Trailers that live in storage
Most Villages boats and trailers live in a storage lot rather than a driveway, and a trailer that sits for weeks between trips has its own set of problems. Bearing grease settles, brake actuators and calipers seize, lights corrode in their sockets, and tires dry-rot long before the tread wears out. A once-a-year service before your busy season — bearings repacked, brakes checked, wiring tested — heads off most of it. That's routine trailer repair in The Villages for us, on any make. For the tires themselves we refer you to Tire Express in Ocala, who read DOT date codes for free.
Where Villages boaters launch
Inside the community it's Lake Sumter and Lake Miona, mostly pontoons and small fishing boats. A lot of residents tow further: east to Lake Griffin and the Harris Chain through Leesburg, west to Lake Panasoffkee, or all the way to the Gulf at Crystal River and Homosassa. Short in-community hops are easy on a trailer; the Gulf runs are the ones that bring salt, corrosion and hub trouble into the shop.
Custom welding and small fab projects
Not everything is a trailer. Villages customers bring us racks, brackets, mounts, handrails and one-off parts, including golf-cart modifications, all welded in aluminum, steel or stainless. Bring a drawing, a photo or the broken part — see custom welding in The Villages for the kinds of jobs we take on. Bigger projects, like trusses for a pole barn on acreage outside the community, go through our metal fabrication shop.
Planning the drop-off
The shop opens at 6 a.m. Monday through Friday and closes at 3 p.m., with Saturdays by appointment, so an early drop-off beats the afternoon traffic on 441. Call (352) 620-4963 ahead with the make, length and what's wrong, and we'll tell you honestly whether it's a same-visit fix or needs to stay a few days. Replacing a trailer instead? We build new aluminum boat trailers sized to your hull.
