Between the river, the park and the hill, Richmond gives a driver very little flat, quiet road to break down on.
That is exactly what the van is set up for. The tyre machine, the balancer, the air line, the torque wrench, the lamps and the stock all travel, so the job is completed beside the car. Wheel off, old tyre stripped, new one fitted and spun on the balancer, nuts torqued properly, pressures set. No recovery truck comes near it, and the old tyre leaves with us.
Four seasons is a compromise, summer rubber is a commitment and winter tyres are a plan. Which of the three suits depends on where the car actually goes, and a car that spends its life on Lower Mortlake Road has different needs from one doing two miles at a time. A Kew cul-de-sac or a North Sheen main road, tell us which. A tight terrace in Kew or a narrow bay on Lower Mortlake Road is usually workable.

The A316 at Lower Mortlake Road is fast and unsuited to standing a damaged car on, while George Street and the roads around the centre are the opposite problem, too tight and too busy for a truck to work in. Petersham and the park edge add gradients and narrow lanes. Rather than trying to reach Twickenham or Mortlake on a tyre that has failed, we bring the fitting bay to the kerb, finish the wheel including the balance, and the car drives away on it.
A driver on Kew Road felt the car pull hard and stopped in a side street. The tyre had a gash through the tread, so a matching replacement was fitted and balanced without the car moving again.
A car left facing down the gradient of Richmond Hill needed a wheel off. We chocked the downhill side, jacked from the manufacturer point and completed the change safely on the slope.
A resident of North Sheen found a nail through a shoulder, too near the edge for a legal repair. A new tyre went on in the bay that evening and the old one went into the van.

Honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! Last night after leaving Wembley we got a flat tyre, stranded 2 hours from home, and these guys got us back up and running. 10/10 service from start to finish, even at 1am!
Very quick call out and replace time, very good price and very polite.
Excellent service. I am really impressed. Came within 20 minutes or so, put a new tyre on and balanced it.
Yes. Your bay is not affected because the work happens within the space the car already occupies. We park the van as close as the street allows.
With chocks, the correct jacking points and a little care, yes. If the slope is severe we will ask to roll the car onto a flatter stretch first.
Every night. We bring work lighting, so an unlit street near the park edge or a dark corner of Petersham is no obstacle.
No. The machine uses protected clamps and nylon shoes exactly as an indoor fitter does, so the rim edge is looked after during the change.
It leaves with us for proper disposal. You are not left carrying a ruined tyre around or storing it at home.
