Where we work in Shirley, Croydon
Potholes and kerbs on Wickham Road (A232) and Shirley Road cause a lot of the punctures we deal with in Shirley, Croydon. We also fit tyres in the car parks around Shirley Windmill and at East Croydon, so you do not have to limp anywhere on a flat.
If you stop on Wickham Road (the A232), it is a main road — get the vehicle to the kerb or a side street if it will roll, put the hazards on and wait somewhere safe, not in the car.

Mobile Tyre Fitting in Shirley, Croydon — FAQs
My car has no spare wheel — can you still help?
Yes. Tell us the tyre size from the sidewall (for example 205/55 R16) and we will bring a replacement and fit it where you are. If we cannot source that size quickly, we recover the car to a tyre specialist instead.
How quickly can you reach me in Shirley, Croydon?
Shirley, Croydon is about 12.2 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour, normally coming in via Wickham Road (A232) and Shirley Road. Traffic, the time of day and how many jobs are running all move that, so when you ring 07961 100260 we give you a real window for that moment rather than a best case.
Can you remove a locking wheel nut without the key?
Yes. We carry removal tools for most locking wheel nuts. It takes a little longer, so mention it when you ring.
Do you cover all of CR0?
Yes — every street in CR0, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Addiscombe, Addington, West Wickham and Elmers End, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
Is it safe to drive on a space-saver spare?
For a short distance at reduced speed, yes — usually no more than 50 mph and only as far as you need to go to get the tyre replaced. Check the sticker on the wheel for its limits.
My car won't start at East Croydon station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Shirley, Croydon, usually for a flat battery after the car has sat all day. Tell us which car park and roughly where you are parked. If it has a height barrier or a pay-on-exit gate, mention that too and we will send the right vehicle and sort the exit with you.
Can you fit a tyre at the side of a fast road?
Not safely. On a fast dual carriageway, motorway or red route we recover the car to somewhere safe first and change the wheel there. Your safety comes before the job.
I have broken down on Wickham Road — what should I do?
That is a main road, so safety first: if the car can roll, get it to the kerb or into a side road, switch on your hazards, and wait somewhere safe away from the traffic — not in the car. Then ring 07961 100260. Red routes and bus lanes are enforced quickly, so we prioritise moving vehicles off them.
Do you fit run-flat tyres?
Yes, for most sizes. A run-flat that has been driven on while deflated usually needs replacing rather than repairing, and we can bring the right one out to you.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Shirley, Croydon?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Shirley, Croydon, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
