A screw found after midnight coming off the M6 Toll should not cost a whole tyre or a missed shift. We patch-plug it overnight where the car is parked.
A night puncture near the toll road can be a small one: a screw collected somewhere between Weeford and Great Wyrley, a hiss heard as the car rolls onto a Burntwood drive after a late return. Nothing locally opens before morning, and a Cannock tyre shop at nine may simply sell you a new tyre. For many drivers the car is needed for a dawn start, which is exactly when an out-of-hours repair earns its keep.
Ask specifically for a repair when you ring, and describe where the screw or nail sits across the tread. The fitter arrives in the small hours, takes the tyre off and looks over the inner liner. If the hole is 6 mm or less, clear of the outer tread edges and the casing is sound, BS AU 159 allows a patch-plug. Lichfield overnight pays daytime rates, fixed on the call, and a new tyre only comes up if the standard rules the repair out.
The same Brent Cross team also handles locking wheel nut removal and emergency tyre replacement on the M6 Toll, booked on the same call.
A Burntwood, Cannock or Lichfield driveway suits a small-hours repair best, or failing that Norton Canes services. A puncture is never repaired beside the toll plazas or on the M6 Toll carriageway.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the M6 Toll page
For a night repair after leaving the M6 Toll at the southern end, Erdington station, Chester Road station and Wylde Green station give three reference points on named roads. Stop near one of them, out of the way of traffic. The fitter decides whether the puncture can be repaired once the tyre is off the wheel.
An overnight repair on an M6 Toll puncture is not always possible. Damage in the sidewall or on the tread edge falls outside the BS AU 159 repair area, and running flat from T4 to Norton Canes typically breaks down the casing, leaving replacement as the only safe answer. If you will be asleep in Lichfield or working nights in Walsall, explain on the phone how the fitter can get to the car, and leave it on a drive rather than behind a gate.
