Default Legendary Trailer Repair

I just had my dual axal trailer serviced by Legendary Trailer Repair, they are a mobile service that I would recommend for all types of trailers. Two years ago, I had a broken brake line replaced and two new aluminum cylinders installed by them. The rains from last week put them behind in their work (they are doing more shrink wrapping then trailer work at this time of year), but they finally got to me yesterday. Chris arrived with two other workers and went over the whole trailer with me. They repacked all the bearings, replaced a few parts to fix a frozen brake, replaced a broken side light, checked out everything from stem to stern. I felt the bill was very fair and I will be having them back next year for a $80 head to toe inspection (since it's getting some age on it).
Like I said, they are swamped with shrinkwrapping at this time, but if you want to take down their number for future work, it's 410-349-3611; ask for Dustin or Chris. 5th (Marty)

I have to add an addendum to the story. Chris noticed that I didn't have a spare for my trailer (I know, I know, I should always carry a spare). Chris said he thought he had one at the shop that they had replaced off of someone elses trailer. He said the tread was pretty low, but that it would be an ok spare in an emergency situation. I was to call them on Monday (today) to see if they still had it available. I called today and they GAVE it to me. Nice gesture on their part. I didn't want to post until the deed was done. They will get my business again for sure. 5th (Marty)

Since we had two board members who wanted info on cost; I believe the hourly labor charge was $80/ hr and they charged me for two hrs. Total bill was $319. I did tip the two "helpers" as well. I was pleased with the service and cost. 5th (Marty)
