Damaged tyre sorted on the spot
Damaged tyre sorted on the spot
on the A40.
Felt a jolt or a sudden pull after a pothole or debris on the A40? Before anything else, get to safety, then call us. Our mobile team comes to your safe spot on A-road routes, checks the casing, and tells you plainly whether the tyre can be repaired or needs replacing.
Getting clear of the traffic matters more than the tyre. If the car still rolls, move onto the hard shoulder, into an emergency refuge area or off at the next junction, put the hazards on and stand behind the barrier away from the lanes. Never try to inspect or change a wheel in a live lane on the A40.
Once you are safe, we take over. Where the damage is a puncture in the tread, we repair it properly on the spot and you keep the tyre. Where a pothole or object has reached the sidewall or shoulder, we replace it, because that flexing part of the casing cannot be trusted with a patch at A-road speeds. Either way you get an honest verdict first.

About the A40
The road we cover.
The A40 runs from central London out through the Westway towards Oxford and the Cotswolds. It passes Acton and Ealing, Hillingdon, Beaconsfield and High Wycombe before reaching Oxford and Witney, meeting the M25 at Denham and the M40 near High Wycombe. It is a fast dual carriageway in the country and a congested urban route in west London.
Wherever you've stopped along it, we assess the damage at the roadside and sort a repair or replacement, rather than have you drive on a tyre that could fail.

Broken down on the A40?
If the tyre is damaged but still holding air, slow down and come off at the next junction. If it's deflating fast, treat it like a blowout and stop somewhere safe straight away.
What drivers say
Rescued at the roadside.
"Life saver. Sudden puncture, hard-to-find tyre. They got back to me within 10 minutes and did a mobile tyre change."

"Outstanding service. From the moment I called to driving away with the tyre repaired was less than an hour, at 7pm on a Sunday while stranded on the M25."

A40 FAQs
Broken Tyre Repair on the A40, answered.
What should I do the moment a tyre goes on the A40?
Keep the car straight, ease off the accelerator and do not brake hard. If it still rolls, guide it onto the hard shoulder, into an emergency refuge or off at the next junction, put your hazards on and get everyone out on the side away from the traffic. Stand behind the barrier if there is one, then call us once you are clear of the lanes on the A40.
Is it safe to keep driving to the next junction on A40?
Only at very low speed and only if the car is controllable and you have no safe stopping point right there. Driving on a flat or split tyre damages it beyond repair and can wreck the wheel too, so the moment you reach a refuge, the hard shoulder or a junction, stop. Then call us out to your safe spot rather than pushing on any further.
Can you repair it, or will I definitely need a new tyre?
Not necessarily a new one. If the damage is a puncture in the central tread and the casing is otherwise sound, we can often repair it on the spot and you keep the tyre. If a pothole or object has reached the sidewall or shoulder, it has to be replaced. We assess it at your safe spot on the A40 and give you a straight answer before any work starts.
Why is sidewall damage never repairable?
The sidewall flexes constantly as the wheel turns, so it takes stress the flat tread never does. No patch or plug is rated to hold in that zone, and at A-road speeds a repaired wall could give way without warning. So any cut, split, bulge or blister in the sidewall means a replacement tyre, with no exceptions we are willing to make.
How do I book and pay?
You pay nothing up front to book. A free enquiry takes about two minutes, then we call back to confirm the price and a time. The final amount depends on whether the tyre can be repaired or needs replacing, and we confirm the price with you at your safe spot before we lift a spanner.
