- Great staff and great serviceDavid RushCalled about a puncture. When I got there they had a new tyre in case puncture too close to side wall. That turned out to be the case. Tyre replaced. Whole visit lasted 10 minutes. Very good service.Ian SmithThe staff at Tyre spot Consett were excellent & went over & above. They booked my van in for a service at very short notice. The supplier failed to deliver the correct oil filter & were closed as it was a Saturday. The staff travelled to Gateshead to obtain the part for my van, so I could have my van back for work on Sunday. They stayed back for over an hour after they were closed to complete my van.patrick brannan

- Whilst on our way into Durham City on our way to a function at a local hotel about 10 miles away the tyre pressure warning light illuminated on my wife’s Mercedes showing significant tyre pressure loss in one tyre. We called into Tyre Spot at Durham and explained our predicament. One of the guys immediately stopped what he was doing, checked all tyre pressures, inflated all tyres to the correct pressure and reset the tyre pressure warning on the dashboard, allowing us to continue on our journey within minutes and reach our destination without being late. The tyres have since remained inflated and without any further issues. What an incredible service! A service rarely seen these days! The staff were amazing and couldn’t have been more helpful. No delay, it was like something seen on a F1 pit lane tyre change! We can’t thank Tyre Spot enough and rest assured we’ll now use this company for any further tyre requirements in the future for our cars. Thanks guys, we highly recommend you. 10/10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Frank HewisonThe gentleman that sorted my problem with my van was very helpful and as a result I'll definitely be going backBrian CarsonMy go-to company when it comes to repairs or servicing. They are very friendly & keen to help. Reasonably priced & they now have a free to join club that offers discounts on certain things, along with text messages to remind you of MOT dates & the like.GothBoy UK

I've always used Tyre Spot Houghton and always recommend them.Colin YoungExcellent local business, helpful, polite, quick and reasonable prices too. Shop local.Graeme PeardonSuperb service. I took my car in with a suspected slow leak on my tyre. They couldn't find anything wrong with the tyre so replaced the valve. Really quick and efficient service and didn't charge a penny for replacing the valve, which subsequently fixed the problem. Cheers lads!Christopher Kelsey - Staff is always happy to help.
