Calling for emergency tyres at the roadside? Here's exactly what happens from the moment you call Franks to when you drive away.

Being stranded at the roadside with a flat or blown tyre is stressful. Here's exactly what happens when you call Franks Mobile Tyres for emergency tyre assistance in Scotland. Step 1 – The call: You call your nearest Franks branch. Our team will ask for your location (postcode or nearest landmark), your vehicle registration, and confirm the tyre issue.

Step 2 – Stock check: We confirm we have the correct tyre size in stock on the van or at the branch. If your size isn't on the nearest van, it will be collected from the branch before dispatch. Step 3 – Dispatch: A mobile tyre fitter is dispatched to your location. You'll receive an estimated arrival time — usually 45–90 minutes for emergency callouts.

Step 4 – Arrival and assessment: The technician inspects the tyre and confirms whether repair or replacement is needed. You'll be given a clear price before any work begins. Step 5 – Fitting: The old tyre is removed, the new tyre fitted and balanced, and the old tyre disposed of responsibly. Step 6 – Drive away: Whole process from arrival to driving away typically takes 20–30 minutes.
