Angel sits where Upper Street, City Road and Pentonville Road meet at the busy Islington junction on the A501. A flat in that constant traffic is the last thing you need, so Fast Tyre drives straight out to you.
Angel sits at the southern end of Islington, gathered around the junction where Upper Street, City Road, Pentonville Road and Islington High Street all come together. It is one of the busiest crossings in inner North London, with the A501 pushing constant traffic across the top of the City and Upper Street carrying the A1 north past Chapel Market. All that movement is hard on tyres: speed bumps and patched road surfaces, kerbing in tight permit bays, potholes worn into the junction, and screws and nails picked up where deliveries never stop.
The layout makes a tyre problem worse. The Angel junction itself is no place to change a wheel, the Pentonville Road and City Road are fast and busy with nowhere sensible to stop, and the side streets off Upper Street toward Duncan Terrace are resident permit only and packed by morning. A puncture here quickly becomes a hunt for anywhere safe to deal with it.
Fast Tyre comes out to Angel from our Sydney Road base in Muswell Hill, fitting your tyre wherever you are: a permit bay off Upper Street, the parking near Chapel Market, or pulled in away from the junction. We are open 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and we aim to be with you within 30 to 60 minutes to fit your tyre on the spot.
Angel drivers know the junction is no place to be stuck and the side streets give you nowhere to work. The permit bays off Upper Street fill by morning, the Pentonville Road and City Road offer nowhere to stop, and Chapel Market keeps the area busy all day. Limping to a garage through the Angel traffic, then trying to park, is a waste of a day. A local fitter who knows N1 and the streets around the junction and comes straight to your bay takes the journey out of it entirely.
The situations we get called out to most often across Angel:
The crossing where Upper Street, City Road and Pentonville Road meet is a swirl of buses and turning traffic with nowhere safe to stop. If a tyre goes here, work your way onto a quieter side street, tell us where you have pulled in, and we will come straight to you.
Upper Street carries the A1 north past Chapel Market with constant deliveries and bus traffic, so debris means slow punctures are common. We will meet you at a permit bay nearby, your workplace or your parking spot and deal with it before the tyre goes flat.
The A501 Pentonville Road runs fast and busy with very little room to stop safely. If a tyre lets go, pull as far clear of the live lanes as you can, call us, and we will get a van to you quickly from our base.

Absolutely amazing service. They turned up promptly and got the wheel changed within 20 minutes. The pricing was also very reasonable and transparent.
Absolutely fantastic service! I called Fast Tyre urgently needing a tyre replaced and Abdul arrived quickly and put my mind at ease.
I clipped the kerb when parking, damaging the wall of my tyre. I contacted Fast Tyre at 21:37 and by 23:40 I had a new tyre fitted. Excellent service and both boys were friendly and efficient.
