Tyre on the tyre machine for a puncture repair in Scarborough

A nail or screw in the tread is one of the most common reasons a tyre slowly loses pressure. Caught early, many punctures can be repaired properly from the inside of the tyre, saving you the cost of a new one.

Can my puncture be repaired?

Whether a puncture can be repaired depends on where the damage is and how big it is. Repairs are generally only possible in the central area of the tread, not in the sidewall or near the shoulder, and not if the tyre has been driven on while flat and damaged inside. A proper repair means checking the tyre inside and out, and we only repair it if it is safe and legal to do so.

If a repair isn't possible

If the tyre can't be repaired, we will show you why and supply and fit a replacement. We stock and source tyres for every budget, from value to premium brands, and new tyres are from £49 fitted.

Run-flats, TPMS and locking wheel nuts

We handle run-flat tyres and TPMS (tyre pressure monitoring) sensors, and can remove a locking wheel nut if the key has gone missing — a common hold-up when a wheel needs to come off.

What to do if you get a flat

If a tyre goes flat while driving, slow down gently and pull over somewhere safe. Driving on a flat tyre can wreck it and damage the wheel, turning a simple repair into a replacement. If you can't change the wheel yourself, we offer local vehicle recovery around Scarborough.

Questions

Puncture Repair: Your Questions Answered

Can a tyre with a nail in it be repaired?

Often yes, if the nail is in the central part of the tread and the tyre hasn't been damaged by driving on it flat. We inspect it and only repair it if it is safe and legal.

Can you repair a puncture in the sidewall?

No — sidewall damage can't be safely repaired. We will supply and fit a replacement tyre instead.

How much is a puncture repair?

Call us with your tyre size and we will give you a price. If a replacement is needed, new tyres are from £49 fitted.

Can you repair run-flat tyres?

We handle run-flat tyres. Whether a particular run-flat can be repaired depends on the damage and the manufacturer's guidance, so we will inspect it and advise.
