Spotting a screw in the tread late at night in Knowle need not end in a new tyre by morning. Outside normal hours the puncture on your Bentley Heath drive gets repaired, if it passes inspection.
Knowle at night is full of drivers who cannot lose the early morning. A Dorridge commuter has an early train; a Copt Heath driver joins the M42 at J5 before six; a Solihull Hospital shift starts at seven. The pressure warning appeared driving back along the Warwick Road, and a screw sits in the tread. Replacing a tyre that could be mended would be wasteful, so a late visit treats it as a repair unless the liner says otherwise.
After dark, nothing about the repair is shortened. Under van lighting on the Knowle drive, the tyre is prised from its rim and the puncture studied from the inside. A puncture in the central tread band up to 6 mm, on a tyre not run soft, gets a patch-plug bonded in, then refitting and balancing follow. The out-of-hours figure is given on the phone, and a shoulder wound means a replacement is offered and priced first.

Driveways in Knowle village, Dorridge, Bentley Heath or Copt Heath suit a night repair, as does the Dorridge station car park, with the operator's permission. Not a High Street short-stay bay, a dark single-track lane or the M42.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the Knowle page
Night journeys between Knowle and the airport side pass Hampton-in-Arden station, whose car park is a useful place to stop with a punctured tyre. Grange Road, the B4101 through Dorridge, is quieter for anyone closer to home. Tell us where you are, the tyre size and whether a locking nut is fitted.
A late-night call does not always end in a repair. BS AU 159 does not allow a patch on a sidewall or shoulder cut, and a Warwick Road tyre that carried on with no air may have a ruined inner casing, so a replacement goes on instead. If you will be asleep in Dorridge, park on your drive and agree a place for the key. For an early shift, a Copt Heath drive or the Dorridge station car park can be reached.
