FAQ About Brake Repair

How often should brake pads be replaced?

Brake pads typically last between 30,000 to 70,000 miles, depending on your driving habits, vehicle type, and brake pad quality. City driving in Pflugerville and Round Rock with frequent stops wears brakes faster than highway driving. Our ASE Certified Brake Masters inspect your brake pad thickness during every service to ensure your safety.

Why do my brakes squeal or make noise?

Brake squealing can be caused by worn brake pads (most have wear indicators that create noise when replacement is needed), glazed pads or rotors, or debris caught between the pad and rotor. Grinding noises typically indicate that pads are completely worn and metal-to-metal contact is occurring, which requires immediate brake repair.

How long does a brake pad change take?

A standard brake pad replacement on all four wheels typically takes 1-2 hours. If rotors need resurfacing or replacement, the service may take 2-3 hours. More complex brake system repairs may require additional time. We always provide time estimates before beginning work.

Do I need to replace rotors with brake pads?

Not always. Rotors can often be resurfaced (machined) if they have adequate thickness remaining. However, if rotors are warped, cracked, or below minimum thickness specifications, replacement is necessary for proper brake performance and safety.

What is the difference between ABS and conventional brakes?

All modern vehicles have conventional hydraulic brakes with the addition of an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). The ABS prevents wheel lock-up during hard braking by rapidly pulsing the brakes, allowing you to maintain steering control during emergency stops. Our technicians are trained to service both conventional brake components and complex ABS systems.
