Our Story...

in 2018 we started out as a small brake shop specializing in on-car brake disc skimming. As our reputation for honest, friendly service grew more and more, some of our customers turned to us for advice on all their car maintenance needs. Our can-do attitude to life and business meant that our brake shop grew into a fully-fledged mechanical workshop. Taking on a wide variety of automotive repairs. We aim to be there for our customers for every step of owning their car. From the oil changes to when it starts making that funny noise, we will be there to take the stress out of repairing and servicing your car.

What some customers say

Helga Botha

I am not one to write reviews, but this is worth mentioning. I have never experienced such great and friendly service. I have been to places where they overcharged just because I am a woman and don’t know much about cars but Norman explained exactly what’s wrong with my car and they immediately tried to accommodate me as soon as possible as they took in to consideration that I am a single mommy and need my car. I will definitely recommend The Cape Brake Co to everyone.  

Affordable Flexible Medical Plans

Took my Landrover in for brakes as I had heard a sound that sounded like worn brake pads. Was greeted in a friendly manner by Josh and they were expecting my vehicle. He said it could take and hour or two. Josh phoned within 30 minutes and advised that the brake pads still had around 50% wear and tear left. He identified the issue and it was not the brakes. Front and back brakes were checked and the car was ready in no time. They did not even charge me for the labour… you simply do not find this level of service anywhere these days. My car will be booked in at the Cape Brake Co when it is time for the the brakes to be done.

Norman and the team at Cape Brake need to be commended!!!
Norman went out of his way to assist with a concise quotation, after actually test driving my car! something I have not had in a while.
Norman pays attention to detail, and explains what needs to be done in a manner that is understood easily. The one thing that impressed me the most, is the number of little things that were also attended to without asking. Thank you for fixing the key, and also for the other odds and ends that you did. I can HIGHLY RECOMMEND NORMAN AND THE TEAM AT CAPE BRAKE!!!!

We'd love to hear from you
