Mobile Tyre Fitting in Brockworth
Brockworth, the business park and Cooper's Hill — 24 hours a day.
Maximum 60 minute response. We have drivers across England and Wales, so a call gets a fitter to the vehicle rather than you moving a car that is not safe to move. Call 07989 606060 with your tyre size and location.
Brockworth sits at the foot of the Cotswold edge on the eastern side of Gloucester. Ermin Street, the Roman road from the city towards Cirencester, runs through the middle of it, and since 1995 the through traffic has used the bypass south of the village instead.
The biggest thing here is not the village. It is Gloucester Business Park, roughly a hundred and forty acres of offices and light industry on the ground where the Gloster Aircraft Company built aeroplanes.
Roads we get called to around Brockworth
- Ermin Street through the village.
- Gloucester Business Park and the roads inside it.
- The A46 towards Shurdington and Cheltenham.
- Cooper's Hill and the lanes that climb to it.
- The estate roads north of Ermin Street.
- The bypass junctions at either end of the village.
Where the aeroplanes were made
Gloster bought the aerodrome here in 1928. Hurricanes were built on it through the war and the Meteor after it, the works closed in 1962, the site became a trading estate two years later and it was rebuilt as a business park in the 1990s. Dowty Propellers moved into a purpose-built plant on it from late 2019, having lost its Staverton factory to a fire in 2015.
What matters to us is the shape rather than the history. A single employment site of that size, with a small number of entrances, puts several thousand cars onto the same two or three junctions inside the same twenty minutes, twice a day. The buildings are numbered and the internal roads loop, so the building number is worth more to a driver than the postcode is.
Cheese-rolling Monday
The cheese-rolling on Cooper's Hill happens on the spring bank holiday and has no organiser in the ordinary sense. It goes ahead regardless; it did again in May 2026, and several thousand people came to watch. The hill is a grass slope steep enough that spectators sit across it, and the lanes at the bottom are one vehicle wide with banks either side.
For that one day the roads on that side of the village are closed or blocked in practice, and cars are left on verges and in field entrances for the best part of a mile in each direction. If yours is one of them and it has a flat, we will come, but the arrival time will be set by the lane rather than by the distance.
Working room in the village
Ermin Street through Brockworth is a wide road with a lot of side turnings, and the older frontage has cars at the kerb along much of it. The newer estates behind are the reverse: narrow, with parking courts and short closes.
That means the answer to "can you do it where I am" genuinely differs between two addresses two hundred yards apart. Say which road and whether there is a gap in front of or behind you, and we will tell you straight away rather than on arrival.
We also cover Gloucester down Ermin Street, Hucclecote next door and Churchdown across the A40.
What we can do in Brockworth
- Mobile tyre fitting — supply and fit a replacement at your home, workplace or the roadside, including balancing and disposal of the old casing.
- Mobile puncture repair — where the damage is inside the repairable area of the tread, a repair is cheaper and quicker than replacement.
- Commercial tyre fitting — vans, minibuses and other light commercial vehicles.

Before we arrive
- Find your locking wheel nut key. Without it the wheel cannot come off. It is usually in the glovebox, the boot well, or with the spare.
- Read your tyre size off the sidewall, for example 205/55 R16 91V, so we arrive with the right tyre rather than making a second trip.
- If you are on a motorway or dual carriageway, get as far left as you can or into a refuge, then everyone out through the passenger doors, over the barrier and well back from the carriageway — not in the car. Ring with the junction number and your direction of travel.
- Describe where you are, not just your postcode. A junction number, a bay number, a farm, a pub or a bridge puts us on the spot far faster — rural postcodes can cover a mile of near-identical lane. We bring our own lighting, so darkness is not a problem.
More detail in our guides on what to do with a flat tyre on the motorway and checking your tread depth.
Repair or replace
Whether a tyre can be repaired is decided by where the damage is, not by how big the hole looks. Damage inside the central three-quarters of the tread, up to 6mm across, is repairable under BS AU 159. Damage in the shoulder or the sidewall is not, at any size — there is no way to reinforce a sidewall that flexes on every revolution.
The other thing that rules out a repair is having driven on the tyre flat. A short distance is enough: the sidewall folds under the rim and the internal cords break. That often does not deflate the tyre at the time — it shows up days later as a soft rounded bulge, and a tyre in that condition has to be replaced whatever the original puncture looked like.
