Does SG9 mean you will arrive in a fixed number of minutes?

No. Traffic in Stevenage, and how far the technician has to travel, set the time for SG9. We tell you that time before you accept it.

What should I say when I call from SG9?

Say the street in Cottered, the code SG9, what the tyre looks like, and whether you have the locking wheel nut key. A photo helps if you can take one safely.

Can every flat tyre in SG9 be repaired on the street?

No. A repair in SG9 is only suitable when the damage is in the central tread and the tyre can come off the wheel for an internal patch. Sidewall cuts in Cottered are replacements.

Spare wheels and Cottered

A space-saver spare is a temporary, speed-limited wheel, not a repaired tyre. If you have already fitted one in Cottered, we can still come and fit a proper tyre. If you have no spare and the tyre is off the bead, do not try to drive across SG9. Wait where the car is safe.

Legal tread is separate from the puncture

UK tyres need at least 1.6 mm of tread across the central three-quarters of the width, all the way round. Patching a bald tyre in Cottered does not make it legal. If the tread on the SG9 car is already on the wear bars, expect a replacement quote, not a repair quote.

Price before anyone travels to Cottered

You hear the figure for the Cottered visit before a technician is sent. The figure follows the tyre, the time of day, and the journey to SG9. Every puncture is not the same price. You can say no.

Booking Cottered

A SG9 driveway is a better workshop than a red route. Run-flats driven flat in Cottered are often finished as new tyres. Bank holidays do not close the phone line for SG9. If Cottered is beside a motorway, the services or a side street is the meeting point.
