Mobile hydraulic repair in Platteville, Colorado
On-site hydraulic hose and cylinder repair for farms and job sites around Longmont, Colorado.
Call (970) 528-6741Longmont Mobile Hydraulics is a Longmont-based mobile hydraulic hose and cylinder service, and Platteville is core coverage, not an outer edge.
Platteville works the South Platte bottoms, and the bottoms are hard on equipment. Dairies, corn ground, and the gravel operations along the river all run loaders, feed mixers, and irrigation drives that live in sand, silt, and water. Hydraulic systems in that environment fail from contamination and abrasion more than age.
A mobile hose truck earns its keep here because so much of the equipment cannot travel. A feed mixer down at morning feeding cannot wait for a parts run to Greeley, and a loader stuck at a gravel pit is not driving anywhere. We come down US-85, make the hoses at the machine, and get the operation moving the same day.
We also see a steady run of cylinder work out of Platteville. Bottomland grit gets past rod wipers, scores the rod, and starts the slow leak that ends with a bucket that will not hold. Caught early, that is a reseal. Caught late, it is a rod repair. Either way we quote it from a published table before work starts.
Bottomland equipment has its own failure modes
Dairy work around Platteville has a rhythm the rest of the trade does not: feeding happens twice a day no matter what, so a mixer wagon or vertical feed hydraulic failure is urgent at 4 am in a way a tillage tractor never is. We answer for that.

Common Platteville calls
- Our feed mixer is down and cows need to eat. Do you do early morning calls?
- Yes. Feeding deadlines count as emergencies. Call the number at the top of this page, say it is a feed mixer, and we roll. After-hours calls carry the emergency rate from our pricing page, stated before we leave.
- Can you fix equipment at a gravel pit or do we have to haul it out?
- We fix it at the pit. Site rules vary, so tell us the operator and gate procedure when you call. The truck is self-contained and does not need shop power.
- A cylinder on our loader drifts down overnight. Is that worth a call?
- That drift is internal bypass, usually worn piston seals, and it gets worse until the machine is unsafe to park loaded. A reseal now typically runs $350 to $900. Waiting until the rod scores can triple that.
