To brake or not to brake….

Your Brakes

Call (252)629-2353 to schedule an appointment! — Don’t wait until you need to stop to find out what those noisy brakes were about!

For most of us the only time we think of our brakes is when we have to hit them quickly to avoid a wreck, or when we push them and they don’t want to work. There is more to it than just the pedal and pads though.

Call now to schedule an appointment! — Here is a sample of a simple brake system. Not so simple is it?

When I ask my nieces about brakes they say I push the pedal and the car stops, and there is some brake pads in there somewhere because Uncle Mark just changed them. That is all they really care about because that is all they see. If you want to learn a little more click here to find out more: How your brake system works.

The most common brake systems use either a disk brake or drum brake to stop your wheels from turning.

These are what are commonly found on most cars and trucks. Pads and rotors are found on disk brakes, while drum and shoes on a drum brake.

We can repair your entire braking system!

Not just pad replacement!

Just call for an appointment! — When the road gets rough, call in the best to smooth it out. Lift kit, new tires, and a few other upgrades and repairs.

Even though it is not rocket science, it is coming closer every year. There is more to your brakes than what my nieces know. With ABS systems, regenerative braking, and more technology constantly changing, our our guys are continually training. This level of dedication is so they can repair all of your braking systems, even those on hybrid and electric vehicles.

Call now for service! — Like everything else on your trailer, we can fix your electric brakes as well!

We have been right where you are – on the side of the road wonder how in the world will we fix this. We did it for ourselves – how can we ever forget Nevada… – so we can do it for you.

And boy, do we have some stories!

This is a picture from our first camping trip to Tennessee.

“Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Value”

A wonderful family business. On time and go the extra mile to make sure your back on the road safe and sound. Thank you Mark. You have to be proud of all your family and employees. Kimberly and Malissa and Nicole . Thank you for all your help. The only place to take your car truck. Or RV. They treat you like family.

“I am so thankful for Mark…”

and his family. We were passing through the area on our way to Roanoke Rapids when our Trailblazer broke down. We are from Pennsylvania and we were stuck almost an hour from our campsite. They went above and beyond for us. They made sure that we made it to our campsite safely and fixed the Trailblazer as quickly as possible to get us back on the road to home. I can’t stop thinking about how well they treated us and the patience, professionalism, and kindness they showed toward us. They are wonderful and I am so grateful for their assistance!
