Farm Fleet Services: Tractor Breakdown Specialists Devon Cornwall
Farm and Fleet Services: Your Trusted Tractor Breakdown Specialists Across Devon and Cornwall
When your tractor breaks down in the middle of harvest season or during critical fieldwork, every minute counts. That's where Farm and Fleet Services steps in, providing swift, professional tractor breakdown assistance throughout Devon and Cornwall. With decades of combined experience and a commitment to getting you back to work as quickly as possible, we're the reliable partner farmers and fleet operators trust when things go wrong.
Why Quick Response Matters in Agricultural Breakdowns
Agricultural machinery breakdowns don't follow convenient schedules. They happen during the busiest seasons, in remote fields, and often when weather windows are tight. A single day of downtime during harvest can cost thousands of pounds in lost productivity, damaged crops, or missed market opportunities.
Farm and Fleet Services understands these pressures intimately. That's why we've built our entire operation around rapid response times and comprehensive coverage across the Southwest's agricultural heartland. Whether you're dealing with hydraulic failure on a hillside in Dartmoor or engine trouble in a Cornish field, our mobile workshop units are equipped and ready to reach you.

Emergency Response When You Need It Most
Agricultural emergencies don't respect normal working hours. That's why Farm and Fleet Services operates an emergency callout system covering evenings, weekends, and bank holidays.

- Parts sourcing from our extensive network of suppliers
- Realistic time estimates so you can plan alternative arrangements if needed

While breakdown response is our speciality, we also offer comprehensive preventive maintenance services. Regular servicing not only reduces the likelihood of unexpected failures but also helps identify potential issues before they become costly repairs.
Our maintenance services include:
- Seasonal preparation for busy periods
- Hydraulic system health checks to prevent costly failures
- Engine diagnostics using manufacturer-level equipment
- Transmission servicing to extend component life
- Safety inspections ensuring compliance with current regulations
