Puncture Repair · A205

Puncture repaired safely off the carriageway
on the A205 South Circular.

Picked up a puncture on the A205 and not sure whether it can be saved? Most can. A nail or screw caught in the tread is usually a repair, not a replacement, and we fix it to BS AU 159 at the roadside so you are not paying for a new tyre you do not need.

First, get somewhere safe on this A-road: an emergency refuge, the hard shoulder or off at the next exit, hazards on and well clear of the traffic. Then call and tell us your direction of travel and the nearest junction or marker post on the A205 so we can find you quickly.

When we arrive we take the wheel off, remove the tyre and inspect it inside against the standard: central three-quarters of the tread, under 6mm, not run flat. Meet all three and we patch it there and then. Fall outside them and we fit a replacement we carry, so you leave on a tyre we can stand behind.

  • Inspected inside and patched to BS AU 159, the only repair that truly lasts
  • We only mend what is safe, and say so plainly when a tyre needs replacing
  • A repair costs a fraction of a new tyre, wheel rebalanced before you set off
  • Roadside callout on the A205, usually within the hour where we can reach you

About the A205 South Circular

The road we cover.

The A205 South Circular is south London's orbital route, running from Kew across to Woolwich. It passes Richmond and Putney, Wandsworth, Catford and Lewisham and Eltham, linking the A3, A23 and A2. It is a busy, often slow urban route stitched together from residential roads.

Wherever you've pulled over along it, we come to you and repair the puncture at the roadside rather than have you limp on and ruin the tyre.

Stay safe first

Broken down on the A205 South Circular?

A slow puncture usually gives you a little time. Reduce speed, put your hazards on and come off at the next exit or into an emergency area rather than stopping in a live lane.

A205 FAQs

Puncture Repair on the A205 South Circular, answered.

What actually happens during a roadside repair on the A205?
Once you are safe, we jack the car, take the wheel off and remove the tyre from the rim. We inspect the inside of the casing, fit a combined plug and patch to BS AU 159, rebalance the wheel and refit it. Then you are good to drive on from the A205.
Why do you take the whole tyre off just for a puncture?
Because a repair to BS AU 159 has to be done from the inside. Taking the tyre off the rim is the only way to inspect the casing for hidden damage and bond a patch properly. An outside plug fitted on the A205 without that is not a repair we would trust.
Can you repair a puncture in the dark or bad weather on the A205?
Yes. Our fitters work through the night and in poor weather, with lighting to do the job safely at the roadside on the A205. Getting you off a A-road and back on your way matters most when conditions are bad, so we run 24-hour callouts every day.
Does a repaired tyre need checking again later?
A repair to BS AU 159 lasts the working life of the tyre, so there is no special upkeep. Just keep an eye on your pressures as normal after we send you off from the A205, and have any future puncture inspected properly rather than plugged from outside.
What if my puncture cannot be repaired at the roadside?
Then we tell you straight and fit a replacement from the van where we have your size, so you are not left stranded on the A205. You only pay for what is needed, with nothing to settle up front, and we confirm the price with you before we set off whether we repair or replace.
