Brake Repair & Services — B&B Auto Repair
Expert Brake Service Since 1983
Your brakes are the most critical safety system on your vehicle — and one of the most commonly over-sold services at dealerships. Dealership service writers routinely recommend full brake jobs (pads, rotors, calipers, and fluid flush) when all you might need is a simple pad replacement. At B&B Auto Repair, we inspect your entire brake system and tell you exactly what needs attention now, what can wait, and what is still in good condition.
Our ASE Certified technicians measure rotor thickness, check caliper function, inspect brake lines and hoses, and evaluate pad life — giving you an honest assessment based on actual measurements, not a sales quota. Every brake repair at B&B is backed by our 2-Year / 24,000-Mile warranty.
Our Featured Services
Serving Bremerton, Silverdale, and All of Kitsap County
B&B Auto Repair is located at 299 South National Avenue in Bremerton. Drivers from Silverdale, Port Orchard, Poulsbo, Bainbridge Island, Kingston, and the broader Kitsap Peninsula trust us for honest, reliable brake service.
Kitsap County’s steep hills — in Bremerton, Poulsbo, and the roads leading to and from the Narrows Bridge — put extra demand on your brakes. Add wet Pacific Northwest roads to the equation and proper brake maintenance becomes even more important for safe stopping distances.
The B&B Difference: Brakes Done Right
We do not scare you into buying brakes you do not need. We measure, show you the results, and give honest recommendations. When you do need brake work, we use quality parts, perform the work carefully, and back everything with our 2-Year / 24,000-Mile warranty. That approach has earned us AAA Washington Top Shop status and the trust of Kitsap County families for over 40 years.

I appreciate B & B Auto Repair's professionalism and promptness. They have helped me out massively, on a few occasions with my vehicle. Very notably, when I needed a pre-purchase inspection done on a vehicle, they were able to help me same day, though that was not an expected or normal task to add me in so quickly. It made a world of difference to help me through my rough times of having a broken down vehicle and needing to buy another.Posted on Google![]()

We have recently had both my van and my husband's car inspected and repaired by B&B Auto Repair. Both experiences were excellent. The work on my vehicle appears to have resulted in better gas mileage, both highway and local use. B&B just replaced a defective part after several week of use at no cost to me and at my convenience.Posted on Google![]()

How Dealerships Profit From Brake Fear — And What B&B Does Instead
Nothing motivates a quick sale like telling someone their brakes are unsafe. Dealership service departments know this and use it to their advantage. The typical dealership brake quote includes premium-priced pads, rotor replacement (even when rotors can be resurfaced), caliper service, and a fluid flush — often totaling $800–$1,200 per axle.
At B&B Auto Repair, we measure before we quote. We check rotor thickness against minimum specifications, measure pad depth with a gauge (not a glance), test caliper slide pins for proper function, and inspect brake lines for corrosion or cracking. You get a written report showing exactly what was measured and what we recommend — and we differentiate between “needs attention now” and “something to watch.”
Brake Services We Provide
- Brake pad replacement — using quality pads that match your driving style and vehicle
- Rotor resurfacing or replacement — we resurface when possible to save you money
- Caliper service and replacement — stuck or leaking calipers cause uneven wear and reduced stopping power
- Brake fluid flush — moisture-contaminated fluid reduces braking effectiveness, especially in Pacific Northwest humidity
- Brake line and hose inspection — corrosion from Puget Sound salt air can weaken brake lines over time
- ABS diagnosis and repair — anti-lock brake system sensors, modules, and hydraulic units
- Emergency/parking brake service — cable adjustment, shoe replacement, electronic parking brake service

What Our Bremerton Customers Ask Most
Squealing or grinding noises, a pulsating brake pedal, pulling to one side, or a soft pedal feel are all signs your brakes need attention. We provide a measured inspection showing exactly what condition your brakes are in.
Brake repair costs vary by vehicle and what is needed. A straightforward pad replacement might run $200–$350 per axle, while a complete brake job with rotors could be $400–$600 per axle. We provide a clear estimate before starting work — always less than dealership pricing.
We recommend a brake inspection at least once a year or every 12,000 miles. Kitsap County drivers who frequently drive steep hills may benefit from more frequent checks.
If your rotors are above minimum thickness specifications and not severely scored or warped, resurfacing is often a viable and less expensive option. We measure and advise honestly.
Yes. Our technicians diagnose and repair anti-lock brake systems including sensors, modules, and hydraulic units. ABS service is covered by our 2-Year / 24,000-Mile warranty.
