How you could deliver this service

A trained adult technician inspects the tyre and wheel in a suitable work area, explains whether the issue is safely repairable and agrees the price before work begins. The vehicle must be secured correctly and suitable tools, protective equipment and manufacturer guidance used throughout. Record the job, test the completed work appropriately and refer unsafe or out-of-scope faults instead of improvising.

Built for Nigerian realities

What to factor in before you set your price

Workshop rent, approved roadside location, compressor power, tools, consumables, protective equipment and safe vehicle support all affect the cost. The service should be operated only by a trained adult in line with local requirements.

Who this business could work well for
  • A trained adult tyre technician who can inspect faults, use workshop equipment safely and explain realistic repair options.
  • Someone who treats customer, road, electrical and workshop safety as non-negotiable.
  • A starter who can choose a suitable location and follow local operating rules.
  • Someone able to record cash, materials, equipment and daily running costs accurately.
