    What is a brake shop receipt?

    An brake shop receipt is proof of payment you give the customer AFTER they pay. It confirms the amount paid, the date, and the work performed — useful for warranty claims and tax records.

    What every brake shop receipt should include

    • Pad thickness measurements
    • Rotor min-spec check
    • Fluid moisture test
    • Bed-in instructions
    • Warranty (life-of-pad)

    Brake shop receipt FAQ

    Do I charge sales tax on brake repair work?

    Most US states tax parts/materials but exempt labor. Use Glo Invoice's per-line tax toggle so each brake repair line item is taxed correctly. Check your state — a few (HI, NM, SD, WV) tax services too.

    Should I always replace rotors?

    If under min-spec, mandatory. Otherwise customer's call — document refusal.

    Are ceramic pads worth it?

    Less dust, quieter, lasts longer. Offer as the upsell line item.
