Mobile Tyre Fitting vs a Garage: Which Is Right for You?

When you need new tyres or a puncture fixed, you have two main choices: drive to a garage or have a mobile fitter come to you. Both do the job, but they suit different situations. Here is an honest comparison to help you choose.

Convenience

This is where mobile fitting wins hands down. Instead of taking time out of your day to drive to a garage, wait around and drive back, the tyre shop comes to you. We fit tyres on your driveway while you work from home, in the office car park during a meeting, or at the roadside if you have broken down.

Cost

Many people assume mobile fitting must cost more, but that is often not the case. We keep our overheads low and pass the saving on, and there is no call-out charge. Once you factor in the fuel and time saved not driving to a garage, mobile fitting is very competitive.

Safety

If you have a flat or a damaged tyre, driving to a garage on it can be dangerous and can wreck the tyre and wheel completely. A mobile fitter removes that risk by coming to wherever you are, so you never have to drive on an unsafe tyre.

Speed

• No waiting in a queue behind other customers
• A dedicated fitter working on your car alone
• Emergency and 24-hour call-outs available
• Most jobs completed in well under an hour

When might a garage make sense?

A garage can be the right call if you need work that goes beyond tyres — such as a full four-wheel laser alignment rig or other mechanical repairs. For everything tyre-related, though, mobile fitting gives you the same quality work without the hassle.

The best of both worlds

We bring garage-quality tyres, tools and expertise directly to your door, seven days a week. Give us a call and see just how easy getting your tyres sorted can be.
