Urgent tyre trouble in Hayes, sorted where you are
Hayes keeps moving through the night. Vans head out of the yards by the Grand Union Canal before dawn, staff drive in and out of Stockley Park, and the A312 Parkway carries a constant stream of traffic down to junction 3 of the M4. A tyre failure on any of that, or a flat discovered outside your home in Yeading or Hayes End, is a job for us. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, every day, and send the nearest available fitter with a tyre and the tools to fit it on site.
Our aim is to reach you within 60 minutes in most cases. Traffic on the Parkway and around the M4 has a big say, so we'll give you a realistic time when you call.
The Parkway, the M4 and the Uxbridge Road
Hayes sits on some fast roads, and staying out of the traffic matters more than anything else in the first few minutes.
- On the A312 Parkway and Hayes Bypass: this is a dual carriageway with quick-moving traffic and big junctions. Lift off the throttle, let the car slow gradually and leave at the next exit if you can. If you're forced to stop, put the hazards on and get everyone out on the verge side, well clear of the carriageway.
- On the M4 around junctions 3 and 4: pull onto the hard shoulder or into an emergency area, switch on the hazard lights, get out by the left-hand doors and wait behind the barrier. If you've stopped in an emergency area or are stuck in a live lane, call National Highways on 0300 123 5000. Our motorway flat advice covers this in full.
- On the Uxbridge Road or the A4 Bath Road: turn off into a side street or car park rather than stopping in a bus lane or at a junction.
On-the-spot options for cars and vans
In most cases the fitter replaces the tyre where the vehicle has stopped, whether that's a yard, a customer's address or the side of the road. If the damage is a single small puncture in the central tread and the tyre hasn't been run flat, a repair to British Standard guidance may be possible. If the vehicle can't be worked on safely, or the wheel itself is damaged, we can arrange breakdown recovery.
Car and light commercial tyres come in premium, mid-range and budget ranges, all with the manufacturer's guarantee. Balancing and disposal of the old tyre are free, prices are competitive and there are no hidden fees.
Fleet vehicles and locking nuts: on a shared van or pool car, the wheel lock key can easily go missing between drivers. Check the cab and the glovebox before you ring, and tell us if it can't be found.
A van off the road mid-shift
For a delivery driver or a tradesperson, a flat at nine in the evening with drops still to make is more than an inconvenience. If the van is loaded, don't try to limp on to the next address: a heavily laden van on a deflated tyre can overheat and wreck it, and the handling suffers. Stop somewhere level and out of the traffic, and let us know the vehicle and its load. If the van only has a slow leak, our article on spotting a slow puncture will help you judge how urgent it is.
