Assessment Before Repair
A Permanent Repair Requires a Proper Tyre Inspection
The tyre must be removed from the wheel so its internal and external condition can be checked for damage that may not be visible from outside.
Repair or Replacement?
Can Your Tyre Puncture Be Safely Repaired?
Some minor punctures can be repaired, while damage to the shoulder, sidewall or tyre structure may require replacement. The final decision is made only after a complete inspection.
Replacement May Be Required
- The damage is in the shoulder or sidewall area
- There is a cut, bulge, split or other structural damage
- The tyre was driven flat or has hidden internal damage
- The overall tyre condition or manufacturer guidance rules out repair
A Clear Four-Step Process
How Our Mobile Puncture Repair Service Works
We collect the essential details first, arrange mobile attendance and inspect the tyre properly before confirming whether a safe repair can be completed.
Send Your Details
Call or WhatsApp your postcode, vehicle registration, tyre size and a clear tyre photo if one can be taken safely.
Request Confirmed
We review the information, explain the likely service options and confirm the expected arrival window before attendance.
Mobile Attendance
A mobile tyre professional attends the vehicle, removes the tyre from the wheel and checks its internal and external condition.
Repair or Clear Advice
If the tyre is suitable, the puncture is repaired. If it is unsafe to repair, the findings and replacement options are explained first.
More Than an Obvious Flat Tyre
Common Puncture and Pressure-Loss Problems We Assess
Nail or Screw in the Tread
A sharp object may create a rapid or gradual leak. Its position, size and the tyre’s condition determine the next step.
Slow Pressure Loss
A tyre that needs frequent inflation may have a small penetration, sealing problem or another issue requiring inspection.
Valve or Valve-Core Leak
Air loss may come from the valve area rather than a tread puncture. The valve and surrounding components can be checked.
Bead or Wheel-Rim Seal Leak
A leak can develop where the tyre meets the wheel. The source must be identified before the correct remedy is recommended.
Kerb or Pothole Impact
An impact may affect the tyre or wheel and can cause pressure loss. Visible and hidden damage should be properly assessed.
Recurring Leak or Warning
If pressure continues dropping or the warning returns, the tyre, valve and wheel need checking to locate the actual cause.

Common Puncture Questions
Mobile Puncture Repair FAQs
Clear answers about repair suitability, tyre inspection, service costs, arrival timing and what happens if replacement is required.
Can every tyre puncture be repaired?
No. Some minor penetrations within the central tread area may be suitable, but the puncture position, tyre condition and any internal damage must be checked first.
Can a puncture in the sidewall be repaired?
Sidewall and shoulder puncture repairs are generally not approved because they may not restore the tyre’s structural integrity. A replacement tyre may be required after inspection.
Can you repair a slow puncture?
Possibly. Slow pressure loss may come from a small tread penetration, valve issue, wheel-rim sealing problem or other damage. The source must be identified before the correct repair or replacement is recommended.
Does the tyre need to be removed from the wheel?
Yes. A permanent puncture repair requires the tyre to be removed so its internal and external condition can be fully inspected for hidden damage.
Can you confirm a repair from a tyre photo?
A clear photo helps us understand the request, but it cannot confirm that a tyre is safe to repair. The final decision is made only after a proper physical inspection.
What information should I send?
Please send your postcode or live location, vehicle registration or model, tyre size, what happened and a clear tyre photo if it can be taken safely.
How much does mobile puncture repair cost?
The cost depends on the problem, tyre condition, vehicle location and whether repair or replacement is required. Send the request details so the available service option and price can be confirmed.
How quickly can someone attend?
An expected arrival window is confirmed after the request is reviewed. Timing depends on the vehicle location, traffic, service availability and current demand, so we avoid giving an inaccurate fixed promise.
What happens if the tyre cannot be repaired?
The reason repair is unsuitable will be explained. Where available, a suitable replacement option and its cost can then be discussed before any additional work proceeds.
Can I keep driving with a punctured tyre?
If the tyre is visibly flat, losing pressure quickly or damaged, do not continue the journey. Stop in a safe place away from traffic where possible and call for assistance. Any spare wheel or temporary repair kit should only be used according to the vehicle or kit manufacturer’s instructions.
