Falloden Way and Lyttelton Road carry the A1 straight through the middle of the Suburb, with quiet estate roads lying on both sides of it. Rescue Tyres comes to the house with the tyre already loaded, seven days a week.

Tyre trouble in Hampstead Garden Suburb?

Almost everything here happens on the drive, because almost every house has one. The damage itself tends to come off the A1: a hole taken hard on Falloden Way, or a rim clipped on the turn out of Aylmer Road, and the tyre goes soft overnight outside the house. Calls like that are the simplest kind there is. Read out the postcode and the sidewall code, and the correct tyre arrives with the fitter, who works beside the car where it stands.

What we do in Hampstead Garden Suburb
Tyre work in Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Replacement tyres answer the full code moulded into the sidewall of whatever is standing on the drive, load index and speed letter with it, and run-flat, EV, 4x4 or van makes no odds to how one is ordered. Where a nail has gone in, the wheel is lifted, the tyre unseated and the liner examined, and BS AU 159 then says whether mending it is permitted. Something that has let go completely is renewed, with the rim checked over at the same time. Locking nuts open without their key.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Hampstead Garden Suburb
Drives, bays and car parks.
A drive, then, with room to open a door fully and get a jack under the sill. Failing that, an estate road, car pulled in tight, fitter kneeling on the kerb side instead of out among the traffic. For a commuter who walks back to the car and finds it flat, the East Finchley station car park is a sensible place to meet. Kenwood House has public parking at the Hampstead Lane end for a vehicle that got that far. Bays at the Budgens or the M&S Foodhall run to short stays.
The Suburb straddles two postcodes, NW11 on the Hampstead side and N2 nearer East Finchley, and the line between them follows no road anybody can name, so give the postcode rather than the area. Work comes from the houses off Hampstead Lane and Spaniards Road, from the roads on either flank of Falloden Way, and from commuters who leave the car at the East Finchley station car park and take the Underground in. A private drive is the best working surface there is, and most jobs end on one. Off limits is the A1 through the middle, under whichever name it carries along this stretch, where a stopped car sits in moving traffic. ULEZ sits over the whole Suburb without a break in it, and what it bills is a journey, not a car standing with its wheel off.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Hampstead Garden Suburb.
The night calls out of NW11 and N2 are mostly people home late who catch a flat tyre in the headlights as they pull in, and drivers who limped off the A1 and parked rather than press on towards Staples Corner. Someone picks up no matter the hour, the size is checked off against your car, and the cost is pinned down at that point, not at the kerbside.

Hampstead Garden Suburb FAQs
Questions from Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Can the fitter work on the drive at our house?
A drive is exactly where this goes best. The van stands clear of the road, the ground is level, and nothing needs shifting first. Give the postcode, NW11 or N2, along with the house number, and the fitter brings the tyre out with him.
I had a blowout on the A1 near Falloden Way. What now?
Do not change it where it lies. Get the car off the A1 onto an estate road, or onto a drive if one is close, and ring from there. Should it be immovable and the spot feels dangerous, ring 999 first of all, then have the car recovered somewhere sensible.
Is the East Finchley station car park a workable place to meet?
It is one of the few pieces of public parking on this side of the Suburb, so it often serves. Parking at a station belongs to the train operator rather than to us, so a word with them beforehand saves trouble. Otherwise the fitter simply takes the car on your own drive.
Does the ULEZ cost anything while the car is being worked on?
Nothing at all. What the zone bills is a non-compliant vehicle making a journey across Greater London, and the Suburb lies inside it at every hour of every day. A car propped on a jack with a wheel off is making no journey, so the time costs nothing.
