Trailer Fabrication on the Sunshine Coast

Sunshine Coast Trailer Fabrication
A trailer only works if it’s built for what you haul. Jensen Welding & Fabrication offers custom truck and trailer fabrication across the Sunshine Coast—servicing Buderim, Caloundra, Chevallum and surrounds.
Whether it’s a tradesman’s box trailer, a boat trailer or something to move machinery, we build and modify trailers to suit real-world use. That means reinforcing weak points, adjusting drawbars, replacing cracked welds or fabricating from scratch using steel or aluminium.
All work is done by a qualified boilermaker with years of experience building for tough Queensland conditions—no shortcuts, no squeaky joints. Need a ramp, tie-down points or storage compartments? We’ll make sure it fits and works exactly as it should.
Whatever you tow, it’s worth building it right the first time. Contact our team on

Trailer Fabrication That Handles The Load
Not all work vehicles roll off the lot ready for the job. That’s where trailer fabrication crosses over into truck and ute mods. Need a heavier-duty tray? New headboard? Stronger underbody supports or customised storage? That’s all part of the job.
We weld and modify steel and aluminium trays to suit your setup—whether you’re carting gear, tools, timber or something heavier. A well-built tray adds life to the vehicle and saves time on-site. We can also repair cracked welds, realign mounts, and add practical features like ladder racks, tie-down rails or removable sides.
If it’s part of your daily setup, it needs to be strong, smart and secure. With fabrication handled in-house, turnaround is tight and the result is built for hard use, not just show.
Strong where it counts, built for what you carry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can aluminium be used for trailers?
Yes—aluminium is a great option for trailers where weight reduction is important. It won’t rust, is easy to maintain and works well for boat trailers, domestic use or lighter loads.
Steel is better suited for heavy-duty applications, but aluminium is ideal when corrosion resistance and a lighter frame are priorities. Both materials can be custom fabricated depending on the job.
What trailer repairs can be done onsite?
Many welding repairs can be done onsite, especially when a trailer is too damaged or heavy to transport. This can include cracked welds, broken gates, rusted joints or axle brackets.
A mobile welder can assess damage and carry out structural repairs using portable welding equipment. For major rebuilds or full tray replacements, work is usually done in the workshop.
Can ute trays be custom built or modified?
Absolutely. Ute trays can be fabricated from scratch or modified to suit specific tools, loads or trade needs. That includes adding tie-down points, underbody toolboxes, ladder racks, mesh headboards or even tray extensions.
Custom trays are often stronger and more practical than stock options, with better weight distribution and features designed to handle day-to-day use.
