"Life saver. Sudden puncture, hard-to-find tyre. They got back to me within 10 minutes and did a mobile tyre change."

Emergency tyre replacement at the roadside
Emergency tyre replacement at the roadside
on the A1(M).
Some tyre damage cannot be patched safely. If yours has a split sidewall, a hole too big to mend, or it has been shredded or run flat on the A1(M), a repair would not hold and we will not pretend otherwise. We source a new tyre and fit it at the roadside where you have stopped, so you get back onto the motorway on rubber you can actually trust. When it can't be repaired, we fit new, now.
Get clear of the traffic before anything else. Pull into an emergency area, onto the hard shoulder or off at the next junction, switch on your hazards and stand well back from the lanes while you call. Then let us come to you on the A1(M). We confirm the size, source the tyre and fit it where your vehicle sits, with no recovery to a depot and no long wait for a garage slot.
This is a proper replacement, not a temporary bung to limp you along. We carry common car and van sizes and can source most others quickly, then balance the new tyre to your wheel and torque it to the manufacturer spec before you drive off. Callouts run day and night, and we aim to be with you inside the hour wherever the motorway lets us reach you.

- ✓We source and bring the tyre: common car and van sizes carried, most others found quickly
- ✓Balanced and torqued on the spot: set to the right pressure and spec before you set off
- ✓Nothing to pay to book: free two-minute request, price confirmed first, pay after fitting, 24-hour callouts
About the A1(M)
The road we cover.
The A1(M) carries the Great North Road through Hertfordshire, from South Mimms to Baldock. It meets the M25 at South Mimms, serves Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield at junctions 3 to 4, Stevenage at 7 to 8 and Hitchin and Letchworth at 8 to 9. It is a busy commuter motorway feeding traffic between Hertfordshire and London.
Wherever you've stopped along it, we bring a replacement to you and check the wheel, rather than have you risk the rim on a shredded tyre.

What drivers say
Rescued at the roadside.
"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."

"I had a flat tyre off the A40 and they sorted me out. The mobile van was quick to arrive and had the tyre swapped out within 20 minutes."

A1(M) FAQs
Emergency Tyre Replacement on the A1(M), answered.
How do I know if my tyre needs replacing rather than repairing?
If the damage is on the sidewall, if the hole is larger than about 6mm, or if the tyre has been run flat or shredded, it is beyond a safe repair. The fitter confirms this at the roadside on the A1(M), and where a repair really would be safe on a small tread puncture, we will tell you honestly instead.
What happens step by step when you arrive on A1(M)?
The fitter checks the damage, confirms the tyre cannot be safely repaired, then jacks the vehicle and removes the wheel. The new tyre is mounted to the rim, balanced and torqued back to the manufacturer spec, all where you have stopped on A1(M), and then you are clear to rejoin the road.
Will one new tyre be a problem alongside my others?
On most vehicles a single replacement is fine. The fitter fits the correct size and speed rating for your car so the new tyre works safely with the rest, and will let you know if your particular setup, such as some four-wheel-drives, is better off with a matching pair.
How does the price work for a replacement on the A1(M)?
Booking the callout is free with nothing to pay up front. The price depends on the tyre size and brand you choose, and we agree that full figure before we leave, so there is nothing extra added when we reach you on the A1(M), and you pay only once the new tyre is fitted.
How fast can you get a new tyre to me on A1(M)?
We aim to reach you inside the hour where traffic and access allow, and callouts run day and night. Once you are safely off the carriageway, tell us your direction of travel and the nearest junction or marker post so we can find you quickly on A1(M) and get the new tyre fitted.
