Our Approach To Brakes Servicing
The Tony Allen team’s know-how is a combined effort of experience and practical automotive knowledge. With brakes being an essential part of your car’s safety system, our team takes this task seriously. We provide a comprehensive brake service, from inspection to diagnosis to repairs and testing. Our team of experienced mechanics will make sure your vehicle stops when it should.
Services We Offer
Brake Inspection
If you suspect your car’s brakes may be damaged, we will provide a thorough brake inspection service to identify any potential issues. Our inspections include spongy brake pedal analysis, brake fluid checks and uneven wear checks on brake pads and brake rotors. With a full brake system check, you can be confident your car is reliable and safe.
Brake Repairs
If we find any issues during our complete brake inspection, or if you come to us with pre-identified damage, our experts will repair your system and get everything back into working order. Our services are affordable, consistent and professional on every job we take on. Trusting our experienced technicians assures a reliable driving experience.
Discs Machining
Disc machining restores the surface of your brake discs, removing grooves and uneven wear. This process ensures smooth and even contact between the brake pads and discs, improving braking performance and extending the life of your brakes. It’s a cost-effective solution to keep your braking system in top condition.
Drums Machining
Machining brake drums involves resurfacing the inner drum surface to remove imperfections and restore proper contact with the brake shoes. This service helps eliminate brake noise, vibrations, and uneven braking, providing a smooth and efficient braking experience, especially in vehicles with drum brakes.
Calliper Overhaul
Callipers play a crucial role in your vehicle’s braking system by applying pressure to the brake pads. Over time, callipers can become sticky or seized, reducing braking efficiency. Our calliper overhaul service involves cleaning, rebuilding, and replacing worn components to restore optimal braking performance and ensure your brakes operate smoothly.
Brake Hoses
Brake hoses are responsible for transferring brake fluid from the master cylinder to the braking components at each wheel. Over time, hoses can become brittle, crack, or leak, compromising your braking performance. We inspect and replace worn brake hoses to maintain the integrity and safety of your braking system.
Brake Imbalance
(WOF Requirement)
Brake Pipe Manufacturing
Custom brake pipe manufacturing involves creating brake pipes tailored to your vehicle’s specifications. Whether replacing corroded pipes or installing new ones, we ensure that the brake pipes are properly fitted and meet safety standards, enhancing the reliability and effectiveness of your braking system.
Brake Master Cylinder Rebuilds
The master cylinder is the heart of your vehicle’s braking system, converting pedal pressure into hydraulic force. A faulty master cylinder can lead to spongy brakes or brake failure. Our rebuild service restores the master cylinder’s functionality, ensuring consistent brake pressure and reliable stopping power.
ABS Pump Repair
The ABS pump plays a critical role in preventing wheel lockup during sudden braking by regulating brake pressure. A malfunctioning ABS pump can compromise your vehicle’s safety and braking performance. We offer ABS pump repairs to restore proper function, ensuring your ABS system works effectively under all driving conditions.
Brake Fluid Flushing
Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which can lead to corrosion and reduced braking efficiency. Regular brake fluid flushing removes old, contaminated fluid and replaces it with fresh fluid, maintaining optimal braking performance and prolonging the life of your braking components.

I took my car there to get fixed after I was hit and my rear upper controler arm was bent. They gave me the best estimate, and had the work done super quick! The customer service was amazing, and they were very polite and knowledgable!
I would recommend Car Repair Service to anyone without a doubt! Very professional and reliable. The best customer service and reasonable prices. My go to auto shop from now on!!!
Told them to replace my belt tensioner due to frequent squeaking after replacing my belt. They looked around and said, “nope, take the belt back and ask for a new one under warranty”.. Charged me $12, and after installing a new belt, turns out they were right.
Your Questions Answered
If your brake warning light is on, your vehicle requires immediate brake servicing. Brake servicing is not something that should be put off or ignored. Failing to fix your damaged brakes may result in serious accidents and harm. While it may be clear in some cases that your brakes require servicing, it’s not always easy to know. Sometimes there are less-obvious warning signs that your brakes need attention.
Common signs your brakes need attention include squealing noises, a spongy brake pedal, longer stopping distances, or vibrations when braking. If you experience any of these, it's time to visit a brake specialist near you. Our experts can quickly diagnose and fix the issue to keep you safe on the road.
Brake pad replacement intervals depend on your driving habits and vehicle type but generally range between 30,000 to 70,000 km. Regular checks with our brake and auto service will help ensure your brakes are in top condition and replace worn pads before they become a safety concern.
