A screw in the tread that turns up late on a Kingstanding drive is not a new-tyre job. It is repaired overnight where the car sits, and the repair matches a daytime job in every way.
A pressure warning on the way back from the A34 at 11pm, a nail noticed while unloading the boot on a Hawthorn Road drive, a soft tyre at 4am before a taxi shift off the Circle: these can be repairs, not replacements, at any hour in Kingstanding. The shop parades are a source of screws. So long as the hole is under 6 mm across and well inside the tread, away from the shoulder, the night-time fix is identical to the daytime one.
By lamp, with the car on your drive, the tyre is dismounted, the hole is patched and plugged from the inside, and the wheel goes back balanced and torqued. Leave any sealant can in the boot, because it coats the liner and kills the repair. The hour on the clock is not reflected in the repair price you are given. Should the tyre turn out to have a pothole bulge or a shoulder hole, you get a price for a replacement before anything is fitted.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the Kingstanding page
A late puncture around Wylde Green station or along Boldmere Road (B4142) can often be repaired on the spot. Residential roads off the main routes are quieter after dark and easier for the van. Tell us the street, snap the offending screw for us, and you will hear straight away whether a repair under the standard is possible.
Sometimes the answer at 1am is no repair. A nail lodged at the shoulder, a Warren Farm Road speed cushion gash, or a tyre run flat from the A34 until its inner wall is shredded cannot be patched, and a replacement is quoted instead. If you will be asleep before a taxi shift, leave word about the locking key's hiding spot and check the car can be got at, on the drive or by the Hawthorn Road kerb, not hemmed in by another car.
