Checking Your BrakesStart with a Free Brake Inspection (about 30 minutes)
A certified technician documents the system front to back, then provides a digital, itemized report so the next steps are clear. What gets checked:
- Brake pads/shoes (thickness, wear pattern)
- Rotors/drums (runout, scoring, minimum thickness)
- Hardware (clips and springs)
- Calipers (slides, piston operation, leaks)
- Brake fluid (condition, moisture)
- Brake lines & hoses (rust, abrasion, seepage)
- Master cylinder & power booster (assist and pedal feel)
- ABS/ESC (warning lights, basic diagnostics)
Resurface or Replace?Brake Pads & Rotors: You’ve Got Options
With every pad install, you should resurface or replace your rotors to ensure safe, even braking.
Quick guide:
- Resurface rotors when wear is light and they meet thickness guidelines (often the budget-friendly option).
- Replace rotors if they’re warped, cracked, or below spec for safe braking
Brake and Tire Check still resurfaces rotors when it’s the safe, cost-effective choice and replaces them when specs or damage say so. Not every shop measures, but we do.
| Resurface | Replace | |
| Cost | Lower Cost | High upfront cost, varies by vehicle |
| Time | Typically takes longer | Typically faster install |
| Benefits | Smooths surface, can extend rotor life | New rotors ensure peak performance |
| Best if | Rotors have mild wear & meet thickness guidelines | Rotors are warped, cracked, or too thin |
Only pay for what you need:
We’ll inspect and measure your rotors in person and let you know your options!

Questions & AnswersBrakes FAQs

How do I know if I need brake repair?
Squeaking or grinding, steering wheel shake while braking, longer stops, a soft pedal, or warning lights are all common signs. We’ll check it all so start with a free inspection.
-
Can I resurface rotors instead of replacing them?
Yes—if they’re still within safe thickness limits. We’ll measure and show you the difference.
-
What’s included in your brake inspection?
Brake pads, rotors, fluid, calipers, and more—at no cost and no pressure.
-
How much does brake service cost?
It depends on what you need. Our online estimator will give you a starting point and a free inspection will outline what’s needed for your vehicle, on a part‑by‑part basis, so you don’t buy anything that’s not right for you. You only pay for what you need.

Do you offer a Lifetime Warranty, and what exactly is that?

When it’s time to replace the part, come see us! You will only pay a small labor fee—the charge for us to change out the part.
-
Can I bring my own parts?
There is no need! We buy our pads directly from great suppliers which means you get the same, but usually better pricing, than the automotive retail stores. Plus, our pads come with a Lifetime Warranty and peace of mind that we’re installing the right part for your vehicle.
