24/7 Private Roadside · Service

24 Hour Tire Repair Across DFW

Q: Do you serve apartments and garages?

Yes — apartments, office parks, parking garages, and any DFW highway shoulder.

Q: How long does tire repair take?

Most jobs are completed within 30 minutes after we arrive on-site.

Q: Do I have to be present?

Not always — for some services we just need vehicle access. Tell our dispatcher when you call.

Q: What does tire repair cost?

From $49 base service call. Upfront pricing — same rate after-hours.

Q: Is a plugged tire safe?

Yes — when the damage qualifies for repair (tread only, under ¼ inch) and the repair is done with a proper plug-and-patch combo following RMA/TIA standards. We don't take shortcuts.

Q: Can you repair a sidewall puncture?

No — sidewall flex makes any sidewall repair unsafe. We'll quote a tire replacement instead.

Q: How long does a repair last?

A properly repaired tire lasts the rest of the tire's normal life. The repair isn't a temporary fix.

Q: Will it pass a state inspection?

Yes — properly repaired tires (tread, plug-and-patch combo) pass Texas inspection. Improper repairs (string plugs alone, sidewall patches) do not.

Q: Can I keep using the tire for a long highway trip?

Yes for properly repaired tires. We do recommend a final pressure check before any long trip, but the repair itself is highway-rated.

Q: What if the puncture is too big to repair?

We tell you on-site and offer a same-visit tire replacement so you don't pay for two trips.

Quick answer

Highway 35 Roadside performs 24 hour mobile flat tire repair across DFW — nail and screw punctures plugged or patch-plugged in the tread, then aired to spec. If the sidewall is cut or the puncture is out of repairable range, we mount your spare instead. Typical arrival 20–40 minutes. Arrival time depends on your location, traffic and weather. From $49. Call (469) 340-3500 to dispatch a tech now.

Do we service your vehicle?

Straight answers on what we can and cannot handle at the roadside — no guessing before you call.

Do you service electric vehicles?Yes: Yes. We handle EV tire changes, EV lockouts including frunk and phone-as-key failures, and the 12-volt auxiliary battery that strands most EVs. We do not charge a depleted traction battery on the roadside.
Do you service hybrids?Yes: Yes. Hybrid 12-volt batteries, jump starts, tires, lockouts and fuel are all standard work for us. We follow the manufacturer jump points rather than clamping the traction system.
Do you service motorcycles?Yes, with limits: Yes, with limits. Tires, batteries, jump starts and locked ignition or fuel-tank locks only. We do not tow motorcycles — for that you need a motorcycle-rated flatbed.
Do you service RVs and campers?Yes, with limits: Yes, with limits. Tires, house and chassis batteries, diesel-rated jump starts and lockouts on Class A, B and C motorhomes, fifth-wheels and travel trailers. We do not tow RVs.
Do you service commercial vans and box trucks?Yes: Yes. Fleet vans, box trucks and tractors get priority dispatch, heavy-duty jump starts from a 4250-amp pack, tire work, batteries and fuel. Fleets can be invoiced directly instead of paying at the roadside.
Can you repair a run-flat tire?Yes, with limits: Yes, with limits. A run-flat can be repaired only if it was never actually driven on while flat — driving it flat damages the reinforced sidewall invisibly. We inspect on-site and tell you the call before charging.
Can you change low-profile and large-diameter wheels?Yes: Yes. We carry protective jack pads and bead tools for low-profile and large-diameter alloy wheels, so the rim is not scarred during the change.
What if I don't have a spare tire?Yes, with limits: Often yes. If the puncture is in the repairable tread area we plug-patch and air it to spec. If it isn't, we can source and mount a replacement tire on-site instead.
Do you tow?No: No. We are a non-tow roadside company. If your vehicle needs to be moved rather than fixed where it sits, you need a flatbed service — we will tell you that plainly instead of dispatching a truck.
Do you do mechanical repairs?No: No. We fix what strands a driver at the roadside — tires, batteries, jump starts, lockouts and fuel. Alternators, starters, transmissions and collision damage belong in a shop.

What tire repair actually means

Tire repair is the right call for tread punctures from nails, screws, and small road debris. Done correctly — plug from the inside, patched over — a repaired tire is structurally as strong as it was before the puncture.

We follow the industry standard (RMA / TIA): repairs only in the tread, only for punctures up to ¼ inch, and never on a sidewall. If the damage doesn't qualify, we tell you on-site and offer a tire replacement instead.

Repair is cheaper, faster, and often safer than running on a spare for the next 70 miles to a shop. We'd rather repair than replace whenever the damage allows it.

What a real tire repair looks like, step by step

Photographed on one Fort Worth, TX 76109 call, in order: wheel off, then leak found, then plugged & aired up. Our own tech, our own truck — no stock photography.

White cargo van lifted on a yellow 3-ton floor jack with the rear wheel removed and the brake drum exposed during a Fort Worth, Texas 76109 roadside tire repair — Step 1 of a Fort Worth, TX 76109 tire repair: the cargo van is lifted at the manufacturer's jack point on a 3-ton low-profile floor jack and the punctured wheel comes off, so the tire can be inspected off the vehicle instead of guessing at the leak on the ground.
Fort Worth, TX 76109 · September 3, 2026

Removed steel wheel and tire lying on concrete next to a white van on jack stands with the brake drum exposed, during a Fort Worth, Texas 76109 tire repair — Step 2: the wheel is down on the concrete and the tire gets walked around for the puncture. Tread punctures inside the repairable area get plugged on the spot; sidewall damage or a shredded tread doesn't, and we tell the driver straight rather than sending them off on a repair that won't hold.
