You stay with the car and we bring everything to put it right where it sits.
The first thing we do on arrival is work out, honestly, whether the tyre can be saved or has to be swapped, rather than reaching for the pricier answer. A nail in the tread can often be repaired on the spot; a tyre that's finished gets replaced from van stock there and then. Either way you're moving again in minutes instead of losing the afternoon to a flatbed. It's worth remembering that driving on a flat quickly ruins the tyre and can damage the wheel and even the arch, so on Reading's mix of fast commuter roads and slow town traffic the cheaper move is to stop, stay put and call us to you. We cover the whole town and its edges around the clock, so a flat on the school run or coming off the M4 at J11 is one call from sorted.
A flat on the A4 or coming off the M4 leaves you blocking a busy junction with nowhere obvious to stop, and the parking around Caversham and the town centre is tight at the best of times. Rather than nursing the car to a depot and wrecking the tyre, we come to wherever you've had to halt and settle the repair-or-replace call on the spot.
The flat tyre help situations Reading drivers call us out to most:
A commuter felt the car pull and dragged it to the kerb in Caversham. We got there fast, found a repairable nail and had them moving again without a tow.
A driver stopped dead with a flat just off the A4 at rush hour. We reached the spot, judged the tyre beyond saving and fitted a replacement there.
A parent found a tyre flat to the rim on the drive in Tilehurst with a nursery run to make. We sorted it where it sat, no recovery truck involved.
We also attend roadside flat tyre help on the main routes through Reading, including M4 (J10–12), A33, A329(M) and more, day and night.
No. We drive out to wherever you've stopped on the A4 and decide there whether to repair or replace, so you skip the tow and the cost of dragging the car off to a garage.
Only enough to clear moving traffic at the M4 J11 slip or the A4. Rolling on a flat any further ruins the tyre and can score the wheel, so pull in, stay put and call us over.
We aim for 30 to 60 minutes anywhere across Reading, and a parent stranded on the way to drop-off or on the drive in Tilehurst goes straight to the front of the queue.
Yes. On arrival in Caversham or wherever you've halted we lift the tyre off, see where the damage sits and give you a plain answer before any work or spend.
Of course. Give us the exact bay or kerb on the A33 estates and we come to the car, so you stay with it while we sort the flat where it sits.
Yes. We provide mobile flat tyre help right across Reading, Berkshire including Caversham, Tilehurst, Earley, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Typical arrival in Reading is 30–60 minutes from dispatch, day or night, depending on traffic. We give you a live ETA the moment the van sets off.

Called at 10am, the fitter arrived with Bridgestone tyres at 10:45am and was finished by 11:15am. Very reasonably priced and great communication, would definitely use again.
