A screw found at half past eleven on a Brockley permit street, with a six o'clock hospital shift ahead, can be repaired in the bay overnight rather than left for a garage to open.
Late repairs in Lewisham suit early starters. A porter at University Hospital Lewisham, a Deptford market trader, a Catford parent doing the school run at eight: they get home along the A2 or A21, see the tyre going down and need it mended by morning. A replacement is the wrong answer when the tyre is sound; what they want is the puncture repaired properly, from the inside, so it is forgotten by breakfast.
Under a work lamp in your Ladywell or Sydenham space, the fitter raises the car, frees the wheel and strips the tyre from the rim to inspect the liner. A central hole no wider than 6 mm gets a BS AU 159 patch-plug, remounted and balanced there. Should the inspection show a shoulder hole or a liner damaged from running soft, your size may already be on the van. The repair figure is stated on the call and matches the daytime one.
If the job turns out to be different, see locking wheel nut removal, broken tyre replacement or wheel balancing in Lewisham.
A permit bay near Brockley or Lewisham station, a drive in Forest Hill, Lee or Grove Park, a Deptford estate car park, a hospital car park whose barrier opens for the van at night. Not the A2, A20, A21 or Catford gyratory, whatever the time.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the Lewisham page
Punctures found after dark near Hither Green station or Ladywell station are usually best dealt with on a residential street close by, under a streetlight. Ladywell Road (B236) is a busy route, so avoid stopping on it. Each tyre is checked by the fitter, plugged and patched when the damage sits inside the allowed area, and swapped for a new one when it falls outside.
Sometimes a midnight repair in Lewisham is not on. A screw through the shoulder, a sidewall gash or casing damage from running flat along the A21 all mean a new tyre, not a patch. If you are due to be asleep in Brockley or working a night at the hospital, settle by phone which hiding place gets the locking key and exactly which Brockley bay holds the car, so the fitter can reach it while you are busy.
