What Is Puncture Repair?
Puncture repair is the process of identifying and sealing a tyre that has been damaged by a nail, screw, or sharp object. If caught early and the damage meets safety guidelines, we can repair the tyre instead of replacing it—without compromising safety or performance.
π
What We Repair
Nail or screw punctures within the tyre tread
Slow air leaks and pressure loss
Small cuts or splits that meet repairable criteria
Leaks around the valve or rim edge
Pressure loss caused by minor corrosion on the wheel
β
When a Tyre Can Be Repaired
We follow strict safety standards:
• The damage is within the central 75% of the tread
• The puncture is no wider than 6mm
• No sidewall damage, bulges, or exposed cords
• Not previously repaired in the same area
• Tyre must be otherwise roadworthy
If the tyre is unsafe or beyond repair, we’ll always recommend a suitable replacement.
