Chassis Service

The chassis is one of the most important items of your caravan, folding camper, trailer tent, trailer or horsebox to be inspected and serviced.

During our comprehensive chassis service, we check the complete running gear from the hitch to the brakes and lights. You receive a full report afterwards with observations of problems identified and action required.
