What do brake repair services include?

You can never overstate the importance of your car's brake system. That's why it's vital that your brakes be inspected as soon as you notice them vibrating, grinding, or leaking fluid. Brake repair services include checking your car's brake system and diagnosing the problem, repairing and replacing your brake pads or any other defective parts, and testing the new one to make sure it's working right.

All you have to do is choose your preferred date and time and wait for your Tasker to arrive, ready for any repair services you may need which can include:

Brake Checks

From brake pads and rotors to brake callipers, your Tasker will first inspect the various parts that make up your brake system. Don't forget to mention all of your car’s issues-—whether it's a weird noise, a burning smell, or a difference in braking performance. After the inspection, they'll report to you regarding the condition of your current brake parts. Should any of them need repair or replacement, your brake specialist will thoroughly explain to you the process so you can have peace of mind knowing you’re receiving the right repair service your car needs.

Brake Repairs

Brake repairs depend heavily on what brake components need refurbishing and replacement. Your Tasker can replace worn brake pads, resurface thin brake discs, repack wheel bearings, flush old brake fluid, and replace drums, rotors, and other brake hardware. Whatever your car needs, trust that your brake repair service will be completed promptly while ensuring the highest levels of safety and quality.

Brake Tests

A test drive is crucial after any brake job is completed. Your Tasker will check if your brake system is operating properly and all defects have been corrected. Another reason why a test drive must be performed is to "break-in" the pads to the rotors and establish an even layer of friction material. This increases the life of the rotor and ensures high brake performance. Once everything is properly inspected and no other faults are found, it's all systems go and you're now ready to get back on the road!