How the damage was made matters as much as where it is. A nail or a screw pierces, leaving a neat hole that is usually well within the limit. Flint, crushed stone, quarry aggregate and dropped stainless fixings cut instead — a gouge or a tear rather than a puncture — and a cut frequently exceeds the repairable size even when it lands squarely in the middle of the tread. That is why we take the tyre off and look inside before telling you either way, rather than judging it from the outside.
Impact damage behaves the same way. A pothole or a kerb taken at speed compresses the suspension fully and pinches the sidewall between the rim and the obstacle. If that has happened, check both tyres on that side — the rear takes the same hit a fraction of a second after the front — and look for a bulge rather than for a hole.
We carry both outcomes to every job, so a repair that turns out not to be safe does not become a second visit.
Age and wear
Tread depth is not the only thing that retires a tyre. Rubber hardens as it ages whatever the mileage, which is why a caravan, motorhome, trailer or second car can carry almost full tread on a casing that is well past useful life. The four-digit date code on the sidewall gives the week and year it was made — our guide on how long tyres last covers where the line falls.
Depth matters most in standing water. The legal minimum is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters, but a tyre's ability to clear water falls off well above that — by about 3mm you are losing it noticeably, and aquaplaning starts at lower speeds than most drivers expect. Our tread depth guide covers checking it with a 20p coin in about a minute.
Wear patterns are worth reading too. Both outer shoulders going before the middle usually means underinflation, or a lot of cornering and hill descent; one edge alone is more often alignment. We will tell you which it looks like when we are there — see uneven tyre wear for the full picture.
Vans and light commercials
A van needs a tyre carrying the C marking and the correct load index. That is not interchangeable with a passenger tyre of the same nominal size, whatever may have been fitted before — the casing is built to carry more, and a loaded van on passenger-rated tyres is running outside the rating.
Tell us whether the van is loaded when you ring, and we will bring the right fitment first time. Details of what we carry are on the commercial tyres page.
How the repair is done
The wheel comes off, the tyre comes off the rim, and the inside of the casing is inspected before anything else happens. The puncture is then repaired from within using a combined plug and patch, and the wheel is balanced before it goes back on.
That inspection is the part that matters. An external plug pushed into the tread without removing the tyre is a get-you-home measure: it can seal the hole while leaving damage inside the casing entirely undetected, and that damage is what causes tyres to fail later at speed. It is the same job a garage does, done where the vehicle already is.
A slow leak with no puncture to find
A tyre that loses air over days with nothing in the tread has usually failed at the seal rather than the surface — a corroded alloy bead seat, or a perished valve stem. Neither can be found with the tyre still on the rim, and neither is fixed by topping the pressure up.
It typically announces itself on the first cold morning of the year. Cold air contracts, dropping the pressure a few PSI, and a leak that was tolerable through mild weather is a visibly flat tyre by the time you come out to the car. The fix is the tyre off the rim, the sealing face cleaned back to sound metal, and a new valve.
Working conditions around Brockworth
Station and workplace car parks. A commuter car park is where slow punctures hide. Eleven hours standing with a short drive at each end means you never drive far enough or fast enough to feel a tyre going down — so it presents as a flat at six in the evening rather than as a soft one in the morning. These are also the easiest jobs we do: the car is stationary for hours, the surface is flat, and there is room to work. Leave us the bay number and where the locking wheel nut key lives and it is finished before you are back, which beats finding it flat at the end of the day.
Common questions in Brockworth
- Can you come onto Gloucester Business Park during the working day?
- Yes. Give us the building number rather than the road — the internal roads loop and the numbering is what the signs use. If your car is in a barriered area, say so, because we may need somebody to let the van through.
- What happens on cheese-rolling day?
- The lanes below Cooper's Hill are impassable for most of it and the parking spreads a long way out. We still work through the day, but we plan the approach from the far side and quote longer.
- I have kerbed a wheel on Ermin Street. Is that a problem?
- It depends where it landed. A kerb strike puts the load into the outer shoulder and the rim edge at the same time, so we look at the wheel as well as the tyre before saying anything either way.
- Do you cover Upton St Leonards, Great Witcombe and Badgeworth?
- Yes, across GL3 and GL4 and out into the lanes below the escarpment.
