We will then provide you with an itemised quote of the work required to fix or replace your tyres, and will not proceed without your approval. Payment needs to be made at the completion of any tyre service unless new tyres need to be ordered, in which case we will require a deposit on the day of our first visit.
All tyre service and repair costs will differ based on the make and model of your car and the tyre brand preferred if different from your existing tyres. Showing you an itemised job quote before we start keeps you in control of costs and because you can see the work being done at your location, you can ask your mechanic questions directly.
Repair Tyres
At Lube Mobile, we repair tyres and there can be many reasons you need your tyres looked after by a professional team. It could be that you have a slow leak and you need to pump them up regularly, or that you noticed the tyres are wearing faster than you think they should. Any problems with your tyres and wheels can mean your tyres will not last as long as they should. With a complete set of four tyres costing nearly a thousand dollars (depending on the size and profile) getting them fixed and performing regular maintenance can save you money in the long run.
The tyres on your car are an important part of your vehicle. They are the object that touches the ground and connects you to the road. Having tyres that are not wearing properly, or under-inflated can mean that you’re not getting the right amount of control. This can easily result in an accident that could have otherwise been avoided.
Checking on your tyres should be completed at least once per month. An easy method to remind yourself is to nominate a date and complete your checks then. Go over your tyres and pick out any small rocks caught in the tread, then check the tyre pressures (you can use a tyre gauge for this, or the pump at your local servo), inspect the wearing pattern it should be even and on the middle of the tyre. You can keep track of your tyre pressures using a notepad or the calendar app on your phone. If you notice that your tyre pressures are consistently low, you may have a leak and should book with Lube Mobile and as we can repair tyres quickly and conveniently. Avoiding issues with your tyres are the best method to get the full amount of life out of them.
As Lube Mobile is your local mobile mechanic, we can come to your home and offer your car services and any car repairs you need, including tyre repairs and replacement. We are operating all over Australia, including major cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, Perth, and Canberra. If you're looking for tyre repair near me, Lube Mobile should be at the top of your list, as we can take the workshop to you.
How to repair tyre puncture?
Having a tyre puncture is never enjoyable. It can be an annoying surprise as you try to leave for work in the morning, or worse when you’re leaving for home after a hard day. They always seem to come at the worst time, and you know getting it fixed will take up some of your weekends. Luckily at Lube Mobile, we can fix your tyre puncture and repair tyres.
You can book in for tyre repairs through our website or by calling our customer service team on 13 30 32. As we come to you and take care of the problem, the fix will be easy and completed without interrupting your day. It doesn’t matter if the affected tyre is on the car, or you changed it out for the spare. If you’ve already replaced the tyre with the spare, we can put the freshly repaired tyre back on the car and your spare back in the boot. When you need help to repair tyres we can be there for you, and help save you some time..
How much does a tyre repair cost?
The exact cost to repair tyres can vary based on a few different reasons. This is usually the style of the tyre and how many punctures need to be filled. In some cases, a repair is not possible and the tyre must be replaced. If your tyre is relatively new this can be unfortunate news. If you’re lucky, the tyre was nearly at the end of its usable life and was due to be replaced soon anyway. For complete costs on any tyre repair, you can call us on 13 30 32, and we’ll let you know how much it will be.
Is it better to repair or replace a tyre?
For the answer to if it is better to repair or replace a tyre, you need to know how much ‘life’ the tyre has left. For example, if the tyre only has about 10% of tread left before it needs to be replaced, getting it repaired can cost you the most money. This is because you won’t get any value out of having the tyre repaired and you’re likely only about a month or two from needing to have it replaced anyway.
If the punctured tyre only has a small amount of tread left and you’re getting it replaced, odds are that you’ll need two tyres replaced, as the opposite tyre is most likely at about the same tread depth. However, if you’re not ready to replace both tyres you can opt for just changing the one tyre. We’ll pick the best combination for you so your car remains safe on the roads. If you're only getting one tyre replaced, try to get the same brand and tread pattern as the other tyres on your car. This means that they’ll perform in the same manner during different road conditions.
