24 hour breakdown and car recovery in Thomastown
Thomastown is a busy junction town on the R700 and the old N9 (now the R448), with Mount Juliet bringing a lot of visitor traffic. We recover regularly from the Mount Juliet estate, the car park at Jerpoint Abbey, the train station and the steep approaches to the old bridge in the town. The road to Inistioge along the Nore is narrow and twisty and claims a few cars every winter. From Thomastown the M9 is a few minutes away at Junction 10 (Knocktopher), so we also act as the local recovery truck for M9 breakdowns between Danesfort and Knocktopher.
Thomastown is the nearest town to M9 Junction 10 (Knocktopher) and is about 10 minutes from Junction 9 (Danesfort). For motorway breakdowns, read our M9 motorway recovery page before you ring, and get behind the barrier first.
Whatever has happened, the service is the same: ring 087 288 2280, speak to Mark, get an honest ETA and a clear price, and we come to you. Flat batteries and punctures are usually sorted on the spot. Anything bigger is loaded on the flatbed and brought home, to Webster's Garage in Three Castles, or to the garage of your choice.
