The visit

How a brake repair goes on the day

  1. Describe the fault

    Send the quote form with your bike type and what the brakes are doing, whether that is squealing, a soft lever or a bike that will not slow down.

  2. Pick a date

    Tell us where the bike is kept and when you need it back on the road, and we arrange a visit around that.

  3. Brakes checked and fixed

    We inspect the pads, cables and braking surfaces at your door, then repair or adjust what is causing the problem.

  4. Tested before we go

    We check the brakes work properly, tell you plainly what was done, and leave you with a bike ready to ride.

Questions

Brake repair questions, answered before you book

Ask us something else

Can you fix brakes on any type of bike?

The quote form covers road, hybrid or commuter, mountain, e-bike and kids bikes, with an Other option for anything else. Pick the closest type and describe what the brakes are doing. That gives us what we need to understand the job before we come out to you.

Where does the brake repair happen?

At the place the bike is kept, anywhere in Bristol and BS postcodes within about 10 miles. You give your location or postcode in the quote form, so there is no need to carry the bike to a shop.

What if I'm not sure what is wrong with my brakes?

Describe what you notice in the form: a squeal, a lever that pulls too far, or a bike that is slow to stop. You do not need the technical name. A plain description is enough to start with, and we take it from there.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes. Pebblewick gives a 3-month guarantee on all work, and that includes brake repairs. The work is done by someone with 12 years of bike shop experience who is Cytech Level 2 qualified, so you know who is looking after your bike.