There are times that it’s not possible to repair tyres. This can depend on how the tyre has been punctured and if it has affected the internal workings of the tyre. For example, if the puncture is on the sidewall of the tyre, it cannot be repaired and must be replaced. The size of the damage can also be a factor if the hole is bigger than 55mm it will not be possible to repair. If you’re not sure you can call us on 13 30 32, and we’ll let you know what can be done.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can all flat tyres be repaired?
No, not all flat tyres can be repaired due to strict Australian safety standards regarding location and damage size. Punctures outside the central tread or larger than 6mm compromise structural integrity. If your puncture falls outside safe guidelines, our technician can immediately fit a new wheel via our mobile tyre service.
Can you repair a punctured tyre?
Yes, a punctured tyre can usually be safely repaired if the damage is smaller than 6mm and located within the central tread area. Punctures on the sidewall or large structural tears cannot be safely patched. Our mobile mechanics perform a complete onsite inspection to advise whether a tyre repair or replacement is required.
Can you repair a tyre at my home or workplace?
Yes, our mobile tyre service vans deliver professional puncture repairs directly to your driveway, office parking lot, or roadside location. We bring specialised tools to demount, patch, re-balance, and re-install your wheel on the spot. Save time by arranging your next mobile tyre repair without visiting a traditional workshop waiting room.
Do I need a tyre repair or tyre replacement?
You need a tyre repair for small tread punctures, but a replacement is necessary for sidewall cuts, severe wear, or internal belt damage. Our technicians inspect your wheel on-location to explain the safest, most cost-effective option before carrying out your car tyre repair or fitting a new tyre.
Do you offer mobile tyre repair near me?
Yes, our fully equipped mobile service vans provide on-location puncture repairs across major Australian cities and regional centres. Instead of driving on a damaged tyre to a workshop, a qualified technician arrives at your home or workplace to demount, repair, balance, and pressure-test your wheel on the spot.
How long does a tyre repair take?
A standard mobile tyre repair typically takes 30 to 60 minutes per wheel, including demounting, puncture patching, re-balancing, and safety checks. Our fully equipped vans complete the entire job directly at your home or workplace. Schedule a convenient appointment online and get back on the road fast.
How much does a mobile tyre repair cost in Australia?
A standard tyre repair in Australia generally costs between $45 and $90 per tyre. Getting a mobile technician to complete your puncture repair at home or work includes an onsite safety inspection, wheel removal, permanent repair, and wheel balancing. If the damage isn't repairable, we can provide a budget-friendly mobile tyre replacement.
Is a mobile tyre repair plug permanent and safe?
Yes, a professional mobile tyre repair is completely permanent and safe when performed to Australian standards using a combination internal patch and stem plug. Unlike temporary external rope plugs, an internal patch-plug seals the inner liner and prevents moisture from rusting the steel belts. Our technicians inspect the tyre internally before certifying your tyre repair.
Is it safe to drive on a flat tyre?
No, driving on a punctured tyre is unsafe because reduced air pressure severely compromises vehicle braking and handling. Continuing to drive deflated also destroys the inner casing structure, turning a simple repair into an expensive replacement. Pull over safely and book our mobile tyre repairs team to fix the puncture on-location.
What types of tyre damage can be repaired
Small tread punctures caused by nails, screws, or road debris can generally be repaired if the internal casing remains intact. However, sidewall punctures, bead damage, exposed steel cords, or severe internal degradation cannot be safely mended. Our qualified mechanics conduct a thorough safety check during every punctured tyre repair visit.
Why is my repaired tyre still losing air pressure?
If a previously repaired tyre continues to lose air pressure, the cause is often a secondary hidden puncture, a corroded wheel rim breaking the bead seal, or a leaking valve stem. In rare cases, internal casing damage prevents a complete seal. A mobile technician can conduct an onsite pressure test to find leaks and determine if a secondary flat tyre repair is possible.
