Dunchurch grew up where the A426 crosses the B4429 south of Rugby, a mile or so from the M45 at Thurlaston. The Rescue Tyres van carries the replacement out to a village drive or a trading estate yard and fits it there.

Being the first village off the M45 shapes the calls from Dunchurch. A tyre that starts sighing on the spur tends to be nursed down to Thurlaston and onto the A426, and the driver pulls in once Southam Road goes quiet. Villagers supply the rest: a screw gathered on Toft Hill, a rim grazed against the Coventry Road kerb. Read the size off the sidewall, text the postcode, and a tyre of that exact size goes aboard before the van leaves north London.

What we do in Dunchurch
Tyre work in Dunchurch.
In Dunchurch the tyre is the whole job. A replacement arrives matched to the size moulded on the old tyre, and the worn tyre is taken off your hands. A nail through the tread is plugged and patched internally, as BS AU 159 lays down, provided it sits in the zone that standard permits. After a blowout the new tyre goes onto a rim that has been inspected first. And a car whose locking nut key has gone missing gets that nut drawn off before anything else happens.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Dunchurch
Drives, bays and car parks.
Village drives carry most of the work, and the car stays exactly where it sits while the wheel is off. On the Dunchurch Trading Estate a forecourt or yard does nicely for a van, once whoever runs the unit has been warned. A residential road off the B4429 serves a car that can still roll a short distance. The pub car park by the crossroads belongs to the pub, the anglers' one to the club, and the verges of the A426 are far too narrow to stand on.
Most calls come from homes along Rugby Road and Southam Road, from the lane out to Thurlaston and from firms on the Dunchurch Trading Estate. Postcodes split between CV22 on the Rugby side and CV23 further out, so send the whole thing. The crossroads, where Coventry Road and Daventry Road meet the A426, is no spot to leave a car on a jack, and Toft Hill is no better. The motorway is the firm limit: nobody sets up on the M45 carriageway or its hard shoulder. Leave at junction 1 and stop in a village side road. Stranded and unable to move? Dial 999 when somebody's safety is at stake, or National Highways on 0300 123 5000 to arrange recovery, and the fitter picks the job up wherever the car is taken.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Dunchurch.
After dark the Dunchurch calls are mostly drivers who left the M45 with a warning on the dash and coasted into the village. Calls are picked up all night long, the job is talked through there, and the van is on its way once the tyre size is settled.

Dunchurch FAQs
Questions from Dunchurch.
My tyre went down on the M45. Can you come to me on the spur?
The fitter never works anywhere on the M45 itself. Drive on, if it is safe, to junction 1 at Thurlaston and park up in Dunchurch. If the car is stranded and you fear for your safety, ring 999 before anything; otherwise ask National Highways for recovery and ring us afterwards.
Is there anywhere central in Dunchurch to meet the van?
Not a public car park, sadly: the two that turn up on maps belong to a pub and an angling club. A drive, a calm stretch of road off Daventry Road, or a yard on the Dunchurch Trading Estate all make a far better place for the wheel to come off.
Do you cover Thurlaston, Onley and the lanes beyond Dunchurch?
Thurlaston, Onley and Kites Hardwick are all on the list, with Bilton and Cawston on the Rugby side as well. Everything is driven from the Brent Cross base, so quote the postcode and the arrival you can realistically expect is worked out while you are still speaking to us.
Can a work van be sorted on the Dunchurch Trading Estate?
It can, provided the van is parked clear of any gate or loading bay the site uses. Van tyres with the load index your sidewall shows are sourced to order, and a tread puncture that qualifies is repaired right there in the yard.
