A tyre bay on wheels for Lewisham. The changing machine, the balancer and the tyres come to your Brockley bay or Catford drive, and the car does not move until the new tyre is on and torqued.
Cars in Lewisham get stranded in awkward places: a flat in a Brockley permit bay with the A2 red route at the end of the road, a shredded tyre in a Bromley Road retail car park, a run-flat sitting on its rim inside a Deptford estate car park. Taking any of them to a workshop would need a tow, or would ruin the rim. Bringing the workshop to the car removes the problem, and that is what the van is equipped for.
Loaded on the van: a changing machine, a balancer, jack, axle stands, torque wrench and your tyre. At your Ladywell or Sydenham address the car goes up on the jack, the old tyre is pushed off its rim, the new one is seated and inflated, the wheel balanced on the van and bolted back to the right torque. The old tyre is taken for recycling. Name the exact location and parking type when you ring; the total is settled before the van pulls out of NW2.
Any spot where the van can pull up alongside: bays in Brockley, New Cross and Ladywell, drives in Forest Hill, Lee and Grove Park, Catford retail car parks, Deptford estate parking with consent. Never on Lewisham Way, Bromley Road, New Cross Road or the South Circular.

About emergency mobile tyre fitting nationwide → · Emergency mobile tyre fitting on the Lewisham page
A mobile fit in Forest Hill or Catford needs elbow room by the wheel so the jack and tyre changer can work, ground close to level, and a spot the van can take without blocking a neighbour's drive or a bus. Your own permit bay or a private space both suit. With the balancer and stock on board, the car never goes anywhere. Retail car parks along Bromley Road can give that room with the operator's agreement.
The workshop comes to Lewisham: the tyre fitted and balanced beside your own front door.
