Brake services

Brakes only — it's all we do, so there's nothing else to upsell you.

Brake pads

Premium ceramic pads, front or rear axle, hardware included.

Rotors

We install new rotors instead of resurfacing old ones — better stopping, no warp comebacks.

Calipers

Seized or leaking calipers replaced on site, brakes bled and tested.

Brake fluid flush

Full system flush with fresh fluid; old fluid captured and recycled properly.

Electronic parking brakes

Newer vehicles with EPB need a scan tool for rear brake service — we have dealer-level equipment most mobile techs don't.

Brake warning lights & ABS

Full electronic diagnostics for ABS and brake system faults, with a written diagnosis.

Why Fairfax Brakes

Most mobile brake outfits stop at pads and rotors. We're built for the cars people actually drive now.

Newer cars welcome

Electronic parking brakes, brake-by-wire, ABS faults — we carry dealer-level diagnostic equipment, so the vehicles other mobile techs turn away are the ones we specialize in.

You see everything

Pad measurements before you approve. Old parts in your hand after. If something doesn't need replacing, we tell you — and the bill goes down, not up.

One technician, every time

Locally owned and operated. The person who quotes your job is the person who turns the wrenches — not a call center.

Fast answers

Quotes by text in minutes during business hours, not "we'll contact you within 24 hours." Same-day and next-day appointments are common.

Common questions

How do I know if I need new brake pads or rotors?

Grinding, squealing, a soft or vibrating brake pedal, or a brake warning light are the most common signs. We offer a free inspection with no obligation to buy anything — we'll tell you honestly if you're fine to wait.

Do you use OEM or aftermarket parts?

We install quality aftermarket pads and rotors matched to your exact make and model. If you have a preference or want to supply your own parts, just ask when you request your quote.

How long does the appointment take?

Most single-axle jobs (front or rear) take about an hour. Front and rear together usually run about two hours. We'll give you a time estimate with your quote.

What if you find something else wrong once you're there?

We'll tell you and give you a price before doing any additional work — never a surprise on the invoice. Your quote is exact and final for the job you approved.

Can you work on cars with an electronic parking brake or ABS light on?

Yes — this is one of the main things that sets us apart. We carry dealer-level scan tools for EPB and ABS diagnostics that most mobile brake techs don't have.

What's your warranty?

12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first, on parts and labor.

Do I need to be home during the appointment?

No, as long as we can access the vehicle and you're reachable by phone or text if anything comes up.

What areas do you serve?

Fairfax and the surrounding Northern Virginia area, including Fairfax Station, Burke, Centreville, Chantilly, Vienna, Oakton, Annandale, Springfield, Falls Church, Reston, Herndon, McLean, and Tysons.
