On the road in Tiptree

The tyre jobs we do most for Tiptree cars

Same roads, same problems. This is what usually brings Tiptree drivers through the gate.

  • 1

    Van tyres for local trades

    Loaded vans out of Tiptree get through rears quickly. We keep the common sizes and can do a pair the same day.

  • 2

    Full sets while you wait

    If you are travelling twenty minutes we will get all four done in one visit rather than splitting the job.

  • 3

    Punctures from the heath lanes

    The lanes across the heath collect debris. We find the leak in the water tank and repair from the inside where it is safe to do so.

Local knowledge

Tyres in Tiptree, from people who drive these roads

Tiptree is around twenty minutes from our Braintree workshop, and we get a steady stream of drivers over from the village, especially for part worn tyres and puncture repairs where the price difference is worth the trip.

/Rural roads and repeated punctures

The roads between Tiptree and the Blackwater side of the county carry a lot of agricultural traffic, and hedge cuttings full of thorns and wire are a real problem in late summer. If you have had two punctures in a month, it is not bad luck, it is the roads you are using.

/Getting the most out of a set of tyres

Correct pressures, a tracking check once a year and swapping worn fronts before they go bald will add thousands of miles to a set of tyres. That is cheaper for you and it is the advice we give whether or not you are buying from us today.

What drivers say

Word of mouth around Braintree

  • Picked up a screw on the way to work, called Sam and he had it patched and back on the car in twenty minutes. No fuss, no upsell.

    Dan, Bocking

  • Needed two tyres on a tight week. He showed me the part worns, checked the tread in front of me and it cost half what I expected.

    Michelle, Great Notley

  • Steering was pulling badly. Tracking sorted the same afternoon and the car drives straight again. Handy that they are open right through to 6pm.

    Reece, Witham
