular trailer servicing catches the small things before they become roadside problems:
- Brake inspection and adjustment
- Wheel bearing checks and repacking
- Lights and electrical checks
- Air system and leak checks
- Tyre and wheel checks
- Greasing and a general safety check

Signs your trailer needs attention
Trailer faults are easy to miss from the driver's seat. Book a repair or service if you notice any of these:
- Lights or indicators not working, or working only some of the time.
- The trailer pulling to one side under braking.
- Brakes dragging, grabbing or overheating, or a burning smell after a run.
- Air leaks you can hear when the trailer is parked and coupled up.
- A hub that's hot to touch after a trip, or a grinding or rumbling noise from a wheel.
- Uneven or fast tyre wear, which can point to brake, bearing or alignment problems.
- Damaged plugs, sockets or wiring at the coupling.
Catching these early keeps your trailer safe and roadworthy, and is usually far cheaper than a roadside repair. If you're not sure whether it can wait, call 0409 707 517 and talk it through.
Why trailer maintenance matters
Trailers in the Great Southern carry heavy loads over highways, gravel roads and farm and forestry tracks. Brakes, bearings and wiring all wear faster under that work. A trailer with a brake or lighting fault isn't just a breakdown risk, it can put the driver and other road users at risk too. Regular checks keep your trailers working as hard as your trucks.
Trailers we work on
- Truck trailers
- Tipper and side tipper trailers
