Mobile Tyre Fitting in Chichester

Chichester is a small city with a lot of traffic passing around it. The A27 bypass carries coast traffic past the southern edge, the A286 loops round as the ring road before heading north through Lavant and south to Birdham, and the A259 links the city with Bognor Regis one way and Emsworth the other. Add the flat farm lanes towards the harbour villages and you have a mix of fast dual carriageway, ring-road queues and narrow country roads, all of which can end a journey with a flat.

Wherever it happens, a fitter can come out to you. We run all day and all night, every day, and in most cases we aim to have someone with you inside 60 minutes, depending on where you are and how busy the roads are.

Visitors add to the mix. In summer, traffic heads through the city towards the harbour and the beaches beyond, and a holiday car with a flat in a packed car park is a job our fitters know well. We will come to wherever you are stopped, as long as it is safe to work on the wheel.

1. Get somewhere safe first. On the bypass that means well off the carriageway; in town, a side street or car park is fine.
2. Ring us with the details. Your location (a postcode or a nearby junction helps out in the lanes), the registration, and the tyre size from the sidewall if it is easy to read.
3. A fitter heads straight to you. We have over 100 mobile fitters across England and Wales, and the job is passed to whoever is closest.
4. Repair or replacement where you stand. Wheel balancing and disposal of the old tyre cost nothing extra, and new tyres come with the maker's guarantee.

Payment is by card, cash or bank transfer once the car is ready, with no extra charges added on.

• Mobile tyre fitting: budget, mid-range or premium tyres put on at home in Summersdale or Whyke, or at your workplace while you get on with the day.
• Puncture repair: if a thorn or nail has gone into the central part of the tread and the hole is small, the tyre can often be saved.
• Van tyres: useful for growers, landscapers and trades vans that spend their days on the peninsula's farm tracks and lanes.
• Breakdown recovery: for a car stuck on a verge with a damaged wheel, or one that simply cannot stay where it has stopped.

Inside the city we cover Summersdale and Broyle to the north, Whyke and Stockbridge to the south and everywhere in between, including the ring road itself. Out of town, our fitters reach Lavant, Donnington, Birdham and the rest of the Manhood Peninsula, plus the A27, A259 and A286 corridors.

Further along the coast we also look after drivers in Bognor Regis and Littlehampton, and to the west in Havant.

Around Chichester, much of the countryside is farmed, and when hedges are flailed the cuttings end up in the road. Hawthorn and blackthorn spikes are sharp enough to work their way into a tyre, and they rarely cause an instant flat. More often the tyre loses a little air each day, and you only notice when the steering feels heavy or the warning light comes on.

After driving through freshly cut lanes, have a quick look at the tread when you get home. A thorn left in place can be removed and the hole repaired if it is caught early and sits in the middle of the tread. Driving for days on a soft tyre is what turns a cheap fix into a new tyre.

Phone 07989 606060 at any time, or send a WhatsApp message or use the contact form. If you are out on a lane without a postcode, a village name or the nearest junction is enough to get us started. Having the registration and tyre size ready saves a few minutes.
