Early one morning, a customer in Bricket Wood went out to his car and found a flat tyre - on the exact day he was due to fly off on holiday. With a flight to catch and no time to spare, he called QuickGrip as soon as he realised something was wrong.

We took the details straight away - his location, tyre size, and how tight his timeframe was - and got a technician moving. With the airport run hanging over him, the priority was simple: get the right tyre on his car and get him out of the door as quickly as possible.

How the callout was handled

Call received first thing

The customer called QuickGrip early in the morning after finding his tyre flat, explaining he needed to leave for the airport shortly. We took his tyre size, location and deadline over the phone.

Technician dispatched to Bricket Wood

A mobile van was sent straight to his home, with a choice of matching tyres on board so the job wouldn't be held up waiting on stock.

Tyre fitted and checked

The customer picked the tyre he wanted, and it was fitted on the drive along with a pressure and safety check, so he could set off for the airport without further delay.

A flat tyre on the morning of a holiday is exactly the kind of thing nobody has time for. Getting to the customer quickly and fitting the tyre he wanted, without him needing to find a garage first, turned a stressful start into a short delay.
