Nail spotted after dark in Rose Hill, pressure dropping on a van parked on the Keyway overnight: an out-of-hours repair in Willenhall saves the tyre before it goes completely flat.
The night repair is for a Willenhall tyre still holding some air. A driver back along Lichfield Road at eleven notices the warning light, a van left at a Keyway unit after a late shift has a screw in the rear tread, a car on a Portobello street hisses faintly under the lamp. Wait until morning and the tyre may be flat and then driven on, which damages the inside so badly that only replacement remains.
The van arrives with lamps, repair materials and a spare tyre in the right size in case, but the plan is to repair. On the Lane Head drive or in the yard the wheel is removed, the tyre opened and the puncture measured; a Willenhall hole lying mid-tread and not beyond 6 mm gets a BS AU 159 repair, plug through the hole and patch across the liner, then the wheel is rebalanced. The repair price, unaltered after dark, is given before setting off.

A puncture discovered late at home in Heath Town, Fallings Park or Park Village can be repaired on the street outside, so long as the parking is legal and a streetlight or porch light helps. With the tyre off the wheel, the fitter looks for liner damage from running flat, and repairs it only if the hole is within the permitted tread area.
Running a leaking Willenhall tyre flat is what ends most chances of a night repair, because the rim crushes the casing from within. Other limits apply at any hour: a screw in the shoulder or a sidewall cut is outside BS AU 159, and a replacement is quoted first. If you will be asleep in Short Heath or at work on the Keyway, settle a spot for the key and position the car so its damaged wheel can be reached, not tight against a Portobello kerb.
