    Can someone please suggest a good vulcanizing shop in the vicinity of Pasig [or anywhere else where the work satisfies you]?

    We all want a good shop with a legitimate pricelist and charges you fairly. We won't mind paying a little extra if they have good equipment and provide good quality work...

    Please people, let's compile good shops for the benefit of everyone

    Best Regards!

    If there is a Goodyear Servitek branch near your area, I think they provide good vulcanizing services.

    It depends on the kind of damage the tire has. A bigger hole will require a bigger "cold patch". I haven't been to Servitek in a while (no flats lately) but I estimate the service to fix a flat tire to be P200-P400. You may consult the yellow pages and give them a call for a quotation.

    Oh, that's a good thing!

    Problema nga lang dun is, mabuti sana if close to an S&R branch ka ma-flat.
    And even if nandun ka nga, sana during hours na bukas sila!

    ===
    Well, I guess you can just get by on the spare muna and bring the tire to them, pero napansin nyo yung trend sa mga OEM supplied spare tires lately like sa Honda CRV? They don't provide a real tire & rim anymore. Talagang designed for temporary/emergency use para makaabot ka lang sa vulcanizing shop.

    Hmm... what if nasa rough/dirt road ka sa province na malayo ang vulcanizing? Kakayanin kaya ng supplied na reserba yun?

    ===
    Honestly, ampanget nga eh, lalo na for vehicles na nasa rear door hatch ang mount ng reserba. A nicely designed & sporty looking SUV, with an "anemic doughnut" spare tire on the back! Talagang cutting corners ang manufacturer.

    Just make sure if they need to plug a leak na cold patch ang gamit nila at hindi tusok.

    Make sure din na may tire changer sila, yung iba mano mano, kawawa ang rims mo. Also, as a personal preference, mas gusto ko tutukuran nya ng jack stand yung vehicle para safe, di ako kampante sa naka tukod lang sa jack, lalo na kung hydraulic, pag di maiwasan, nilalagay ko yung crocodile jack ko as support, mahirap na, baka bumigay or worse kung bottle jack, tumumba.

    Update to my slow leak issue:

    So I went to New Capitol Tire in Kapitolyo after dropping my wife and son at Capitol Commons. They dipped the tire in the water and found the small hole (since there were just small bubbles coming out). The culprit was a headless screw, about a diameter of 25 cents coin in length. They applied a liquid cement and cold patch and problem solved. Tested the tire in the water again and no bubbles came out anymore.

    I took the headless screw as a souvenir/remembrance of my first tire hole issue.

    Wala pa akong ibang kilalang vulcanizing shop kaya dun muna ko nagpagawa. Kumpleto naman sila sa gamit/machine kaya tingin ko okay naman. Damage was P200. Overpriced?
