Found a screw in your tyre, or come back to a flat on the drive? We come to you, inspect the tyre properly and tell you honestly whether it can be repaired or needs replacing.
Not every puncture can be repaired. The position and size of the damage, and whether the tyre has been driven on while flat, all affect whether a repair is safe.
Can my puncture be repaired?
In the UK, tyre repairs are guided by the British Standard BS AU 159. In general, a puncture may be repairable if it is in the central area of the tread and below a certain size. Damage to the sidewall or shoulder, or a tyre that has been driven on while flat, usually means a replacement is the safe option.
- Usually repairable: small punctures (such as a nail or screw) in the central tread area
- Usually not repairable: sidewall or shoulder damage, large cuts, bulges
- Driven on while flat: internal damage is likely, so the tyre often needs replacing
Slow punctures
If you keep topping up the same tyre, there may be a slow puncture, a damaged valve or a problem where the tyre seals against the wheel. We can investigate and advise on the right fix.
Puncture Repair: common questions
How do I know if my tyre can be repaired?
We need to inspect it. The location, size and type of damage all matter. We will explain what we find and recommend a repair only if it is safe to do so.
Can you repair a run-flat tyre?
Many manufacturers advise against repairing run-flat tyres, especially if they have been driven on while deflated. Please call with your details and we will advise.
