Excellent service.

Excellent service from start to finish. Callipers look great in the gunmetal grey paint, all new rubber seals and three new pistons fitted car now stops better than ever and uses less fuel now the brakes are not binding. Thank you for an excellent service.

This is the second occasion we have…

This is the second occasion we have used BCS, this time for a repaint on a pair of front calipers off our Transit. Oliver again could not have been more helpful, and the service is at the same excellent level as it was before. Happy to award them five stars.

Caliper refurbishment a great option

I decided to try Brake Caliper Specialists (BCS) to refurbish a sticking caliper on my Mercedes rather than buy a new one. The advantages I saw were a much lower cost compared to buying another Mercedes OEM caliper and also less waste and environmental impact. I was not disappointed as the refurbished caliper was every bit as good as a new one. New functional parts and seals were fitted throughout including a new piston and the quality of the new paint finish really transformed the look of the unit on the car. The end product is effectively full refurbishment to effectively as good as new. The service I received was excellent at every step. I chose to drop off the caliper at BCS and chatting to them in person gave me every confidence that these people really know exactly what needs to be done with any caliper issue.
As regards timeliness I dropped off my caliper late on a Monday afternoon and received it back by Parcelforce delivery on Friday morning. Considering the process the caliper goes through I think that is a really good effort. E-mails are sent at every step to keep you informed as to when your caliper will be depatched back to you. Overall the service was excellent and I highly recommend BCS as an excellent alternative to buying new calipers especially if you prefer keeping the OEM parts as opposed to replacing them with cheap pattern parts which often do not work out well. Five stars on all aspects of this transaction.

BCS excellent service and wonderful quality of work

BCS were very clear from the start on how my calipers would be serviced and refinished. Their quick estimate and advice on how best to ship the calipers to them was helpful and Tegan and Marc are always on hand to help with any queries. Excellent service all round.

Most importantly of course is the quality of the work which has been exceptional. The calipers work flawlessly, and the new finish is better than from the factory. Completely recommend BCS and will definitely use them again.

Brake caliper refurb - excellent service

Delighted with BCS for their refurbishment works on my calipers. Excellent outcome, a good original price and very reasonable cost for the essential additional works (seized bolts and scored pistons), all topped off with excellent communication throughout from Tegan. Thanks all at BCS - happy to recommend you to others. Rgds Alan (944 S2).

The truthful facts.

The mechanical and cosmetic side of the work carried out is excellent, not to mention lifetime guarantee and swift turn around time.! I love my F-Type Jag and only the best is good enough when it comes down to my beloved vehicle, the finish and performance of the calipers can only be described as brilliant. I genuinely appreciate the work you guys did. My sincere thanks to you all BCS.

Best in the business!

Top company to deal with, great customer support and communication from the start.
My caliber rebuild has come back better than new with a fantastic finish, I got standard gunmetal grey as it matches the car better but in hindsight I should have spent the extra and got a colour done
Excellent from start to finish
New calipers from Mercedes are over£1000each I got 2 fully remanufactured painted for less than £300
Can’t recommend this company highly enough!
Tegan is a godsend she can’t help you enough
First class !!

Excellent work from BCS as usual!!

Not only was the work done quickly and too an excellent standard - so good in fact that the mechanic fitting the refurbished and smoothed calipers commented on how great they look and how smooth they now were, communication, speed of work and value for money excellent, this is the third time I’ve used BCS and they’ve consistently exceeded my expectations!
