Restoring Structural Strength, Not Just Surface Shine
Your flatbed or trailer is built to work — hauling heavy loads, enduring constant exposure, and handling years of use. Over time, corrosion, grease buildup, and old coatings can compromise that strength, leaving your asset looking aged and performing below its potential.
At Apex Bed and Chassis, we specialize in complete flatbed and trailer restoration using advanced fiber laser cleaning technology.
Our process doesn’t just make metal look new again — it rebuilds the foundation of your trailer’s integrity.
Our Restoration Process
Each restoration begins with a full structural inspection to assess the condition of your frame, deck, and supports. From there, we take a precision-first approach:
- Laser Rust & Coating Removal
We use a high-powered, non-abrasive laser to remove rust, paint, and contaminants. This method cleans down to bare metal without grinding, warping, or trapping media like sandblasting often does. - Surface Preparation & Protection
Once the metal is clean, we apply industrial-grade primers or coatings designed to prevent future corrosion. This ensures a strong base for powder coating, paint, or other applications. - Component Detailing & Safety Review
Brake mounts, tongue connections, and suspension components are inspected and cleaned to restore reliable function and safety.
This process extends the life of your equipment while minimizing downtime and eliminating unnecessary disassembly.
Why Laser Restoration Is Different
Traditional sandblasting and chemical stripping have major drawbacks — they’re messy, time-consuming, and often damage the surface they’re meant to clean.
Our fiber laser process uses precision light energy to vaporize rust and coatings at the microscopic level. It’s faster, cleaner, and safer for heavy structural metals like steel and iron.
- Non-abrasive: Preserves welds and structural strength
- Precision-focused: Reaches tight spaces and corners
- No residue: Leaves a clean, dry, coating-ready surface
- Eco-friendly: No chemicals, no hazardous waste
The result is a structurally sound trailer or flatbed that’s ready for years of reliable service.
Protect Your Investment
Replacing a flatbed or trailer can easily cost $5,000–$15,000+, yet many can be fully restored for a fraction of that cost. Whether you own a single work trailer or manage an entire fleet, our process delivers measurable value:
- Restores integrity to aging frames
- Prepares surfaces for coatings that actually last
- Prevents corrosion from spreading
- Extends the working life of your asset
We work with commercial haulers, contractors, fleet operators, and individual owners who want to protect what they’ve already built.
