A pothole on the A308 outside Hampton Court leaves a tyre past saving and the car needed by evening. The correct size is brought to Hampton Wick and fitted where you stopped.
Tyres get written off in Richmond upon Thames in a handful of ways: a pothole strike on Hampton Court Road that puts a bulge in the sidewall, a shoulder cut from a Whitton kerb, a tyre run flat from Teddington Lock to the house. No repair exists for any of them. If the car is needed today, for Heathrow, for the school in Hampton Hill, for work, the answer is the right tyre brought out and fitted, not a limp along the A308 to a garage.
Text 07473 720871 with the size, the Hampton Wick or Whitton street and a picture of the damage. Common family-car and SUV sizes are often on the van from Brent Cross, so a replacement can go on straight away; an odd size is collected first, and you hear which it is on the call, with the figure confirmed. Mounted, balanced, torqued, then the other three checked for pressure and for damage from the same pothole.

A Hampton Wick or Hampton Hill drive, a Whitton close, the car park at Hampton Court if it is open, Teddington station streets if the bay is yours. Not on the A308 or A316; both are through routes with nowhere to work.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the Richmond upon Thames page
Replacing a ruined tyre in East Sheen usually means getting off Clifford Avenue or Chiswick Bridge, both on the A316, and into Sheen Lane (B351) or a quieter road beside it. Sheen Lane Car Park is another place the car can be left out of traffic. Photograph the sidewall markings, add the nearest landmark, and your size is loaded on the van for the trip west.
The tyre brought out to Hampton Hill should be right first time. Read the whole sidewall: size first, then the load number, the speed symbol and whether XL or run-flat appears. Look at its partner on the other side of the car, because the newcomer should copy that pattern, or at least its type. On the call you will be asked which of those details you can confirm, and a photo settles the rest. A Hampton Hill drive or a Whitton close gives the van room to stand.
