FRONT & REAR BRAKE PAD REPLACEMENT


When you visit us for brake pad replacement, we inspect both front and rear brake pads with various replacement options to fit the budget.

Front Brake Pad Replacement


Front brake pads are a critical part of regular vehicle maintenance. Your brake pads provide the necessary friction to slow down or stop your vehicle when you apply the brakes. Over time, front brake pad replacement is required due to the constant friction, making it essential to replace pads for optimal braking performance and safety.


When To Replace Your Brake Pads?


A definite answer to when you should replace brake pads depends on vehicle type and driving style. If most driving is within or city you’ll be using your brakes more often than a long highway traffic free drive. Brake pads are generally thought to be good between 30,000 - 35,000 km during city driving and may last as long as 50,000 - 80,000 km in rural and highway driving. With that said, there are symptoms that indicate your vehicle needs a brake pad replacement.


Rear Brake Pad Replacement


Rear brake pads work in conjunction with the front pads to provide balanced stopping power. Although they do slightly less work than the front pads, over a longer time period, your rear brake pads will need replacement to ensure reliable braking performance.


Signs Your Brake Pads Need Replacement?


Squeaking or squealing while braking / slowing down indicates that the brake pads wear indicator is making contact with the rotors.

 

Grinding sounds while braking means the brake pads have completely worn out, and the metal backing of the pads is grinding against the rotor. This requires immediate brake repair.


Reduced brake responsiveness or the need to apply more pressure to the brake pedal suggests the brake pads have thinned significantly, reducing their effectiveness.


Longer braking distance with increased pressure on the brake pedal suggests severely worn brake pads requiring replacement.

FRONT & REAR BRAKE ROTOR REPAIR & RESURFACING



mechanic-service-shop.png

What Is A Brake Rotor Repair?


A brake disc repair means machining or resurfacing your front or rear brake rotors. The main components of a brake disc repair are the brake pads and rotors. The rotor works as a cushion while the brake pads press against the metal brake discs. If the rotors become uneven but still have enough thickness, we can resurface the brake rotors rather than replace them.


Should You Replace Or Resurface Your Brake Rotors? 


Before resurfacing your brake rotors, we will measure the thickness to ensure they have enough metal surface to machine. We measure rotor thickness according to manufacturer specifications. If your rotors fall below these specs a brake rotor replacement will be required. Either way, we will inform you before any repair is performed on your vehicle.


How Long Will My Brake Rotor Repair Take?


Front and rear brake rotor resurfacing can typically be done within a few hours. Machining brake rotor demands precision and expertise. Resurfacing front and rear brake rotors is a meticulous process, ensuring a smooth, even surface for optimal brake pad contact. While resurfacing takes time to achieve perfection, replacement involves careful alignment and fitting, making it a detailed procedure that guarantees your vehicle's braking system functions flawlessly.


What Are The Signs For Brake Rotor Repair?


The main signs your brake rotors need repair replacement or resurfacing include:


  • Vibration or pulsation in the brake pedal or steering wheel when braking, is a sign of uneven brake rotor surfaces. Known as brake pedal pulsation, indicates the need for rotor resurfacing or replacement.


  • Visible scoring or grooves on the rotor surface are signs of rotor wear. These imperfections can affect brake pad contact and performance, requiring brake rotor resurfacing or replacement.


  • Blue or discolored rotor surface from excessive heat or aggressive or prolonged braking signifies overheating and potential damage, necessitating rotor inspection and repair.


  • Rotor thickness variation occurs when different parts of the rotor have varying thickness levels. This unevenness can cause brake pedal pulsation indicating brake rotor resurfacing or replacement.


  • Deep rotor rust can lead to decreased performance. Resurfacing or replacement is necessary to restore a smooth, rust-free surface for the brake pads.


  • Visible cracks on the rotor surface, no matter how small, are a serious concern. Even minor cracks can compromise the structural integrity of the rotor and lead to complete failure. Rotor replacement is essential if cracks are present.

BRAKE CALIPERS, BRAKE DRUMS & BRAKE SHOE REPAIRS

Front & Rear Brake Caliper Service


A brake caliper repair is when you replace, service, or repair the brake calipers on your car. Your brake calipers are responsible for distributing pressure to your brake pads and slowing down or stop your vehicle. Generally, brake caliper repairs only require an inspection and service rather than a replacement. Brake calipers usually last throughout several brake pad replacements. A common brake caliper repair is a seized or sticky caliper. This will apply constant pressure against your rotors as you drive wearing both your brake discs and pads.


Rear Brake Shoes & Drum Repair


Brake Shoe Replacement Service: A brake shoe replacement is when you replace your brake shoes (typically at the rear wheels of older model vehicles) that have been worn thin from use. Luckily, brake shoe replacements often only require that you remove your old shoes and then install new ones in their place. It's a no-frills job that our mechanics can do in a short amount of time!


Brake Drum Machining & Replacement Service: When brake drums wear down, they tend to crack and create uneven wear on the inner drum. If this happens, your brake pedal may pulsate. Stop by our brake repair shop to inspect whether you need can have your brake drums machined or replaced.


Before a brake drum repair or replacement, our mechanic will inspect it for cracks, grooves, and any other problems that indicate a bad brake drum. In some cases, a brake drum can be machined. In the event of badly worn drums, a replacement may be necessary. While we have your rear brakes apart, we will also inspect your wheel cylinders as well as your wheel seals to make sure everything is working optimally before we change your brake drum.
