Braking system

We have had the problems with our brakes since June 2014
At start of day the brakes work satisfactory, then by the end of the day, we have to put our foot to floor for the truck to enable us to stop.
We changed our master cylinder in September, then recently we changed our brake drums and shoes.
Soon after we changed drums, the problem arose again
Our mechanics believe its our master cylinder again.
After 9 months???
