Pads, rotors, calipers and brake fluid. We pull the wheels, measure what's actually worn, show you the parts, and give you a firm number before any work starts. If your rear pads have a season left, we tell you that.
Quoted before we touch anything
Brake pricing depends on your vehicle and which parts are actually worn, so we don't post teaser prices. You approve a firm number first. Parts we trust: Textar, Raybestos, Bosch.

Something we didn't cover? Call (519) 823-5823 and ask.
How long do brake pads last?
Typically 40,000–80,000 km depending on how and where you drive. We measure them with every oil change.
Do I need rotors with pads?
Not always. If yours can be safely reused, we say so. We replace what's worn, not what's convenient.
Can I drive with grinding brakes?
Please don't. Grinding means metal on metal. Stopping distance suffers and the repair gets more expensive every day.
How fast can you get me in?
Usually this week. Brakes jump the queue — call and the receptionist finds you a slot.
Do I get a price before you start?
Always. We inspect first, quote you the number, and nothing happens until you approve it.
