Kerbed or clipped something on the M1? We check the tyre and the alloy at the roadside and sort whatever's needed.

Broken Tyre Repair · M1

Damaged tyre sorted on the spot
on the M1.

Not every knock means a new tyre. We assess the damage and the wheel at the roadside and only replace when safety calls for it, repairing where the standards allow.

Potholes and debris around the smart-motorway sections around Luton and Milton Keynes, the M25 interchange at junction 6a and the long roadworks on the Northamptonshire stretch damage plenty of tyres on the M1. We check the wheel as well as the tyre, because a hard impact can knock both out of true.

  • Damage assessed on the spot: tyre and wheel both checked
  • Repair or replace, honestly: we only replace when safety calls for it
  • Sidewall & bulge experts: we know what is legal and what is not
  • Carried & fitted to you: common sizes stocked on the van

About the M1

The road we cover.

The M1 runs from Staples Corner in north London up to Leeds, and our coverage follows its busy southern stretch to the M6 at Catthorpe. It serves Watford and Hemel Hempstead at junctions 5 to 8, Luton at 10 and 11, Milton Keynes at 13 and 14 and Northampton at 15 and 16, meeting the M25 at junction 6a and the A14 and M6 at the Catthorpe Interchange. It is a major north-south freight and commuter artery, busy day and night with fast-moving heavy traffic.

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.

Stay safe first

Broken down on the M1?

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.

Get off the carriageway

Reach an emergency area, the hard shoulder or the next exit if you safely can, and put your hazards on.

Stand behind the barrier

Leave the vehicle on the passenger side and wait well back. In a live lane, call 999 or National Highways on 0300 123 5000.

Call us

Once you are safe, call and we will come to you on the M1 to damaged tyre sorted on the spot.

"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."

M1 FAQs

Broken Tyre Repair on the M1, answered.

Can you reach me on the M1?
Yes. Get to a safe spot, an emergency area, the hard shoulder or off at the nearest junction, and call us. We cover the M1 across our area and damaged tyre sorted on the spot on the spot.
I hit debris on the M1, do I need a new tyre?
It depends on the damage. A small tread puncture may be repairable, but a sidewall cut, bulge or exposed cord means a replacement, which we carry and fit on the spot.

Get well behind the safety barrier, away from the carriageway, and call 999 or National Highways on 0300 123 5000 if you are in a live lane. Once you are safe, call us and we will come to you.
How quickly can you reach the M1?
Typically within the hour where we can, with same-day and 24-hour callouts. Tell us your direction of travel and the nearest junction or marker post, around serves Watford and Hemel Hempstead at junctions 5 to 8, so we find you fast.
