Mobile Tyre Fitting in Maidstone

Maidstone is the county town of Kent and a crossroads for traffic. The M20 runs along its northern edge with three junctions serving the town, the A229 comes down over Blue Bell Hill from the Medway Towns, and the A20, A26, A249 and A274 all feed into the centre. With that much traffic funnelling through, flat tyres turn up everywhere: on a slip road at junction 6, in a queue on Loose Road, or on a driveway in Shepway first thing in the morning.

Wherever it happens, you don't have to limp to a garage or wrestle with a space-saver spare. A mobile fitter comes out with the tyre and the kit and does the work where the car is parked. We run day and night, every day of the year, and in most cases we aim to have someone with you within 60 minutes, though the time of day and the traffic around the town centre make a difference.

For most people it comes down to time. Waiting for a garage slot means a day without the car; a mobile fitter means the job is done while you carry on with yours. Here is what happens once you ring:

• You give us the location and tyre size. The size is moulded into the sidewall, in a format such as 205/55 R16.
• The closest free fitter is sent. Our network has over 100 mobile fitters across England and Wales, so someone working near Maidstone takes the job.
• The work is done on the spot. Balancing is free, the old tyre is taken away free of charge, and any new tyre comes with the manufacturer's guarantee.

You pay once the job is finished, by card, cash or bank transfer, and the price you are quoted has no hidden extras.

• Mobile tyre fitting: budget, mid-range or premium tyres fitted at your home in Barming or Penenden Heath, at work, or in a town-centre car park.
• Puncture repair: a nail in the middle of the tread can usually be plugged safely, so we repair it instead of selling you a new tyre. Damage near the shoulder or sidewall means a replacement.
• Van tyres: plenty of vans run up and down the M20 and A249 every day, and we fit van and light commercial tyres so a flat doesn't cost you a round of jobs.
• Breakdown recovery: when a wheel is bent, the car isn't safe to work on where it stopped, or the problem is more than a tyre.

Our fitters cover the whole town, including Allington on the west bank of the Medway, Bearsted and Weavering Street to the east, Park Wood, Shepway, Tovil, Fant, Penenden Heath, Sandling and the streets around Mote Park. We also work along the M20 between junctions 5 and 7, on the A229 towards Blue Bell Hill, and on the A20, A26, A249 and A274.

Beyond Maidstone we reach out to Tonbridge, Sittingbourne, Chatham and Ashford.

One of the most common hold-ups at the roadside has nothing to do with the tyre. Many cars have one locking nut on each wheel, and it can only be undone with the matching key. If that key has gone missing, been left in another car or was never handed over when you bought the car, removing the wheel becomes a much slower job.

Take a minute now to find it. It usually lives in the glovebox, the boot floor or the tray beside the spare. Keep it in the car, not on the kitchen worktop, and tell us when you call if you can't find it, so the fitter knows before arriving. While you are looking, check whether you have a spare at all: lots of newer cars only carry an inflation kit.

Ring 07989 606060 at any hour, or send us a WhatsApp message or use the contact form. It helps to have your registration, the tyre size and a clear description of where you are, such as the road name or the junction number if you are on the M20.
