30+ Years Experience Realigning & Refurbishing Brakes
Jim Jack Services Ltd has its roots traced back to 1993 when it was initially established as Jim Jack Services & Distribution. This move came about as a response to the closure of Ferodo’s Cumbernauld branch.
Jim Jack, the former manager of Ferodo in Scotland, took the initiative to create a more compact facility located at Tannoch Place in Cumbernauld. Leveraging his former Ferodo staff and workshop equipment, he ensured the continuity of an industrial brake relining facility in Scotland.
From that point onward, we’ve been dedicated to relining brakes and clutches for customers across the entire UK.

Anytime, Any Place, Any Brake
Our 24/7 emergency on-call service may not see frequent use, but when it’s needed, we’re there to meet our customers’ demands.
As a small business, we operate like a tight-knit family, with each staff member playing a role in every brake reline or clutch reline project we undertake. During busy periods, especially with substantial brake band reline jobs, all team members don their overalls and pitch in. We manage to maintain a consistent turnover rate for our smaller jobs in the workshop, even if it means starting early and finishing late. This dedication stems from our team’s conscious effort to extend the same high level of professionalism to all our customers, ensuring an outstanding brake and clutch relining service for each and every one.
