Downtime is the real cost of a damaged curtain. We assess from photographs so you know what the repair involves before the vehicle stops earning.

  • Pulled or missing eyelets
  • Strap and buckle damage

Photo Assessment

Send a wide photo and a close-up of the damage with an approximate tear length and we will revert with an assessment and quotation.

Welded Repairs

Repairs are welded onto a cleaned and prepared area so the patch is waterproof and holds tension.

Reinforcement

Surrounding panels are reinforced so the repair does not simply move the failure point a few centimetres along.

Hardware Replacement

Buckles, straps, eyelets and corner plates replaced during the same repair visit.

Panel Replacement

Where a tear runs too far, an individual panel can often be replaced rather than the whole curtain.

Fleet Repair Programmes

Scheduled repair rounds for operators running multiple curtain-side vehicles.

Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a torn tautliner curtain be repaired?+

In most cases yes. Clean tears, forklift strikes, failed seams, pulled eyelets and strap damage are repaired by welding a prepared PVC patch and reinforcing the surrounding panel.

How do I get a repair quote?+

Send photographs of the damage on WhatsApp — one from a metre back and one close-up — with the approximate tear length and the trailer type.

When is replacement better than repair?+

When the fabric is UV-chalked and brittle, when there are many overlapping repairs, or when a tear runs across most of a panel.

Do you repair the hardware too?+

Yes. Buckles, ratchets, straps, eyelets, corner plates and roller hooks can be replaced as part of the repair.

Send photos of the damage

A quick WhatsApp with photographs, an approximate measurement and the trailer type is all we need to assess and quote a tautliner repair.
