On-the-spot help

Roadside
Assistance

Not every breakdown needs a recovery truck. We fix the problem at your location — battery, tyre, lockout, wrong fuel — so you drive away without being towed.

What we fix

Services we provide on-site

Most common issues are resolved within the first visit. If a full recovery is needed, we handle that too — no second call.

Mechanic helping at roadside
Common

Flat Battery / Jump Start

Dead battery? We jump-start on-site. If the battery is beyond saving, we carry and fit a replacement from our stock of common sizes.

Signs you need this

Car won't start, clicking when turning key, electrical systems dead, warning lights on dash.

Common

Flat or Damaged Tyre

Puncture, blowout, or slow leak? We fit your spare on-site. No usable spare? We source a replacement or arrange a recovery to a tyre fitter.

Signs you need this

Visible flat, vehicle pulling to one side, unusual steering feel, tyre pressure warning.

Any time

Vehicle Lockout

Locked your keys inside, or lost them entirely? We provide non-destructive professional entry for all makes and models. Proof of ownership required.

Signs you need this

Keys visible inside vehicle, no spare available, no access to vehicle.

Don't start engine

Wrong Fuel

Petrol in a diesel or diesel in a petrol? Do not start the engine. We drain and refuel on-site, or recover to a specialist if the engine has already run.

Signs you need this

Wrong fuel added at the pump — modern diesel nozzles fit into petrol necks.

Pull over first

Overheating & Coolant

Overheating warning or steam from the bonnet? Stop immediately. We carry coolant and can assist with minor cooling issues at the roadside.

Signs you need this

Temperature warning light, steam, dashboard warning in red.

Case by case

Minor Mechanical Issues

Broken fan belt, seized component, or a mechanical issue preventing safe driving. We assess on-site and advise whether a fix is possible or recovery is needed.

Signs you need this

Unusual sounds, loss of power, dashboard warning — vehicle unsafe to drive.
