A nail found at 11pm on a Penge street can be repaired overnight rather than replaced. The fitter patches it at the kerb so the car is ready for the early train.
Screws from the Cray Avenue estates and nails picked up on the A232 are the sort of damage a Bromley driver finds at night, noticed when they get home to Anerley or Elmers End and hear the hiss. A tyre with a small hole in the centre of the tread needs no replacement merely because it is dark. The repairable band does not shrink after dark, and the fitter carries the tools to dismount, patch and rebalance under a work lamp.
Call with the postcode and which tyre is down. Leave any screw in place; it slows the leak and marks the spot. Under a work lamp on your Penge street the wheel is lifted, the tyre parted from the rim and the inside checked. A hole in the centre three-quarters and under 6 mm gets a patch-plug to the British Standard; a sidewall or shoulder hole cannot be repaired and a replacement is offered. You settle what the fix costs before the van leaves; darkness does not raise it.
If the job turns out to be different, see locking wheel nut removal in Bromley, wheel balancing or flat tyre help in Bromley.
A lit Beckenham or Penge bay you hold, a driveway in Hayes or Petts Wood with the porch light on, or a quiet road near Orpington station. Not the A21 or A20, and nowhere inside a private car park.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the Bromley page
Late trains into Petts Wood station leave plenty of people walking back to a car that has slumped on one corner, sometimes in Petts Wood Station Car Park. Once it is moved to a residential road in Crofton or a drive close by, an overnight repair can happen right where it stands, provided the hole sits away from the shoulders of the tyre. Tell us the street and which corner is soft.
A night repair only works when the hole is in the central tread. A screw in the shoulder, or any cut in the sidewall, means a replacement instead, and so does a tyre driven flat along Croydon Road, because running without air crushes the casing from within. If you will be asleep in Elmers End or working late in Bromley town, leave the car on a public road or your drive, say where the locking key is and we arrange access.
