Picked up a screw on the M5 late in the evening? If the hole qualifies, it is repaired overnight off the motorway, and the car is usable again by breakfast.
The late-evening puncture is its own problem. You reach home in Smethwick or Quinton after a long drive down from the M6, the tyre is half down, and work starts at eight. No tyre bay opens before then, and a replacement feels excessive for a single screw in the tread. What you actually want is the hole sealed properly overnight, so the car drives normally by the time the alarm goes off.
That is a repair job, not a sale. Tell us it is a puncture, where the object is and roughly how far the car went after the warning. After midnight the fitter still removes the tyre and inspects the inside, because a night job gets the same BS AU 159 standard as a daytime one. Pass, and it is plugged and patched; fail, and you are told before anything else happens. The night price, the same as by day, is stated first.
Need something else? Our pages on locking wheel nut removal on the M5 and flat tyre help on the M5 explain those jobs.
Home streets in Quinton, Smethwick and Oldbury, a Halesowen town centre car park, with the owner's consent, or Frankley services all work at night. A car still on the M5 needs to be off at a junction before we set out.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the M5 page
Night repairs for M5 drivers coming off at J4 towards south Birmingham are best arranged at a point you can name, such as Northfield station, Selly Oak station or Selly Oak Retail Park. The A38 links them. The fitter checks the hole against the repair rules before deciding on a plug and patch or a new tyre.
Not every M5 puncture can be sorted in the night. A nail or cut high on the wall or at the tread's outer edge lies beyond the BS AU 159 repair zone, and if the tyre was run flat across the viaduct to J2 the casing is likely crushed, so replacement it is. If you plan to sleep in Oldbury or be at work in Halesowen when the fitter comes, agree access on the call and leave the car reachable on the street or drive, not in a locked yard.
