Any place to get rotors turned in Dublin/pleasanton/livermore?

I was looking at doing my brakes sometime soon and was wondering if anybody knows of a good place around the the Dublin/ Pleasanton/ Livermore area that does brake rotors. I don't think they need it but i'd rather be in the know that to have my car appart and realize they need to be done. Thanks!

I had the same question a few weeks ago... somebody on FB suggested a shop in Dublin/Pleasanton near Edge Motorworks but I wasn't able to figure out where it was or contact them so I went with another place all the way in Brentwood that @OmarYasin helped me out with LOL. Basically you need to find a machine shop it seems most auto repair shops won't take in loose rotors anymore, unless you are bringing the car in for a brake job. A lot of shops will just advise you to buy new rotors as they are relatively cheap.

I have 82,000 miles on my stock rotors (including tons of autoX) and they still have plenty of life left.

South Bay I will always go to A&M Motor Supply in Los Gatos, bit of a trek for you though but good for reference.

Edit: could make a lunch trip out of it on a weekend, drop 'em off, grab a bite enjoy the area pick 'em up and head home.
