"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."

on the A14.
Not every flat on the A14 needs replacing, and you should not pay for a new tyre until someone has looked. Pull off the carriageway to a safe spot, leave the tyre alone and call us. We come to where you have stopped, check the tyre and carry out the quickest safe fix, repairing it where we can and replacing it only where we must.
We work the outcome out on the spot rather than guessing. The fitter checks the tread, the sidewall and the rim at the roadside, and if it is a clean puncture in the tread we plug it there and then. If the damage is too severe or too close to the edge to mend safely, we have tyres on the van and fit one in the same visit, so there is no tow and no garage.
Please do not limp on to the next junction or services. A flat that is driven on is a tyre that has to be replaced, and it can wreck the wheel too, which on a busy A-road is not worth it. Stay put once you are safe and we come to you. Nothing is paid up front to book it; we call you back to confirm the price before we set off, and where we can reach you we are usually there within about an hour.
- ✓We look before we quote: you pay for the fix you actually need
- ✓One roadside visit: repaired or replaced without a tow to a garage
- ✓Tyres carried on the van: a replacement is fitted there and then
- ✓Nothing up front: the balance depends on your tyre size and brand
About the A14
The road we cover.
The A14 begins at the M1 and M6 Catthorpe Interchange and heads east towards the port of Felixstowe. In our area it serves Kettering and Corby, linking the Midlands motorways to the East Coast ports. It is one of the country's busiest freight corridors, heavy with HGV traffic.
Wherever you've stopped along it, we come to you and sort the flat, a repair where it's safe, a replacement where it isn't, and get you moving again.

"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."

"Had a rapidly deflating tyre. Rang Rescue Tyres, they had it in stock and I was back on the road within an hour."

A14 FAQs
Flat Tyre Help on the A14, answered.
I have a flat on the A14, will you repair it or fit a new tyre?
We decide once we have seen it, not before. A nail or screw in the main tread is usually a straightforward repair we do on the spot. A split sidewall, a bulge, a shredded tyre or a run-flat that has been driven on will need replacing, and we carry tyres on the van to do that where you have stopped.
Can you tell me over the phone if it can be mended?
Not honestly, no. Whether a tyre can be repaired depends on where the damage is and how bad it is, and that only becomes clear once a fitter has looked at the tread, sidewall and rim. That is why we diagnose it on arrival and give you a straight answer there and then.
Can I keep driving to get off the A14 first?
Only far enough to reach a safe place, and slowly. Ease off the power, hold the wheel straight and come off the carriageway at the next safe spot, an emergency area or a junction. Once you are clear of the traffic, stop and leave it. Driving any real distance on a flat wrecks the tyre and often the wheel too.
Where should I wait for you on the A14?
Somewhere well away from moving traffic. On a A-road that means an emergency area, a hard shoulder if there is one, or off at the nearest junction, never a live lane. Put your hazards on, and if it is safe stand behind a barrier rather than by the car. Tell us your direction of travel and the nearest junction so we head straight to you.
How do I book, and how soon can you get here?
There is nothing to pay up front. A repair is the cheaper outcome; a replacement depends on your tyre size and brand, and we call you back to confirm the price before we set off. We are usually with you within about an hour where we can reach you, and run same-day and 24-hour callouts.
