Tyre Repairs

At Bridge Garage, we offer tyre and puncture repair services at our workshop in Swadlincote.

Causes of punctures:

• Punctures can occur due to various reasons, such as nails or broken glass cutting through the tyre, causing air to escape. Other contributing factors can include encountering road hazards in the form of uneven surfaces and pot-holes.
• Damage to the valve stem used for tyre inflation can also lead to air leakage.
• Worn-down tyre surfaces are more susceptible to punctures, underscoring the importance of monitoring wear and tear. If uncertain about safe tread wear levels, don’t hesitate to contact the team at Bridge Garage who will be happy to check your tyres and advise you how to proceed.
• Over-inflated tyres are another common cause, as excessive air can make them inflexible and prone to punctures.

How do I know if I have a puncture?

The most apparent sign of a puncture is a visibly flat or deflated tyre. However, while driving, sensations of shuddering or the vehicle pulling to one side also suggest punctures. In such instances, it’s advisable to pull over safely and contact Bridge Garage.

Puncture repair limitations:

Not all punctures can be repaired, and eligibility depends on factors like the size and location of the damage. If the damage is to the tyre’s side or if the puncture is too substantial, tyre replacement may be the only option, a service which is provided by Bridge Garage.
