Puncture Repair · M6

Puncture repaired safely off the carriageway
on the M6.

A puncture in the central tread is usually repairable if you stop before the tyre runs flat. We remove the wheel, inspect it, patch it to British Standard BS AU 159 and rebalance, all at the roadside.

Punctures on the M6 often come from debris thrown up around Spaghetti Junction at junction 6, the elevated section through Birmingham and the queues between junctions 8 and 10 around Walsall. Most are repairable if you stop before the tyre runs flat, so get to a safe spot and call us.

  • Repaired to BS AU 159: a proper internal patch, not a roadside plug
  • Honest assessment: we tell you if it is safe to repair or needs replacing
  • Wheel rebalanced: so you do not pick up a wobble at speed
  • Cheaper than a new tyre: where the damage allows a repair

About the M6

The road we cover.

The M6 is the backbone of the Midlands motorway network, and our coverage runs from the Catthorpe Interchange round through Birmingham and the Black Country. It meets the M1 and A14 at Catthorpe, serves Coventry at junctions 2 to 3, runs over the elevated section and Spaghetti Junction through Birmingham at 4 to 8, and passes Walsall at 9 to 10 and Wolverhampton at 10a. It is one of the busiest motorways in the country, carrying constant freight and commuter traffic through the heart of the Midlands.

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 M6?

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.

Get off the carriageway

Reach an emergency area, the hard shoulder or the next exit if you safely can, and put your hazards on.

Stand behind the barrier

Leave the vehicle on the passenger side and wait well back. In a live lane, call 999 or National Highways on 0300 123 5000.

Call us

Once you are safe, call and we will come to you on the M6 to puncture repaired safely off the carriageway.
