Safe, reliable brake repairs in Norwich - don't ignore the warning signs, let our experts help.
Your brakes are the single most important safety system on your vehicle, and they deserve expert attention from technicians you can trust. At Norwich Tyres & Auto Service, we take brake repairs seriously. Our qualified technicians carry out thorough brake inspections and repairs on all makes and models of cars, vans and 4x4s from our Ber Street garage in Norwich NR1 3ES. We serve drivers throughout Norwich, Norfolk, and surrounding areas including Wymondham, Long Stratton, Attleborough, and Dereham. If your brakes don't feel right, don't delay - a prompt inspection could prevent a much more expensive repair, or worse, a dangerous situation on the road.
We carry out a full range of brake work including brake pad replacements, brake disc replacements, calliper repairs and replacements, brake fluid changes, and handbrake adjustments. All brake components we fit are sourced from quality suppliers and meet or exceed the original manufacturer's specifications, giving you complete confidence that the job has been done properly. We never cut corners on safety-critical work - if we spot additional wear or identify a secondary issue while working on your brakes, we'll always explain what we've found, show you if possible, and give you a clear, honest quote before any additional work is carried out.
Brake problems tend to deteriorate quickly and can become significantly more expensive to fix if left unaddressed. Common warning signs include a squealing or grinding noise when braking, a spongy or pulsating pedal, the car pulling to one side under braking, or an illuminated brake warning light on your dashboard. If you've noticed any of these symptoms, call us on 07933 900901 to arrange a brake inspection at our Norwich garage. In the majority of cases we can carry out brake repairs the same day, meaning you're safely back on Norfolk's roads without a lengthy wait.
When you bring your vehicle in for a brake inspection or repair at our Norwich garage, we start with a thorough visual and physical check of the entire braking system - pads, discs, callipers, brake lines, master cylinder, and brake fluid condition. We'll give you a clear verbal explanation of our findings and a written quote before any work begins. For straightforward pad replacements, we usually have the most common brake components in stock and can complete the work within an hour or two, getting you back on the road the same day.
If your brake discs are worn or scored, we'll advise you on whether a full replacement is required. We always recommend replacing pads and discs together on the same axle to ensure even braking performance and to prevent premature wear of fresh components. After completing any brake work, we carry out a careful road test to confirm everything is operating correctly before handing your vehicle back. Your safety is our absolute priority, and we won't return a vehicle to the road until we're completely satisfied with the result of our work.

Common warning signs include a squealing or grinding noise when braking, a spongy or soft brake pedal, the car pulling to one side when you brake, increased stopping distances, or a brake warning light appearing on your dashboard. If you notice any of these, bring your vehicle into our Norwich garage as soon as possible for a free brake inspection.
Not always, but it's often recommended. If your brake pads have worn down to the point where they've scored the discs, both will usually need replacing together. Our technicians will inspect both components and advise you honestly on what's needed - we'll never recommend unnecessary work.
A straightforward brake pad replacement typically takes around 45-90 minutes. If discs or callipers also need replacing, allow 2-3 hours. We'll give you a realistic timeframe when you drop your vehicle off, and we often carry common brake components in stock for faster turnaround.
