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 street 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 Kilburn, coming to the car wherever it's parked, from a bay on the A5 Kilburn High Road to a side street off Quex Road.

We carry specialist removal tools designed 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 out recovery; it's a call to us. We cover NW6 around the clock for exactly these hold-ups.
A seized or keyless locking wheel nut can strand you on your own street in Kilburn even when a spare or a fitter is right there, since the wheel won't come off without it. We bring specialist removal tools to streets from the A5 Kilburn High Road to Christchurch Avenue, remove the nut without harming the alloy and fit a fresh one, then change the tyre in the same visit.

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!
Really great service to repair a flat tyre. Easy to coordinate via WhatsApp, arrived promptly, good communication and a fair price.
I used their service to fix a punctured tyre. They arrived within 45 minutes and replaced my tyre. Highly recommend for urgent tyre service.
