Leamouth is the spit of land where the Lea runs into the Thames, hemmed in by the Lower Lea Crossing and the roundabouts either side of it. A Rescue Tyres van carries the new tyre out to wherever the vehicle is standing.

Addresses here straddle two postcodes, E14 on the Tower Hamlets side and E16 across the water, and the roads are all built for getting past rather than stopping. Something collected on the A1026, or on the way round the Tidal Basin Roundabout, usually leaves enough air in the tyre to reach a parking space, and that space is where the job gets done. Tell us the block or the yard, the postcode, and what is written on the tyre wall, and the replacement rides out with the fitter.

What we do in Leamouth
Tyre work in Leamouth.
Work in Leamouth runs from a car tyre on a riverside deck to a van tyre in a yard. New rubber is ordered against the precise size and rating carried on the sidewall, run-flat and commercial fitments included, and balanced on the wheel before it goes back. Tread damage within what BS AU 159 permits is repaired properly from inside the casing, while anything through the shoulder means a new tyre. Burst covers, kerb strikes off the roundabouts and seized locking nuts fill in the rest, at any hour.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Leamouth
Drives, bays and car parks.
Private decks and gated forecourts under the new blocks are the best surfaces around Leamouth, and the fitter only needs to know how to get in. Yards on the industrial ground off Leamouth Road suit a van or a light lorry once the site has agreed to admit him. Street parking is scarce and the through routes are hostile to anything stationary, so an open public car park is not something to count on. Canning Town, just across the water, is the landmark most callers use to describe where they are.
The calls split neatly. Residents in the newer riverside buildings ring about a car that has stood on a private deck for a fortnight and gone soft on one corner. Drivers of working vehicles ring from the yards and estates off Leamouth Road and the approach to the Silvertown Tunnel, where a tyre has taken a bolt. Both are straightforward, since private ground with space beside the car is precisely what the work needs. What rules itself out is every through road in the district, the Lower Lea Crossing, the tunnel approaches and both roundabouts, since there is nowhere on them a car can safely stand. Leamouth is ULEZ ground like all of Greater London, and a parked car falls outside the charge.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Leamouth.
Nights here belong to the traffic and to shift work. Somebody heading in early from one of the yards, or a driver newly clear of the Lower Lea Crossing with a tyre losing air, gets the same answer as a daytime caller. The phone is picked up, the cost is settled on the call, and the van is loaded for that size.

Leamouth FAQs
Questions from Leamouth.
Is Leamouth in E14 or E16?
Both districts are in use around here, so the postcode tells a fitter far more than a street name does. Give the full postcode and the building or the yard, and the fitter will find you on either side of the water.
Can you attend a van in one of the yards off Leamouth Road?
Commercial work is a large part of what happens on this patch. The site has to agree to let a service van in, and the driver needs the size and load rating off the tyre wall. After that it is changed where the van stands.
My tyre has gone on the Silvertown Tunnel approach. Where do I stop?
Not on the approach itself. Carry on until you are off it and into a street or yard with nothing moving past the car, then call. If it cannot move at all and you feel unsafe, ring 999 and have the car recovered to a safe place.
Do you come out to the new riverside flats?
The blocks along the water are covered, and their parking decks are good places to work. Most have a barrier or a gate, so say which entrance to use and who will open it. The wheel is lifted off in the bay itself and the car never has to be shifted.
