Here is the fact that decides most puncture jobs in Farringdon: under British Standard BS AU 159, only the central three-quarters of the tread is safely repairable. So before you write the tyre off, we come to the car, on Farringdon Road, near Cowcross Street, or by Smithfield, and check where the damage actually sits. Most nails and screws in that central band can be plugged and patched, at a fraction of the cost of a new tyre. Damage in the sidewall or shoulder cannot be mended safely, and we will tell you straight if that is the case. A slow puncture that has you topping up air every couple of days is exactly the kerbside job we clear in well under an hour, paying by card when it is done.

Busy spots like Cowcross Street and the early-morning bustle around Smithfield mean a slow puncture can strand you where there is nowhere to stop. Drive on a soft tyre and you ruin it, turning a cheap repair into a costly replacement. We assess and seal kerbside, and you pay by card on site.
The puncture repair situations Farringdon drivers call us out to most:
A driver found a screw after parking on Farringdon Road. It sat in the repairable zone, so we patched it to standard and saved a replacement.
Someone had been pumping the same tyre all week off Cowcross Street. We found a fine nail, removed it and sealed the hole at the kerb.
A car returned to a soft tyre near Smithfield. The puncture was in the tread, so they were rolling again within forty minutes.

Absolutely fantastic service! I called Fast Tyre urgently needing a tyre replaced and Abdul arrived quickly and put my mind at ease.
I clipped the kerb when parking, damaging the wall of my tyre. I contacted Fast Tyre at 21:37 and by 23:40 I had a new tyre fitted. Excellent service and both boys were friendly and efficient.
5 star without a doubt! Called this morning with a complete flat tyre in N13 and within 30 minutes Abdul arrived and changed it. He also checked all 4 tyres and showed me one was completely bald and dangerous to drive.
