I think the starter motor has gone in my car,it won’t switch on,considering calling a breakdown company but will they be able to fix it as as far as I can tell online I have to order a part specific to my car,should I do this first?

What do you mean at the roadside? Like can you replace it on the shoulder of the road?
What car is it? You might be able to pick one up at autozone or similar for cheap if it’s a common car.
Like if I called the AA would the guy have the part to fix it or would I have to order it anyway?
Do you know it is the starter or are you just guessing?
Just because a car won’t start doea not mean it is the starter… It can be anything from battery, fuel, one of dozens of sensors not reading correctly, dead key, immobilizer issues, computer modules no good, vehicle possessed by the spirits of the damned…
What makes you think it is the starter?
Also what makes you think anyone here could give you any sort of answer when you don’t bother telling us whatever the fuck you are driving??? Is it a Dodge Caravan? Perhaps a Dacia Sandero??? Or maybe a Honda Super cub?
Automotive starters are not normally repairable in the field. It is much more common today to replace them.
