How the job is done
Found it flat in Brent? Leave it where it is.
In Brent the flat may be waiting on a permit street. The car has sat overnight in Kilburn or Queens Park and one tyre is on the rim. A nail from Park Royal, a failed valve, a sidewall nicked on the Kilburn High Road bus kerb: from the pavement they all look the same. Driving it to a garage along the Edgware Road is the worst move; a few hundred metres on a flat chews up the inner liner and writes off a tyre that could have been patched.
Give the street, say if it is a resident bay rather than a driveway, and quote the sidewall marking if it is legible. The van leaves Adrian Avenue carrying both the repair kit and common sizes, so the inspection and the fix happen in the same visit. The fitter lifts the car in its NW6 bay or on the NW9 drive, takes the tyre off, then patches it from inside or mounts a replacement, with the reason and the price confirmed before he starts.
On run-flat tyres? They behave differently once deflated, so check the handbook's limits and read our page on run-flat tyres; we fit replacement run-flat tyres at the car in Brent as well.
