A nail found at midnight outside a Canonbury flat calls for a repair before morning, not a replacement. Where it qualifies, the van pulls up by the bay and a patch goes in from inside.
Islington's late punctures are the same screws from Clerkenwell and Old Street sites that cause the daytime ones, just discovered later: a tyre visibly low when the car is parked back in a Finsbury Park bay after a late shift, or spotted by a neighbour in Barnsbury. With a central hole and no driving on it deflated, the tyre can be repaired, and a repair at night keeps the tyre you paid for rather than forcing a replacement.
The tyre machine comes to the bay. Tyre off the rim, inside checked, and a BS AU 159 patch-plug bonded in where the hole is central and no more than 6 mm. The wheel is balanced and refitted. The repair charge, identical by night and by day, you hear before the van sets out from Brent Cross. Should the damage turn out to be beyond repair, the options are explained in the bay.
Our Brent Cross team also offers locking wheel nut removal in Islington, broken tyre replacement and wheel balancing in Islington.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the Islington page
A puncture discovered after a late shift near Archway station or Upper Holloway station does not have to wait until morning. Leave the car in a legal, lit spot on or just off Junction Road, and tell us the street and tyre size when you ring. If the damage is in the repairable zone, the fitter plugs and patches it at the kerbside.
Not every late puncture in Islington can be mended overnight. When the damage reaches the sidewall or shoulder, or the tyre was dragged flat along Holloway Road until the casing is shredded inside, a replacement is the answer, and the fitter will tell you so. If you are asleep or on a night shift, arrange access: leave the car in your Canonbury or Highbury bay, say which pocket or drawer holds the locking key and give us a number to ring on arrival.
