CH Topping

Anything to do with brakes — this is the place! CH Topping are brake specialists. Vince and the rest of the staff at CH Topping in Long Beach are amazing at what they do. They use quality parts, go above and beyond to get things done right. They work on just about every type of vehicle and can do customized/​difficult jobs. They have very fair pricing and are very ethical in all they do. I highly recommend them.
When it comes to stopping choose CH Topping!

First heard of this place from some olé time hot rodders. Needless to say they do amazing work. My 65 GTO stops like never before. Great group of people, and easy to talk to. Came back today and had my Tundra done. Dealer said i had 3% 6 months ago, came in and they said i had about 30%, I went with a upgraded pad and couldn’t be happier.
You won’t go wrong here, they have my vote!!!

The guys at CH Topping are absolute experts about everything to do with brakes. I’ve been getting my brake service on all of my cars (personal and company) for the past 8 years and I refer many clients and friends for service as well. You won’t find a more honest and ethical business, which is very refreshing. There have been a couple of times that I’ve taken a car in for evaluation and the owner tells me that there is either nothing wrong, or that it is a simple fix. When repairs are performed, I find that their prices are always more than reasonable, and significantly less than I would pay at a dealer. I ‘ve seen classic cars and specialty trucks and RV’s in the shop on my visits, so they specialize in brakes for all types of vehicles.

Great company if you need brakes. I have sent my wife, daughter and friends. Everybody is very happy. If you don’t need breaks they will tell you. You can trust them!

Honest, incredibly knowledgable family owned business. Have known these guys for 30+ years and can’t say enough good things about their work. Quick turn around time and know all types of cars. Turned around my 1947 Cadillac in a day. If you baby your car and are as picky as I am, you need to give these guys a call.

CH Topping is the place in so. Cal to have your brakes repaired. The owner/​Vince and his crew are amazing professionals. Prices are well under dealers, you will leave knowing that your brakes are safe. If you can get a chance stop by before you have a brake problem. Take a tour his shop, you will be impressed with the «type» cliental that uses a quality brake provider.

Lets start with the word «Honest», it is refreshing to hear a expert talk about your car like it is a patient in a emergency room. Vince provides straight talk when it comes to a important component of safety, your brakes. On our Audi, he used factory parts and still saved us big, compared to the dealer. It is fun just to go by his shop and see the exotics…

Hell yeah, these guys are the greatest. Helped me with the brake system on my Datsun 510.

We have many vintage cars (some quite obscure) and CH Topping is the only brake shop we will have work on them. Honest and fair pricing, knowledgable and excellent work are the reasons we have such complete faith in them. It’s great to make cars go… but more important that they stop… and stop well. Its our first stop for any car we buy to make sure it stops safely. They have customers drive in from Arizona to have them work on their cars. I highly recommend.

I was referred to C.H.Topping to have my brakes checked on a 2005 VW Toureg. I had a brake light check on the dash. I talked to Vinnie and he was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. He called me as soon as he could verify if both the front and rear brakes needed to be replaced (and if the rotors were affected or not). Only the front brake pads and sensors needed to be repllaced. He also recommended a brake fluid flush (which I have never had done since I’ve owned the car — oops!) Frank and Vince were also very nice. When I picked up the car Vinnie showed me the brake pad and sensor he removed from my car. I wasn’t too sure what to excpect when I went there, but once I was inside and spoke to the staff, I was confident that they would do a good job. They were reasonably priced, compared to the VW dealership. Front end brake pad change at dealership was about $ 200 MORE! Try these guys! They are very professional and specialize in brakes!

CH Topping is the best there is in brakes and service. I have been using them for more than 10 years. I used to go to Toyota but my brakes never last. CH Topping made my brakes a lot better and it last 2 to 3 times the Toyota dealer brakes because Vince, the owner, only used the best quality materials. Recently the Lexus dealer told me that I need to change my brake for like $ 1100. Vince’s son told me that it will cost only about $ 500 but I do not need one.

The best!
I had some braided brake lines made for my 1959 Austin A-​40. Also had some brake cylinders sleeved for the same application. Awesome price for great long lasting work.
BTW: I was referred by a Rolls Royce dealership. The service guy told me a little secret. They use Topping often, and for almost everything!
Happy Motoring!
UPDATE ⁰³⁄₂₀₁₂:
Several years later, my brake lines are intact and like new inside and out (don’t think I didn’t pull them to check either). Cylinders are also still like new.
CHT,
YOU REALLY ARE THE BEST!
