Brent Gardens roadside assistance: the short version
- Brent Gardens is three buildings: the high-rise at 4353 Halifax St and the low-rise buildings at 4363 and 4373 Halifax St. Tell us which one.
- The underground parkade is secured. Someone needs to open the gate or meet us at the entrance.
- Guest parking is the easiest spot for us to reach. If the car can be driven there safely, move it.
- If the car has to be towed out from below ground, we plan the truck first. See wheel lift towing at Brent Gardens.
- The price is confirmed before any work. Ask for it here.
Who handles roadside assistance at Brent Gardens on Halifax St?
Rescue Towing. Brent Gardens is a concrete strata built by Bosa Development in 1983, with 334 units under strata plan NWS2036, according to the Brent Gardens building profile. Many residents leave a car in the building for days at a time, which is hard on batteries. We come to the stall, boost or unlock the car, and confirm the price first through our Brentwood roadside assistance service.
Listings do not agree on what neighbourhood Brent Gardens is in. One puts it in the Brentwood Park sub-area, while the liv.rent page for the complex calls it Willingdon Heights. For roadside help it does not matter: Halifax St, with Buchanan St, Rosser Ave and Madison Ave close by, is squarely in our area. Halifax St also forms the north edge of the planned Buchanan West area, so the lots to the south are covered on our Buchanan West roadside assistance page.
The tower at 4353 Halifax St is listed at 24 or 25 storeys depending on the source, and the two low-rise buildings sit beside it. Residents shop at the nearby Costco, Home Depot, London Drugs, Save-On-Foods and Winners, and a flat or a dead battery can happen in any of those lots too. If the car is past a roadside fix, light duty towing from Brent Gardens takes it to the shop you pick.
Guest parking deserves a word. The complex has guest stalls as well as the secured underground parkade, and a car in a guest stall is the simplest kind of call for us to set up. If you are a visitor whose car will not start after an evening at a friend's place, tell us the building number and the colour and make of the car so we can spot it. Our Madison Centre roadside page covers the office building nearby.

Common roadside assistance calls at Brent Gardens
What we expect to see at a long-established strata with secured parking and guest stalls.
Battery after a long sit
A car parked for a week or two underground can drain flat. We boost it at the stall and check that it holds a charge.
Keys left inside
It happens while unloading groceries in the parkade. We open the door without damage once you show the car is yours.
Flat in guest parking
Visitors sometimes come back to a soft tire. We fit the spare or air it up so you can reach a tire shop.
No-start before the school run
If the car will not start before the drive to Holy Cross Elementary or École Alpha Secondary, tell us so we know the timing matters to you.
Brent Gardens roadside assistance questions
Can a tow truck fit into the Brent Gardens parkade?
There is no published height for it, so we check before sending a truck. Boosts and lockouts use smaller gear. If a tow is needed, a flatbed from Brent Gardens can take the car once it is brought up to street level.
I am visiting a friend in the low-rise at 4373 Halifax St. Can you come?
Yes. Tell us you are in guest parking and give the building number. You do not need to be a resident.
Is Brent Gardens in Brentwood Park or Willingdon Heights?
Sources differ, but it changes nothing for roadside help. We cover both, including roadside assistance in Willingdon Heights.
My car is in the parkade at 4363 Halifax St and the battery is dead. Should I move it?
No. We boost it where it is if the cables reach. Pushing a car on a parkade ramp is not safe, so leave it in the stall.
Do you come at night?
Yes, 24 hours. A late parkade call still needs someone to open the gate for us.
Will I know the price first?
Yes. It is always confirmed before work starts.
