I’m with you until this part. I’d say a reputable, well-informed shop will not turn rotors as a matter of course. The fact is, rotor resurfacing is often not necessary. It was a routine part of a quality brake job in the past, when it was an important factor in avoiding brake noise, but things have changed. With modern premium pads, noise is hardly ever an issue.
Many (most?) vehicle manufacturers specifically instruct to NOT resurface or replace rotors UNLESS they have particular problems. For example, GM says to resurface ONLY if one or more of the following conditions is present:
-Groove depth of .060" or more
-Severe scoring of the rotor braking surface
-Corrosion or pitting that is deeper than the rotor braking surface
-Brake pulsation caused by excessive lateral runout or excessive rotor thickness variation
My experience is that reusing serviceable rotors without resurfacing in conjuntion with premium pads yields a fine result. As a bonus, rotor life is maximized by not cutting its surface, and break-in is super-quick because the rotor surface is already infused with pad material.
