Emergency Roadside Help in Leicester

When you need help
Leicester has Roadway Assist.

Breaking down is one of the most stressful things that can happen on the road, and in a city as busy as Leicester it can feel dangerous and isolating. Whether you are stuck on the hard shoulder of the M1 at Junction 21, stranded on the A563 Leicester Ring Road during rush hour, or sitting in a car park in Fosse Park with a flat battery, the most important thing is getting the right help to you quickly.

Roadway Assist provides 24/7 emergency roadside assistance across Leicester and all of Leicestershire. Unlike national breakdown clubs that route your call through a call centre, when you call us a real person answers immediately, confirms your location, gives you a fixed quote and dispatches the nearest available technician. No menus, no hold music, no waiting.

Our DVSA-certified technicians carry a full range of tyres, tools and equipment to fix most problems at the roadside on the first visit. We specialise in mobile tyre fitting, battery jump starts and breakdown recovery across the full Leicester postcode area. If we cannot fix the issue on the spot, we recover your vehicle to your chosen garage at no extra charge. And if we cannot fix it, you pay nothing.

We also cover roadside assistance in Birmingham, Coventry and Leeds as part of our growing UK-wide network. Wherever you are in the East Midlands, we are never far away.

Leicester Customer Reviews

What Leicester drivers
say about us.

Had a complete tyre blowout on the M1 heading into Leicester at Junction 21 on a Saturday evening. The car was shaking and I had no idea what to do. Called Roadway Assist and a technician arrived in 16 minutes with the right tyre already in his van. Sorted and back on the road within the hour. Absolute lifesavers. Will never use anyone else.

Mobile Tyre Fitting

Engine completely failed on the A6 London Road coming back from work. I was in the outside lane and genuinely scared. The person who answered was calm and talked me through exactly what to do while the technician was on his way. They recovered the car to my garage in Oadby and I paid nothing because they could not fix it on the spot. The no fix no fee policy is real. Incredible service.

Breakdown Recovery

Battery went flat in Fosse Park car park on a Sunday afternoon with a full shop in the boot. I was expecting to wait for hours. Roadway Assist turned up in 19 minutes, jumped the car and tested the battery properly. Told me exactly what was wrong and what to expect. Honest, professional and fast. Ten out of ten.
