Tyres, punctures, batteries and more fitted at your door
Woke up to a flat tyre, thought I could get the spare on and get it to a garage but turns out I cant and the tyre wont budge. Quick Google and there are Driveway tyres. I'm already thinking i'm going to have to wait all day, and it's going to cost more than the garage........ how wrong was I:
I call and speak to John, who said he's got a job on but he'll buzz me back in half hour.
-10 minutes later his colleague Mike is on the phone, asking what tyre I need and what my address is.
-1 hour later, Mike is on my driveway jacking my car up, armed with a new tyre just in case its needed.
-40 mins later, my tyre has been repaired with no new tyre needed. £25 charge. All whilst having a laugh about the other cars on my driveway.
£25 and 2 hours of time and the car is as good as new. Now would that have happened if I went to a garage? NO! I'd be sat waiting my turn, only to be told the tyre is not repairable and I need a new tyre at a cost (and they probably can't get it today!)
And of course, good service is not good service if it just happens once....... so when the Mrs needed a tyre after a blowout; we call Mike and see if he can help. Yet again, within the hour he's on the drive jacking up the car with a spare tyre ready to go. We were expecting to pay over the odds given the quick & convenient service, but the tyre worked out cheaper than going to the usual garage!
Fast working, honest, funny, great at keeping you informed of ETA's AND cost competitive: I would not fail to recommend John & Mike to anybody. They are the spirit of small Welsh business and should be your go to for tyres and tyre repairs!
All the best with the business guys, Kieran and Bianca!
After suffering a puncture in my van that I had just bought I found the car jack and tool to release the spare wheel were missing. With it being 7am on Sunday December 30th I could not find anyone available to help. Until I found driveway tyres on the Web. I rang Jon who answered within seconds. Within 20 minutes Jon was with me. He managed to get my spare wheel out and swapped over within minutes, with no pressure to buy a new tyre from him and only charging me £20 for the call out. I was more than happy to pay double for the service he provided and with it being Sunday morning during the holiday period. Jon did a great job, wire brushing the spare to remove the rust, checking the psi on all of my tyres, advising me on safety and using a torque wrench to tighten my wheels rather than just banging them on with a drill. I would highly recommend driveway tyres to anyone.

Just had Mike fix a new tyre, he turned up an hour before I expected him to and with a smile and a joke fixed it in double quick time (7 minutes according to Mike!). Will be recommending this company to everyone!

Great service that got my out of a difficult situation on the first day of my holiday! Picked up a nasty puncture on a run flat tyre, and automatically checked the nationwide names. They couldn't provide what I needed and therefore I decided to try a local firm. Spoke to John; it was pretty late in the day and he managed to find me some tyre options and could fit that evening. He called me back when promised and kept me informed all along about arrival time. Driveway delivered great service, even checking pressures on all tyres and resetting my type pressure monitor on the car. John gave me a good price and took all the stress out of what could have been a bad start to my holiday. I totally recommend Driveway and wish them ever success. It is the customer care that makes such a difference. i hope everyone around South Wales gives them a try.
