You're on the A14 near St Ives at speed when there's a bang and the car lurches to one side. A blowout is alarming, but how you react in the next few seconds matters most. Don't stamp on the brakes; ease off the accelerator, grip the wheel and hold your line while the car slows itself.
Get your hazards on, let the speed drop, then steer gently onto the hard shoulder or verge. Climb out on the side away from traffic and wait behind the barrier, not beside the car. Once you're safe, call 07717 389637. We cover the A14, A1123 and A1096 and the lanes around Hemingford and Houghton with three vans, carrying common sizes to fit a replacement on the spot. A burst tyre can't be repaired, so it's a new one, fitted and balanced wherever you've stopped, paid by card or contactless.
We answer burst-tyre call-outs across St Ives and its main roads, the A14, A1123 and A1096, plus the lanes around Hemingford and Houghton. Once you're safely behind the barrier, ring 07717 389637 and a van carrying the right size will be on its way, day or night, usually within the hour.
The burst tyre replacement situations St Ives drivers call us out to most:
The A14 moves fast and a blowout there leaves no room for hesitation. Hold the wheel, bleed the speed off, hazards on, onto the hard shoulder, out and behind the barrier. Then ring us and we'll bring the right tyre out to you.
Carry on after a burst on the A1123 and the tyre will shred, often chewing the arch liner as it goes. Stop the moment it's safe and call; we carry the usual sizes to replace it at the roadside and get you moving.
A sharp kerb strike on the narrow bits around Houghton can split a sidewall so it fails soon after. That's never repairable, so it's a replacement, fitted at your address or wherever you've managed to pull in.
We also attend roadside burst tyre replacement on the main routes through St Ives, including A14, A1123, A1096 and more, day and night.
Keep off the brakes, ease off the throttle and steer straight as the car slows. Then hazards on and gently onto the hard shoulder. Wait well away from the traffic, behind the barrier.
Yes, we're 24/7. Blowouts happen at all hours, so call whenever it is and a van will set off to you.
The casing and sidewall are damaged in a blowout, and any distance run flat ruins the structure. A repair wouldn't be safe, so it has to be replaced.
We carry common car, SUV and 4x4 sizes. Read us the numbers off the sidewall when you call and we'll confirm we've got it before heading out.

I used their service to fix a punctured tyre. They arrived within 45 minutes and replaced my tyre. Highly recommend for urgent tyre service.
So glad I called when I got a puncture. They kept me posted, arrived in good time and the price was very reasonable. I felt safe and looked after by their excellent service.
Within an hour Abdul was at my house and it took him 15 minutes to change two tyres. Rapid, polite and with a huge smile. An absolute asset to the company.
