Tyre Puncture Repairs in West Kirby & Hoylake (Wirral)
At D&M Motors, we offer professional tyre puncture repairs at both our West Kirby and Hoylake garages, helping drivers across the Wirral get safely back on the road.
If you’ve picked up a nail or screw and your tyre is losing pressure, we can carry out a safe and reliable repair using an internal mushroom plug, which seals the puncture from the inside of the tyre.
This is the industry-approved method and ensures a long-lasting repair when the damage is within a repairable area.
🔍 When Can a Tyre Be Repaired?
We follow standard tyre safety guidelines when assessing whether a puncture can be repaired.
✅ Minor Repair (Repairable Area)
A tyre can usually be repaired if:
- The puncture is within the central 75% of the tyre tread
- The tyre has more than 1.6mm tread depth
- The damage is small and suitable for a standard repair
❌ Major Repair / Non-Repairable
A tyre cannot be safely repaired if:
- The damage is outside the central 75% of the tread
- The puncture is too large or has caused structural damage
⚠️ Sidewall Damage
Tyre sidewalls cannot be repaired under any circumstances.
If there is damage to the sidewall, the tyre must be replaced for safety reasons.
