A nail found late at night in Corby usually means a repair, not a new tyre. A patch can go in overnight on the drive or beside the Earlstrees unit, so the car is usable by morning.
After dark in Corby, tyre trouble can be a single hole in an otherwise good tyre. A night-shift worker at Earlstrees walks out to a slow puncture, someone in Great Oakley hears a hiss when parking up late, a Priors Hall Park screw shows itself at bedtime. Throwing away a decent tyre makes no sense, but without a fix there is no car for the early start at Eurohub or the station run.
The overnight repair meets the same BS AU 159 rules as a daytime one. Off comes the tyre, the inner liner is examined by torchlight, and a hole no bigger than 6 mm lying clear of the shoulders is closed off internally with a patch-plug before refitting and balancing. Damage beyond those limits is flagged at once, with a replacement offered instead. The repair figure agreed on the call is the same one a daytime Corby job would carry.

Great Oakley, Kingswood and Priors Hall Park drives are best at night, as are the Earlstrees and Eurohub staff car parks with permission. Never on the A43 bypass or the A6116.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the Corby page
Night-time punctures near Raunds can usually be repaired on a residential street off Brook Street or Grove Street, both on the B663, or in Stanwick if you live there. We need light to inspect the tyre, so a lit kerbside is better than a dark verge. Repairable damage is fixed at the car; anything else is quoted as a new tyre.
Not every late Corby puncture can be mended. A screw through the shoulder, a gash across the sidewall, or a casing run flat from Earlstrees to Great Oakley until the lining crumbles will need a replacement, and the fitter says so on inspection. Going to bed or back on shift? Arrange access first: say where the car stands, where you have put the locking key, and whether the gate to the drive will be open.
