Why Drivers Catch Flats In Ward Hill
Ward Hill is a small hilltop neighborhood, the northernmost of Staten Island's chain of hills above Tompkinsville. On stretches like Nixon Avenue and Edgar Terrace and the blocks around them, frost-heaved side streets, nails dropped by contractor trucks, and curb-scuffed sidewalls from tight driveways do most of the damage — so a flat or blowout is one of the most common reasons drivers here call us.
If you've got a usable spare, you're back on the road in short order. The value is a tech telling you whether that tire can be plugged or is done for good.
Caught A Flat In Ward Hill? Do This First
If a tire lets go in Ward Hill, keep a firm grip, lift off the throttle, and coast to somewhere out of traffic before you even think about getting out. Put your hazards on, and on a fast road like Nixon Avenue and Edgar Terrace it's far safer to stay belted in the car until a tech arrives than to crouch by a wheel in a live lane.
Driving on a flat, even a block or two, usually destroys the tire and can ruin the wheel, so it's worth stopping and calling rather than limping along. Once you're safe, note a cross street or landmark so a tech can find you fast, and we'll bring the jack, the tools and the know-how to you.
When Drivers In Ward Hill Call For A Tire Change
Flat Tire On A Steep Ward Hill Street

Curbed A Sidewall In Ward Hill
A curb caught the sidewall while you parked in Ward Hill? That kind of damage isn't repairable, so we mount your spare and point you toward a new tire.
Pothole Damage Near Nixon Avenue
Ward Hill's roads take a beating every freeze, Nixon Avenue and Edgar Terrace included, and a deep pothole can slash a tire or bend a rim in an instant. We come to where it happened, set up safely, and get your spare on.

If There's No Usable Spare
Sometimes the spare isn't the answer. A blowout with no usable spare in Ward Hill means a tow, not a roadside change, and we'd rather tell you that on the phone than leave you stuck waiting for a fix that can't happen.
What Modern Cars Mean For A Flat In Ward Hill
The cars on Ward Hill blocks aren't built like they used to be when it comes to flats. Many models now skip the spare entirely to save weight and space, leaving only a sealant-and-pump kit that can't handle a sidewall cut or a blowout.
Some run run-flat tires that carry you a few miles on low pressure, but they have to be replaced afterward, and there's typically nothing to mount roadside. Nearly all of them also run a TPMS pressure warning; expect it to stay on after a donut or spare change until a shop puts the proper tire back and resets it.
