Lost the key for your locking wheel nut, or found one seized solid or rounded off? On its own that little nut can bring a tyre change to a dead stop, because the wheel simply won't come off without it. It catches people out at the worst times, a flat on the drive with no key in the glovebox, a nut spun round by a previous garage, or one corroded so tight the key just slips. We deal with exactly this across Hammersmith, coming to the car wherever it's parked, from a bay on the Broadway to a driveway off Fulham Palace Road.

We carry specialist removal tools made to grip and back out a stubborn, rounded or keyless locking nut without chewing up the alloy around it, then we fit a standard replacement nut so you're not left with the same problem next time. Once the nut's off, we get on with the actual job, whether that's a puncture repair or a full replacement, and you drive away sorted. It's a genuinely different service from a straightforward tyre change, and one a lot of mobile fitters can't handle, but for us it's routine. So if a missing key or a wrecked nut is all that stands between you and a working wheel, that's not a reason to call recovery; it's a call to us. We cover W6 around the clock for exactly these hold-ups.
A seized or keyless locking wheel nut can strand you on your own drive in Hammersmith even when a spare or a fitter is right there, since the wheel won't come off without it. We bring specialist extraction tools to streets from the Broadway to Fulham Palace Road, remove the nut without harming the alloy and fit a fresh one, then change the tyre in the same visit.
The locking wheel nut removal situations Hammersmith drivers call us out to most:
A driver on the Broadway had a flat but no locking nut key in the car. We removed the nut with our own tools and changed the tyre on the spot.
A locking nut corroded tight on a car off Fulham Palace Road wouldn't budge. We backed it out without marking the alloy and fitted a replacement nut.
A previous garage had rounded off a locking nut on a car near Ravenscourt Park. We gripped and removed it, then got the tyre changed as normal.
We also attend roadside locking wheel nut removal on the main routes through Hammersmith, including A4 (Great West Road), A219 (Shepherd's Bush Road), A315 (King Street) and more, day and night.
No. We carry specialist tools that back a locking nut out without its key, then fit a replacement, so a missing key on the Broadway is no reason to call recovery. It's routine for us in W6.
It shouldn't. Our removal tools grip the nut itself and shield the rim, so even a nut seized tight off Fulham Palace Road comes out with the alloy left intact.
Usually yes. Rounded and spun nuts near Ravenscourt Park are a common call for us, and our extraction tools bite where a key can no longer grip, so the wheel comes free.
We fit a standard replacement nut before we leave, so you're not facing the same hold-up in W6 the next time a wheel has to come off. You drive away with a full set.
One visit. We remove the stubborn nut first, then go straight into the puncture repair or replacement on the spot, so the whole thing is settled in a single Hammersmith callout.

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.
