Brakes Plus, a full‑service auto‑repair franchise, announced that construction on its new Denton facility will commence on Dec. 1, 2026. The project, approved by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, is expected to wrap up exactly one year later, on Dec. 1, 2027.

Project scope and investment

The planned shop will occupy nearly 5,000 square feet and is estimated to cost $1.5 million. The investment reflects Brakes Plus’ confidence in Denton’s growing population and its demand for reliable vehicle maintenance services. The company’s website lists a range of offerings, including brake repair, oil changes, tire services, and comprehensive diagnostics.

Local impact

City officials anticipate that the new location will create construction‑phase jobs and, once operational, a handful of full‑time positions for technicians, service advisors, and support staff. The addition of another auto‑service provider aligns with Denton’s broader economic development goals, which aim to attract businesses that serve both residents and the region’s commuter traffic.

Community response

Local business groups have welcomed the project, noting that a modern auto‑shop can reduce the need for residents to travel to neighboring cities for specialized repairs. While the announcement has not sparked any controversy, community members are encouraged to stay informed about construction schedules and any temporary traffic adjustments that may arise.

Next steps

Brakes Plus will post updates on its progress as the build moves forward. The company plans to hold a grand opening event once the facility is ready, inviting Denton residents to explore the new services and meet the staff. For more information, interested parties can visit the Brakes Plus website or contact the Denton planning department.

Community Impact will continue to monitor the development and provide further details as they become available.
