Tyre trouble in New Cross?

Most of the damage here is done by the A2. Loose debris on New Cross Road and Lewisham Way finds tyres at speed, and the terraced streets off them are where the flat gets discovered the next morning. Working on the A2 itself is out of the question, with buses either side and no width to stand in. Move the car into a side street if it will still roll, then send the road name with the size off the sidewall.

What we do in New Cross
Tyre work in New Cross.
Work in New Cross covers new tyres in the size on the sidewall, everyday brands through to premium fitments and run-flats, balanced once they are on. Punctures are inspected off the rim and mended internally when BS AU 159 permits it. A burst tyre is swapped out, with the rim checked over for a flat spot or a damaged lip. A locking nut is removed when the key has gone astray. The line runs 24 hours, weekends included.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in New Cross
Drives, bays and car parks.
A hard standing or a front drive is the best of it, and plenty of SE14 houses have one. When there is none, a kerbside space on a residential street with a car length of room behind it is enough, and the fitter will ask where in the row the car is. Estate yards around Brookmarsh Industrial Estate and the units towards Deptford suit a van when the site agrees. The A2 carriageway, the bus stops and the station approaches are not workable.
Calls come from the terraces of SE14 and SE4 around Telegraph Hill and Brockley, from flats near New Cross and New Cross Gate stations, and from working vehicles on the trading estates over towards Deptford. Off-street parking is patchy: some streets have front gardens turned into hard standing and some have none at all, so a kerbside space is the usual working spot. There is no substantial public car park in New Cross itself, and the New Cross Gate Retail Park and the Asda alongside it are private land, so anyone meaning to use them needs the store's agreement first. SE14 is inside the ULEZ, which bills vehicles that are driven rather than one sitting at a kerb.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in New Cross.
Night work in SE14 follows the A2: drivers who lost a tyre on the way through and pulled off into a side road, and people home late at New Cross Gate finding a wheel down. The call is answered whatever the time, and the price along with a sensible arrival window is settled on it.

New Cross FAQs
Questions from New Cross.
My tyre went on the A2 at New Cross. Where should I pull in?
Into a residential street off New Cross Road or Lewisham Way, with room enough to stand clear of passing traffic. Nobody works on the A2 itself. Should it be immovable, and you are in danger where you sit, ring 999, and us afterwards.
Can you fit a tyre at New Cross Gate Retail Park?
That car park belongs to the retail park and its stores, so permission comes first and a busy weekend is a poor time to ask for it. A quiet residential street nearby, or your own hard standing, gives the fitter more room.
Do you come to the streets around Telegraph Hill and Brockley?
Telegraph Hill, Brockley and the SE4 side are all on the round with New Cross itself. The hill streets are steep in places, so the fitter picks a level stretch to jack from. Give the house number and which way the car faces.
Is a screw in the tread worth repairing?
Often, provided it sits well inside the tread rather than out near the shoulder, and measures less than 6 mm across. The tyre must come off the wheel so the inner liner can be judged. A cut sidewall, or a casing driven while deflated, gets replaced.
