Flat Tire Help in Calgary & Nearby Areas | Spare Tire Changes & Towing

Q: Can a tow truck change a flat tire?

Yes, many towing companies offer flat tire assistance as well as towing. At Zak Towing, our operator can remove the flat and install your spare so you can drive to a tire shop. If the spare isn't usable or the wheel is damaged, we can tow the vehicle instead on the same call.

Q: What if I don't have a spare tire?

Many newer vehicles, including a lot of EVs, come with a tire inflator kit instead of a spare. If the tire can't be safely inflated or the puncture is too large, the vehicle will need to be towed to a tire shop. Tell us your vehicle when you call and we'll arrange the right kind of tow.

Q: Can I drive on a flat tire to get to a tire shop?

It's best not to. Driving on a flat can quickly damage the rim, sidewall and suspension, and it makes the vehicle harder to steer and stop. Only drive far enough at low speed to get out of traffic, then call for help.

Q: When should I call a tow truck instead of changing the tire?

Towing is the safer choice when there's no usable spare, the wheel or rim is bent, more than one tire is damaged, or the wheel can't be removed, for example because the locking lug nut key is missing. It's also the better option if the vehicle is stopped somewhere unsafe to work, like a narrow highway shoulder.

Q: What should I do if my tire blows out on the highway?

Hold the steering wheel firmly, ease off the gas and avoid braking hard. Let the vehicle slow down on its own, then steer gently onto the shoulder and turn on your hazards. If traffic is close, stay buckled in and call for help instead of getting out to inspect the damage.

Q: Can you repair or replace my tire at the roadside?

Our flat tire service covers installing your spare or towing the vehicle to a tire shop. Puncture repairs and new tires are handled by a tire shop, where the tire can be inspected properly. If you tell us which shop you'd like to use, we can take the vehicle there.

Q: How much does flat tire assistance cost in Calgary?

The cost depends on whether we're installing a spare or towing the vehicle, the distance involved and where you're located. We confirm the price over the phone before we dispatch, so you know what you'll pay before we arrive.

Turn On Your Hazard Lights

Keep your hazard lights on to make your vehicle visible to other drivers, especially at night or in poor weather.

Avoid Driving on the Flat Tire

When Does a Flat Tire Require Emergency Towing?

A flat tire does not always require towing, but emergency towing may be necessary when the tire or wheel is severely damaged, there is no usable spare, or the vehicle cannot be safely moved after a roadside tire change. If you are dealing with a blowout, damaged rim, multiple flat tires, or an unsafe roadside position, Zak Towing can provide tow truck flat tire assistance or a flat bed tow truck in Calgary and nearby areas.

Severe Tire Blowout

A badly damaged or blown-out tire may be unsafe to replace or drive on, making professional emergency towing necessary.

Damaged Wheel or Rim

A bent, cracked, or damaged wheel can make your vehicle unsafe to drive, even after fitting a replacement tire.

No Usable Spare Tire

If you have a flat tire but no usable spare is available, a tow truck may be needed to move your vehicle safely.

Multiple Flat Tires

When two or more tires are flat or damaged, roadside tire replacement may not be enough to get your vehicle safely back on the road.

Additional Vehicle Damage

If the flat tire is accompanied by suspension, axle, or accident damage, towing may be required to prevent further vehicle or wheel damage.

Unsafe Roadside Location

If your vehicle is stopped in heavy traffic or another dangerous area, flatbed towing can provide a safer way to move it to a suitable location.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ali did a phenomenal job. My truck broke down while driving home from vacation in BC and he came to rescue me from Field BC. Gave me a price over the phone (cheaper than any others), stuck to it, and drove me all the way back to Calgary. Would highly recommend this company!
