Tyre Repair Cost
19 Answers
Had a flat tyre yesterday GRR!
AA man changed it for me and said it had a nail in it and advised me to get it repaired rather than buy new as car is new and I've only done 2000 miles on the tyre.
Think this sounds a good idea but how much should I expect to pay? Don't want to be ripped off when they see a middle aged, disabled lady coming.
Many thanks

If you put your tyre size and post code in, then you will be able to see their prices. Last one we got was £96 that included everything and they come to the house and do it.

I paid £18 about 5 years ago. A quick google confirms Tonyav's estimate/

It's not sensible to put the repaired tyre as spare rather than put it back on the car. Just suppose there is a problem with the repair - most unlikely but it can happen (there may be a problem with the new valve that they always fit or the tyre may not seal properly on the rim - I've had that happen with new tyres and you only find out a day or two later). When you next get a puncture and come to use the spare it's flat. Tyre have to be repaired in such a way that they are "as good as new". Put the repair back on the car and use it. In the unlikely event of there being a problem with it you still have a spare that you know is good.
