A flat tire can happen anywhere and at any time — a nail on the Queensway, a pothole on Rideau Street, or a sidewall blowout on Hunt Club Road. When it does, Ottawa Towing Solutions sends a technician directly to your location to swap the flat for your spare tire safely and efficiently. No need to wrestle with a jack on the shoulder of a busy highway or in a dark parking lot.
Our technicians handle tire changes on all types of vehicles, from compact cars and minivans to full-size pickup trucks. We carry hydraulic jacks, torque wrenches, and impact drivers so the job is done correctly and quickly — usually in under twenty minutes. If your vehicle does not have a spare (many newer models come with only an inflator kit), we can tow you to the nearest tire shop instead.
Ottawa's pothole problem is well known. Every spring, freeze-thaw cycles leave craters across streets in Centretown, Sandy Hill, Vanier, and Old Ottawa South. Hitting a deep pothole at speed can shred a tire instantly. We also see a lot of flat tires caused by construction debris on the 417, particularly during the summer repaving season. Whatever the cause, one call to 613-290-6150 gets a technician headed your way.
After mounting your spare, we always check the tire pressure and torque the lug nuts to the manufacturer specification. We will also inspect the flat to let you know whether it can be patched or needs to be replaced. If you are running on a temporary donut spare, we will remind you of the speed and distance limits so you get to a tire shop safely.
