With 50 years of experience and advanced diagnostic tools, we pinpoint issues quickly and fix them properly so you can drive with confidence.
Signs Your Brakes Need Attention
Brakes wear gradually, so changes can be easy to miss. Look out for:
- Squealing, grinding or metallic scraping noises
- A soft or long pedal travel
- Steering wheel vibration when braking
- The car pulling left or right under braking
- Brake warning light on the dashboard
- Burning smell after heavy braking
- Increased stopping distances
If you notice any of the above, avoid long journeys and book an inspection as soon as possible.

We carry out complete brake system checks and repairs using quality parts and the right procedures for your vehicle. Our typical brake work includes:
- Brake pad and disc replacement

Every job is measured against manufacturer guidance, and we will always explain what we find before any work goes ahead.
Advanced ABS And Brake Diagnostics
Modern braking systems rely on electronics as much as hardware. If you’re seeing ABS or traction control warnings, we can help. Our team uses up to date diagnostic equipment to read fault codes, test sensors and verify live data. We also have dedicated tools for VAG and BMW vehicles and work confidently on all other makes and models. This approach lets us separate a simple wear item from an electrical or hydraulic problem, so you only pay for what’s actually needed.
