A driver with a damaged tyre often needs a prompt, trustworthy assessment close to the route they use. A properly trained adult technician could provide suitable repairs from an organised workshop or approved location, using appropriate safety procedures and referring damage that cannot be repaired responsibly.

How the service works in practice
If you are a trained adult tyre technician, begin by inspecting the tyre and wheel in a suitable work area, explaining whether the issue is safely repairable and agreeing on the price before work begins. Secure the vehicle correctly and use suitable tools, protective equipment and manufacturer guidance throughout. Record the job, test the completed work appropriately and refer unsafe or out-of-scope faults instead of improvising.
