"Absolutely amazing service. First call-out for a replacement tyre after hours and I was amazed."
Mobile tyre fitting
in Hackney Marshes.
Hackney Marshes is pitches and open ground rather than houses, hemmed in by the A12 on one side and the Lea on the other. Rescue Tyres meets the car in the marshes car park or on the streets bordering it.
A fitter at your car
in Hackney Marshes.
A flat here is nearly always found on a parked car rather than a moving one, because people drive to the marshes, leave the car for a couple of hours and come back to it. The rest of the work comes from the edges: the E9 turnings off Homerton High Street and Kenworthy Road, the Clapton side in E5, and the E10 ground towards Leyton. Say which postcode district you are in, where exactly the car stands, and the size stamped on the tyre.

Tyre work in Hackney Marshes.
Punctures top the list here, since open ground and building traffic put plenty of screws and nails into the surface. A nail in the central band comes away with the tyre unseated and the inner lining read by eye, which is what BS AU 159 asks for; anything at the shoulder or through the sidewall gets renewed instead. Kerb-wrecked tyres are exchanged and the wheel itself examined. Locking nuts surrender without a key, and the line runs all night.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
The car park on the marshes is the best working surface for a mile in any direction, flat tarmac with room to swing a wheel clear and nothing passing near. Residential bays on the Homerton and Leyton edges do the job too, once the fitter knows the turning. Yards on the estates towards Orient Industrial Park and East 10 Enterprise Park suit a van when there is somebody to open the gate. The A12 and its slip roads are unusable, and so is the tunnel approach.
This is one address across three postcode districts, E5, E9 and E10, which is worth mentioning on the phone because a fitter navigates to a point and not to a name. Hackney Marshes Car Park is the obvious place to be met: level, open, and no argument about room for a jack and a trolley of tools. Round the edges the calls come from Homerton and Kenworthy Road, from Wick Road and Cassland Road on the A106, and from the Leyton side by Ruckholt Road. The A12 East Cross Route runs past with the Eastway Tunnel below it, and stopping is impossible on any of that. ULEZ applies to the whole of this ground; the charge attaches to driving and skips a car up on a jack.

24 hours in Hackney Marshes.
Late calls at the marshes tend to come from a driver who has finished up, walked back to the car and found it down on one corner in the dark, and from vehicles working out of the estates nearby. Someone answers, the size is matched to your vehicle, and what it comes to is settled before anybody sets off.
What drivers say.
"Good and fast service."
