T & T Brake Service Inc

I’ve had my car for quite a few years and I’ve had the breaks done in the back just pads and it was almost $ 300. I went to T&T because of the reviews and years ago when I had an issue with my parking brake for an inspection the place I went to referred me to T&T they were fully booked so I ended up somewhere else. I do remember the tech told me that they refer all of their brake customers there. I’m glad I remember and glad I went to T&T. I had needed new rotors in the front and a cylinder replaced in the back because they didn’t need to be changed. The thing that I really appreciate about T&T is they are so honest. They gave me a great price for what I needed and the work was done quickly. I asked about an oil change but again honest and advised they aren’t the cheapest but they could do it. I appreciated that. It’s only been 2 days but I have already recommended two of my friends who need brake service. They are the real deal a family owned business that are my new break specialist.

Normally I visit a place more than once before writing a 5 star review, but I found out my father in law has been going to this place for 20+ years. The employees even knew him by name and what kind of car he has. He’s had great experiences, and he’s a cheap ****ard, so I trust his judgement.
My experience: Brakes making noise. Check engine light on. Dropped off at 7, they were done at 8: something. Their advice: Brakes are safe. If you can handle the annoying noise, the rotor will need to be replaced with the next pad change, but if it were my car, I’d wait about another 12 000 miles then change the pads and rotors; we’ll try to salvage the rotors but they’re getting pretty thing so you can decide at that point. The check engine light: based on the readings blah blah blah, but don’t worry about it; I cleaned off the sensor, give it a few days and let me know if it comes back on and we’ll take a closer look, but based on that reading this usually fixes it.
Charge: $ 0.00. Business decision: Excellent, because now I’ll probably be a 20+ year customer as well.
I think they may have even washed the car? It looks cleaner to me.
Tip: Call first. The reason they’re so fast is they only schedule a certain number of cars per day so that your car doesn’t sit on the lot for half a day to a day before getting looked at (which is what happens at most places)

We took my hubby’s car in to have its brakes checked out, not knowing whether it would be a couple hundred dollars or over a thousand. We picked T & T because the reviews here (though not many) sounded ‘real’ and searching the web, we could only find good comments, no BBB complaints etc.
We got an appointment quickly, dropped the car off, got a call an hour or so later from Joe saying that only our front brakes needed work, the pads were almost gone but they could reuse the rotors etc. He said we could probably wait another 10−12k miles to work on the back brakes. Total price was under $ 225.
Additionally, they told us our battery was a bit weak and should be replaced, but that honestly we could probably get it done cheaper elsewhere than for what they could charge. While we were picking the car up, there was another gentleman picking up his car who was telling us he has been a customer here for about 20 years and how great a shop it is. I was impressed at their honesty and lack of attempt to upsell us. They’ve earned a customer for as long as we live here. Thanks, Joe!

We trust this family run business, and have for years, we take all of our cars here for everything they do (Much more than just brakes, not paint & body) since I moved to Arlington and found them over 20 yrs ago. Reasonable prices, fair, knowledgable, honest and caring!!!

Joe has been working on my cars for quite a while now. He’s very reasonably priced and extremely knowledgeable. I’ve never experienced the horror stories associated with mechanics who demand that you need all sorts of extra services.
A trip to T&T usually needs a phone call first. His shop can get pretty busy from what I’ve seen. For scheduled maintenance and minor problems, this is easy enough to work around. For emergencies and break downs, I’ve had my car towed to the shop and left the keys in the drop box. He can usually get to it in a timely manner. If he can’t, he can tell you who to take it to that would work on it in a way he trusts.
In particular, I have a square body Suburban that he’s saved me on several times. He seems to be one of the few left around who still knows the ins, outs, and quirks of the older vehicles.
This is the first place I recommend any time someone asks me about a good, trustworthy mechanic.
