Brake maintenance and repair in Lewisville
Proper brake care is essential for vehicle safety and predictable handling. At Mayo Automotive LLC we focus on accurate inspection, reliable repairs, and clear communication so you understand necessary work and costs up front.
What we inspect during a brake service
When your vehicle is brought in, our technicians perform a systematic inspection that covers mechanical wear, hydraulic function and electronic systems where applicable. Items checked include:
- Brake pad and rotor condition — thickness, surface quality and runout.
 - Brake calipers and hardware — operation, seized components and leaks.
 - Brake fluid level and condition — contamination or moisture that reduces boiling point.
 - Brake hoses and lines — signs of age, cracks or soft spots.
 - Parking brake operation and cable condition.
 - Anti-lock brake system sensors and related wiring for obvious faults.
 
Common brake services offered
We handle a range of brake work, from routine maintenance to component replacements and system diagnostics:
- Pad replacement using quality friction materials matched to your driving needs.
 - Rotor resurfacing or replacement to restore smooth contact and eliminate vibration.
 - Caliper service or replacement when sliding pins or pistons are compromised.
 - Brake fluid exchange to restore hydraulic reliability and prevent corrosion.
 - Full-line inspection and repair for older vehicles where hoses or master cylinders need replacement.
 - ABS light diagnosis and targeted repairs when the system logs faults.
 
How we determine the right course of action
Recommendations are based on objective measurements and the vehicle's service history. We present repair options with clear pricing and explain the trade-offs between repair, replacement and preventive maintenance so you can decide confidently.
Safety and quality standards
Technicians follow manufacturer service procedures where available. Replacement parts meet or exceed factory specifications and installations are verified with road testing when required. Our shop uses calibrated tools to measure rotor runout and pad wear, and we document repairs for your records.
Pricing and transparency
We provide upfront estimates. If additional issues are found during service, we contact you with options and cost implications before proceeding. This approach reduces surprises and ensures the work done aligns with your expectations.
Preparing your vehicle for a brake appointment
To make service efficient:
- Bring any recent service records if available.
 - Tell us about noises, pedal feel, or warning lights you've noticed.
 - Allow time for diagnostics — some issues require test drives or extended inspections.
 
Frequently asked questions
Q: How long will a brake pad replacement take?
        A: Typical pad replacement can be completed in about one to two hours depending on vehicle type and whether rotors are replaced or resurfaced.
Q: Is it necessary to replace rotors when changing pads?
        A: Rotors are evaluated on thickness and surface condition. If they are within specification and can be surface-ground to restore a flat surface, resurfacing may be a cost-effective choice. If below minimum thickness or warped, replacement is recommended.
Q: What does a brake fluid exchange accomplish?
        A: It removes contaminated fluid that can absorb moisture and lower performance, restoring better pedal feel and reducing the risk of corrosion within the hydraulic system.
