Brakes in Sandiacre

Brakes are the job people put off, and the one job where putting it off costs more rather than less.

Pads wear down to the backing plate and then start eating the disc, so a set of pads turns into pads and discs. Catching it at the squeal stage is the cheaper end of the same job.

Bring it in if the pedal feels longer than it did, if the car pulls to one side when you brake, or if there's a grinding noise rather than a squeak. We'll take the wheels off and show you what's left on the pads rather than just telling you.

Brakes are also one of the bigger MOT failure categories, so if the test is coming up it's worth mentioning when you book.

I've been taking my car here for a few years now and never feel I'm being ripped off. Always happy with the work that's been done.
