A bolt from Newham Way found at midnight in a Plaistow bay, with an airport shift at five, can be fixed during the night rather than waiting for a garage to open on Romford Road.
Late repairs in Newham are for early starters. Airport ground crew in Silvertown, hospital staff in Plaistow, market traders heading for Stratford, parents in Manor Park with a school run at eight: they come home along the A13 or A12, see a tyre sinking and need it right by morning. The tyre is sound apart from the hole, so a replacement would be waste; a proper internal repair is what gets the car to the shift.
Under a work lamp in your East Ham bay or Beckton yard the wheel is lifted off and the tyre split from its rim to expose the liner. A puncture in the crown, 6 mm or under, receives a BS AU 159 patch-plug, after which the tyre is remounted, balanced and bolted back on. Should the light show a shoulder cut or a liner ground to dust from running soft, your size may have come along on the van. Its price, quoted when you ring, ignores the clock.

How our 24 hour tyre service works →24 hour tyre repair on the Newham page
After dark, a puncture near Plaistow station or West Ham station is better dealt with on a residential street with streetlights than on Plaistow Road (A112). Tell us the street and the nearest landmark. Our fitter looks at the tread at the roadside, mends it when the hole is in the repairable zone, and offers a replacement tyre when it is not.
Some late calls in Newham cannot finish with a patch. A screw in the shoulder, a torn sidewall or casing destroyed by driving flat along the A13 cannot be patched. If you are asleep in Forest Gate or on a night shift at ExCeL, agree on the call where the car sits and how the locking key is reached, and the fitter works without you there.
