A sidewall torn on a Walworth Road kerb, the car needed for a Denmark Hill appointment in a few hours. The correct size comes to Elephant and Castle and is fitted once you are off the red route.
One glance is enough for some Southwark tyres: a shoulder split at the Elephant and Castle junction, a tyre driven flat the length of Walworth Road, a sidewall opened up by a Camberwell New Road kerb. There is no repair for damage like that. If the car has to move today, for a Denmark Hill hospital appointment, for work in Bankside, for the school in Dulwich, what is needed is a tyre in the right size brought to it.
Send the sidewall size, a photo showing the damage and the car's spot, whether a Walworth estate bay or a Camberwell permit street, to 07473 720871. If your size is one the van carries, the replacement can go on at once; an uncommon size is collected first, and the call makes clear which applies. Fitted, balanced, torqued, then the other three tyres checked for pressure and for the same kerb damage.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the Southwark page
In Bermondsey and Rotherhithe, a flat on Rotherhithe New Road (A2208) or Southwark Park Road (A2206) is dealt with where the car stands. Pull into a road on the Astley Estate or around Bermondsey Spa, only where parking is allowed, and note the block or street name. Send the tyre markings and a map pin showing where the car stopped, and the replacement is sourced before the fitter sets off.
Southwark cars get their replacement right on the first attempt when the whole sidewall is photographed, not just the size. That picture captures the load figure and speed letter, plus lettering such as XL or RFT. Add a shot of the partner tyre across the axle, so the newcomer can pair with it. One stock query comes up when you ring: same brand, or a comparable one if that is what the van holds. A Walworth estate car park or the Maudsley car park gives the van standing room.
