Our Comprehensive Brake Services


We offer a full range of brake services to meet all your needs. We are equipped to diagnose and repair all components of your brake system, ensuring a complete and lasting solution.
  • Brake Inspections: We perform thorough, multi-point brake inspections to assess the condition of your brake pads, rotors, calipers, and fluid. Regular inspections are the best way to catch minor issues before they become major problems.
  • Brake Pad & Shoe Replacement: Worn pads are the most common cause of brake issues. We replace old pads and shoes with durable, high-quality parts that meet or exceed manufacturer specifications.
  • Rotor Resurfacing & Replacement: Worn or warped rotors can cause vibrations and reduce stopping power. We can either resurface your existing rotors or replace them with new ones to ensure smooth, efficient braking.
  • Brake Fluid Flushes: Brake fluid can become contaminated over time, which affects your braking performance. Our flush service removes old fluid and replaces it with fresh fluid to maintain optimal system pressure and prevent corrosion.
  • Caliper & Master Cylinder Service: We have the expertise to diagnose and repair more complex issues with your master cylinder, calipers, and other vital brake components, restoring full functionality to your system.

Signs You Need Brake Service

Don't ignore the warning signs. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's time to have your brakes checked by a professional.

  • Squealing or Grinding Sounds: A high-pitched squeal often indicates that your brake pads are worn down. A low grinding sound can mean that the pads are completely gone and you are now grinding metal-on-metal.
  • A Spongy or Soft Pedal: If your brake pedal feels soft or sinks to the floor when you press it, it could be a sign of a fluid leak or a problem with the master cylinder.
  • Vibrations or Pulsing: If your steering wheel or brake pedal vibrates when you brake, it likely means you have a warped rotor.
  • Vehicle Pulls to One Side: This can be a sign of a sticky caliper or an uneven brake issue.
  • Brake Warning Light: If your brake light illuminates on your dashboard, it is a clear sign that a professional inspection is needed immediately.
