Flooring That Holds Up Under Weight

Professional Shelby trailer flooring installation serving Petrolia, Texas and the surrounding region.

When you haul automobiles across Petrolia and the surrounding areas, your trailer flooring takes repeated weight from tires, ramps, and loading equipment. Over time, wood warps, metal corrodes, and seams weaken. JB Manufacturing & Repair installs durable flooring designed to handle the weight and friction that comes with transporting vehicles across north central Texas roads.

The installation process begins with removing damaged or worn sections and preparing the trailer frame for new material. The team works with all trailer sizes commonly used in Petrolia, fitting each board or panel precisely to eliminate gaps that collect moisture or create weak points. Every piece is secured to handle the rolling load of tires and the impact of ramps during loading and unloading.

If your trailer flooring shows signs of rot, cracking, or separation, schedule a flooring installation or repair consultation today.

What Changes After the Flooring Goes In

You will notice the difference as soon as you roll the first vehicle onto the trailer in Petrolia. The surface sits level, the boards do not flex under tire weight, and the edges align without gaps. JB Manufacturing & Repair uses materials selected for their resistance to oil, water, and repeated pressure from vehicle transport.

After installation, the trailer bed supports weight evenly across all contact points. Tires no longer sink into soft spots, and tie-down anchors stay fixed in place. The flooring also resists splintering, which protects both the trailer frame and the vehicles being hauled.

If your flooring wears down over time, the same team can repair or replace sections as part of ongoing maintenance. This keeps your trailer ready for work without requiring a full rebuild. The work is done to match the original installation, so repaired sections integrate cleanly with the rest of the deck.

Trailer owners in north central Texas often ask about material options, installation timelines, and what happens if only part of the floor needs attention. These answers cover the most frequent concerns before scheduling work.

Questions About Flooring Work Are Common

What type of flooring material is used for automobile trailers?
JB Manufacturing & Repair uses treated lumber or composite decking depending on the trailer type and intended use. Both options resist moisture and hold up under repeated vehicle loads.
How long does a flooring installation take?
Most installations are completed within one to two days, depending on trailer size and the extent of damage. You can drop off your trailer in Petrolia and pick it up once the work is finished.
What happens if only part of the floor is damaged?
The team can remove and replace individual boards or sections without tearing out the entire deck. This saves time and keeps costs lower while restoring the structural integrity of the trailer.
Why does trailer flooring wear out faster in some areas?
Sections near the ramps and wheel tracks take more impact and friction during loading. These areas are also more exposed to road spray, which accelerates rot if the wood is untreated.
What should I do if the flooring feels soft or uneven?
Bring the trailer in for inspection. Soft spots usually mean the wood has absorbed water or the fasteners have loosened, both of which require attention before the damage spreads.
