Fibreglass and composite parts reduce weight and improve aerodynamics, but impacts, fatigue and UV exposure can crack laminates and gelcoats. Poor repairs lead to water ingress, delamination and premature failure. Wales Heavy Vehicle Repairs delivers fibreglass repairs and custom moulding that restore strength, profile and finish using approved materials, controlled processes and documented QA. Vehicles return to service looking right and performing reliably.
Bumpers, fairings, roof caps and side cowls repaired or remade to specification.
Nose cones, skirts, corner panels and luggage-door surrounds restored for presentation and safety.
Panels, nose cones and aero kits repaired; missing parts reproduced from in-house moulds.
Cabs, guards and covers repaired with reinforced laminates and protective finishes for harsh sites.
Consistent methods and documentation nationwide for predictable approvals and turnaround.
We combine composite specialists, controlled environments and verified processes to deliver strong, clean, repeatable results while reducing cycle time.
Structured inspection identifies cracks, star breaks, crushed cores and delamination. We photograph damage, measure profiles and note fastening and bonding systems to scope materials and labour accurately.
You receive an itemised estimate with imagery. We work directly with major insurers to streamline authorisations, confirm parts options and set realistic delivery dates.
Damaged sections are trimmed back to sound laminate. Bevels are prepared for scarf repairs. Patterns are taken for missing features and complex curves.
Layered mat and cloth are laid with approved resins to restore thickness and strength. Cores are replaced where required. Bonding is performed to manufacturer guidance.
We create plugs and moulds to reproduce unavailable or bespoke parts. Fit is verified against apertures, mount points and adjacent panels before finishing.
Surfaces are faired and primed, then refinished in down-draft bake booths. We colour match to OEM or fleet standards and reinstate decals or markings as specified.
Components are refitted with correct fasteners and sealants. A second-person QA confirms fit, profile and finish. You receive images and product data sheets.
Controlled areas for clean layup, curing and dust management to protect finishes.
Mat, cloth and core materials selected for strength-to-weight and durability.
In-house pattern making and moulding to reproduce unavailable or custom parts.
Approved bonding systems and mechanical fastening for long-term integrity.
Processes for transitions between plastics and fibreglass with appropriate primers.
Cured, high-gloss, chemically resistant finishes suitable for high-mileage fleets.
All in-house at major sites to reduce cycle time and maintain quality control.
Repairs follow OEM and material supplier methods using certified resins, cores and adhesives. Technicians are trained to current standards and our sites are authorised by leading insurers. We document laminate schedules, bonding systems and bake profiles. Safety and compliance are never compromised, and recommendations are data-driven.
Priority booking, SLA turnaround and consolidated invoicing support uptime and presentation standards. National consistency across company-owned sites ensures the same materials, methods and documentation in Perth, Adelaide, Darwin, Melbourne, Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane and Townsville. Milestone updates are provided from approval to QA.
