Refrigerated Trailer Maintenance in Leighton Buzzard

We service, diagnose and repair refrigeration units at our Leighton Buzzard workshop. Work on refrigerant circuits is carried out by certified engineers, as required by law - so every intervention on your units is properly documented and defensible under audit.

For operators hauling chilled or frozen goods, a fridge failure isn't just downtime - it's a rejected load, a broken cold chain and a customer audit question. We hold parts for every major unit brand on site, so most faults are diagnosed and fixed often without a return visit.

We needed a trailer urgently and buying from an 'online photo' can be dangerous. however it was not to be. They offered a new MOT, repaint all areas that needed some attention (not that many to be honest) and repainted the wheels too. Delivered to us in just over a week! That's service for you!

Why Temperature-Controlled Fleets Use Us

Refrigeration work is regulated work. Our engineers hold F-Gas certification, so every refrigerant intervention is legal and documented. We support ATP and FRC renewal, calibrate dataloggers and issue certificates for your compliance file. Unit parts for all major brands are held on site, so a diagnosis rarely means a second visit, and 24-hour breakdown cover means a failure on the road doesn't become a rejected load. Fridge work can be planned alongside your existing PMI and MOT schedule rather than sitting outside it.

Refrigerated Maintenance FAQs

What parts do you use for fridge trailer repairs?

We have access to a large stock of manufacturer-approved parts, which we use for all servicing and repairs to ensure the best results.

Do you offer same-day fridge repairs?

Dependent on availability and bookings. Our engineers carry a wide stock of approved parts, so many faults can be diagnosed and fixed the same day without booking a return visit.

How long does a fridge unit service take?

A routine service usually takes a few hours, though this depends on the unit and any issues found. We’ll always give you a clear timeframe before we start.

How often should a fridge trailer be serviced?

Most fridge units should be serviced at least once a year, though high-mileage or older units often benefit from more frequent checks to avoid breakdowns.

What happens if my fridge unit breaks down?

Our 24-hour breakdown coverage means we can get to you quickly wherever you are, and we’ll provide a replacement trailer if yours needs to come into the workshop.

Are your engineers F-Gas certified?

Yes. All work on refrigerant circuits is carried out by F-Gas certified engineers, as required by law, and documented for your compliance records.
