A professional puncture repair is one of the cheapest jobs in motoring, and far less than a new tyre. Exact prices vary by location and tyre, but the key point is simple: if your puncture is repairable to standard, repairing it costs a fraction of replacement. That's why a proper inspection always comes first.
What you're paying for
A correct repair isn't a 30-second plug. It includes removing the wheel, taking the tyre off the rim, inspecting the inside for hidden damage, fitting an internal patch-plug to BS AU 159, refitting and rebalancing. That labour is what you pay for, and it's what makes the repair safe and permanent.
Repair vs new tyre
Because a new tyre can cost many times more than a repair, checking for a repair is always worthwhile, unless the tyre is near the end of its life anyway. See our guide to new tyre costs for comparison.
Mobile vs garage
A garage repair means driving there on a doubtful tyre and waiting. A mobile repair comes to you, no recovery truck, no waiting room, and often the same response time. See how mobile and garage fitting compare.
