What We Can Do When You Call

The same four services in all 17 areas. Most calls are flat batteries that a jump start fixes on the spot.

Primary

Jump Start Service

Flat or dead battery? Our mobile jump start technicians restart your car safely at the roadside, home or workplace.

Car Battery Replacement

If a jump start is not enough, we fit a suitable replacement battery at your roadside or driveway.

Breakdown Recovery

When a jump start cannot restart your vehicle, we arrange reliable recovery to a safe destination.

Roadside Assistance

Direct roadside support for jump starts, battery issues and recovery when your car will not start or continue safely.

Not sure if you need a jump start or recovery? Describe the problem and we will tell you.

Common questions

Questions About the Areas We Cover

Coverage, distance and arrival times, answered honestly.

01 Which areas does FastBreakdown cover?

17 towns: Reading, London, Oxford, Basingstoke, Swindon, Winchester, Andover, Southampton, Portsmouth, Guildford, High Wycombe, Bracknell, Maidenhead, Slough, Croydon, Coventry and Camberley. Reading is our base. Each town has its own page listing the postcodes, local areas and main roads we cover.

02 Is the service the same in every town?

The services are the same: jump start, battery replacement, breakdown recovery and roadside assistance. What changes is distance. Reading is our base, so it is usually quickest to reach; for the other towns we attend subject to availability and give you an honest arrival estimate first.

03 What if my town is not listed?

Call us with your postcode. If you are close to one of the 17 towns we may still be able to help, and if we cannot reach you in a reasonable time we will tell you straight away.

04 How quickly can help arrive in my area?

It depends on where you are, traffic and how many calls we already have. We give you a realistic estimate on the phone before anyone sets off rather than a promise we cannot keep.

Still unsure? Call and we will talk you through it.
