Puncture Repair · A46

Puncture repaired safely off the carriageway
on the A46.

A puncture on the A46 is rarely the end of the tyre. A screw or nail in the tread usually meets the British Standard for repairs, BS AU 159, which means an internal patch that holds for the life of the tyre and costs a fraction of a new one. We come to you on this A-road and mend it where you have stopped.

Get to safety before anything else. Pull into an emergency area, onto the hard shoulder or off at the next junction, put your hazards on and stand well back from live traffic while you call. We make our way out to you along the A46, take the wheel off and inspect the tyre from the inside.

A roadside repair only counts if it meets BS AU 159: the hole in the central three-quarters of the tread, under 6mm, and no sign the tyre has been run flat. If your damage is outside those limits we tell you and fit a replacement instead, so you never leave on a patch that could let go.

  • Repaired to BS AU 159, an internal patch after we inspect inside the tyre, never an outside plug
  • A straight repair-or-replace answer, and we only mend what is genuinely safe
  • A qualifying repair costs far less than a new tyre, wheel rebalanced before you go
  • We reach you at the roadside on the A46, usually within the hour where we can get to you

About the A46

The road we cover.

The A46 links Coventry and the Warwickshire towns, much of it modern dual carriageway. It runs from the M6 near Coventry past Kenilworth, Warwick and Leamington Spa to Stratford-upon-Avon and Alcester. It is a fast ring and link route around the Warwickshire towns.

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 A46?

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.

A46 FAQs

Puncture Repair on the A46, answered.

I am on the hard shoulder of the A46, what should I do?
Stay safe first. Get everyone out and behind the barrier, away from the live carriageway, and leave your hazards on. Then call us with your direction and nearest marker post on the A46. On a motorway, ring the emergency services too if you feel at risk before we arrive.
Can you repair a run-flat tyre after a puncture on the A46?
Only if it has not actually been driven on while flat. A run-flat that has run deflated may be damaged inside the reinforced sidewall. We inspect it at the roadside on the A46 and check the maker's guidance, and if it cannot be trusted we fit a replacement instead.
Will you have my tyre size on the van?
We carry a wide range of common sizes, so where a repair is not possible on the A46 we can often fit a replacement on the spot. Tell us the size on the tyre wall when you call and we will confirm what we can bring out to you.
Is it safe to drive slowly to a garage instead?
It is a false economy. Driving on a flat, even slowly, along the A46 ruins the casing and can damage the wheel, turning a repairable puncture into a new tyre. It is safer and cheaper to stop, get clear of the traffic and let us come to you.
How will you find me on the A46?
Give us your direction of travel and the nearest junction number or marker post on the A46 when you call. Those markers, spaced along the A-road, pinpoint your location for us. Keep your hazards on as we approach so the fitter can spot your vehicle quickly.
