How Mobile Tyre Fitting Works — Everything You Need to Know

What Is Mobile Tyre Fitting?

Mobile tyre fitting means a fully equipped tyre technician comes to your chosen location — home, workplace, car park or roadside — rather than you driving to a garage. The technician carries a specially equipped van with a professional tyre changer, balancing machine, compressor and a full stock of tyres.

Step 1: Get a Quote

Contact us by phone or online form. Give us your vehicle registration, current tyre size (found on the sidewall of your existing tyre — e.g. 205/55 R16 91V) and your location. We'll provide a transparent, all-inclusive price — tyre cost plus fitting, balancing and disposal of your old tyre.

Step 2: Book Your Slot

Choose a time that suits you — same day, next day or a specific future date. We're available 7am–10pm, 7 days a week. No need to take time off work — we can visit you at the office, or book for a weekend at home.

Step 3: We Arrive

Our technician arrives at your location in a fully equipped van. They'll introduce themselves, confirm the work, and get started immediately. You don't even need to be with the vehicle — just let us know where the car is parked and how to access it.

Step 4: Tyre Removal and Fitting

The old tyre is safely removed using professional equipment. The new tyre is mounted and inflated. The wheel is then dynamically balanced using the onboard balancing machine — vital for smooth driving and preventing vibration.

Step 5: Quality Check

Before packing up, our technician checks all tyre pressures, inspects your other tyres for free, and confirms the fitted tyre is secure and the wheel torqued to manufacturer specifications. Your old tyre is removed and disposed of responsibly.

Step 6: Drive Away

That's it. The whole process typically takes 30–45 minutes per tyre. For a full set of four, allow around 90 minutes. You drive away on fresh, properly balanced tyres without having left home.
