What we can fix
Nails, screws and small punctures in the tread are the usual flat, and most can be repaired. We do both plugs and patches.
A puncture in the sidewall or right at the edge of the tread, a large cut, or a tire driven flat long enough to damage it inside can't be safely repaired. If that's yours, we'll show you and quote a replacement before doing anything.
Questions
Do I need an appointment?
No, walk-ins are welcome. If you would rather not wait, book online and we will have a bay ready.
Plug or patch?
We do both: a plug is $40, a patch $50. Which one depends on where the puncture is and how big it is; we will tell you before we start.
What if my tire can’t be repaired?
We will quote a replacement. Used tires are $50 a tire, $80 installed (used tires), or find new tires in your size.
My spare is on. Can I drive in?
Yes. Bring the flat tire in the trunk and we will repair it and put it back on.
