What should I say when I call from HP18?

Say the street in Waddesdon, the code HP18, 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 HP18 be repaired on the street?

No. A repair in HP18 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 Waddesdon are replacements.

Does HP18 mean you will arrive in a fixed number of minutes?

No. Traffic in Hemel Hempstead and Aylesbury, and how far the technician has to travel, set the time for HP18. We tell you that time before you accept it.

The inside of the tyre

The finished repair for a puncture in Waddesdon is a patch from the inside, after the tyre is off the rim, in the manner of BS AU 159. A rope plug pushed in from the outside is not that repair. We will not describe it as one. If HP18 is a roadside spot, we still need enough room to take the wheel off.

When Waddesdon is the wrong kind of job

A car stuck in a live lane of a motorway is a recovery problem before it is a tyre problem. If that is where you are, even if the nearest district is Waddesdon, get somewhere safe or call the motorway authority. We fit and repair tyres where a jack can stand. We do not pretend HP18 includes the inside of a running lane.
