No, we operate on a first come, first serve basis, so there’s no need to book an appointment. However, if you prefer, we also accept bookings for your convenience. Just drop by or schedule a time that works best for you!

Squeaking can be caused by worn brake pads, while grinding usually indicates that the brake pads are completely worn out and the metal parts are rubbing against each other.

A spongy brake pedal can indicate air in the brake lines, a brake fluid leak, or worn brake pads. It’s important to have this checked as soon as possible.

If the brake warning light comes on, check the brake fluid level first. If it’s low bring it in and we can add the appropriate fluid. If the light remains on or if the fluid level is normal, we will need to inspect your brakes.

This can be caused by uneven brake pad wear, a stuck caliper, or issues with the brake fluid. It can also be due to problems with the vehicle’s alignment or suspension.
