A flat found before the train from Bromley South or Orpington is a morning ruined only if you drive on it. Leave it, send the street, and the fitter comes to the bay.
Flat tyres in this borough are usually discovered rather than felt: a car on a permit street in Anerley that has sagged overnight, a van on a Cray Avenue forecourt, or a family car on a Chislehurst drive before school. Slow leaks from a screw or a corroded rim lose air over days, then the last of it goes on a cold night. Driving even a short way to a Masons Hill bay grinds the sidewall against the road and turns a repairable tyre into scrap.
Give us the postcode, the street and which wheel is down, and whether the tyre was driven at all once flat. The fitter arrives in Anerley with a compressor, lifts the wheel and traces the leak. A screw sitting mid-tread is patched from inside; a weeping valve is swapped; a scuffed sidewall, or a tyre that was rolled along the A214 flat, means a new one from the stock on board. Whichever it proves to be, the Anerley job is priced with you before a wheel comes off.
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 Bromley as well.
Our Brent Cross team also offers broken tyre replacement, emergency tyre replacement and burst tyre replacement in Bromley.
Anywhere the car can sit still on a legal spot: a Petts Wood drive, a Beckenham or Penge permit bay you hold, a residential road near Orpington station. Not in The Glades or Bromley South station car parks, and never on the A21.

Flat tyre: the first steps →Flat tyre help on the Bromley page
Feel the steering pull on Orpington Road or Perry Hall Road, both on the A208, or on Chislehurst Road, the B264, and the first moves are simple: ease off, signal, and find a residential turning wide enough to open the doors without stepping into traffic. Everyone gets out on the pavement side. Look at which tyre has dropped, note the road and the turning you took, then call and we talk through the options.
Walk round the car before calling, because a slow leak on one corner can hide a second soft tyre. Examine the soft one closely for a nail head, a bent or cracked valve and a scrape along the sidewall where it met a Penge kerb. Driving even a short way to a garage on the A214 folds the sidewall and usually ends any chance of repair. Should the boot hold a space-saver, treat it as a slow, short-distance stopgap. Otherwise leave the car on your Anerley street and wait.
