A car with a flat sitting in a bus lane at eleven at night is a specific kind of urgent. The lane may be in operation, the camera does not know why you are stopped, and the vehicle is in a place where buses are moving through at speed. Even where the restriction has lifted for the evening, it is the worst place on the road to be stationary. If it is at all possible to get the car out of the bus lane and onto a side street before anything else, that is the first move, even if it means rolling it a short distance on a flat.
That is one of the few situations where a short, slow move is the lesser risk. Once the car is somewhere safe, hazards on, ring us. Vans run right through the small hours over N7, bring lamps of our own, and do the job beside the vehicle without needing it moved again. Where the injury can be mended it is, and where it cannot a new tyre goes on, with the pressures set before the old one goes in the van. Same price at midnight as at midday, and no answering service in between.
Bank holiday Monday, the school run, half past eleven at night: tyre trouble has no sense of timing, and neither have the places that are shut when it happens. The phone is answered round the clock and a van is dispatched round the clock, to Hillmarton, Lower Holloway and everywhere between, every day of the year including the ones nobody wants to work. Tight in Nag's Head, easy in Hillmarton: neither stops the job. Level in Caledonian Road, sloping in Tufnell Park: we set the car straight first. From Emirates Stadium through Tufnell Park to Nag's Head, it is one round.

Holloway is dominated by the A1, with the Nag's Head junction busy well into the night and the surrounding side streets permit only and parked solid. That gives you two problems at once: a bad place to stop and nowhere better to go. Getting the car onto a side turning and calling a fitter to it is nearly always the right sequence, and we run all night to make that possible.
A driver on Holloway Road got the car twenty metres into a side turning before ringing. The tyre was already ruined, so the short move cost nothing and made the whole job safe.
A flat found late on a permit street with cars either side. We took the traffic side and lit it ourselves and the vehicle never left its space.
Someone finishing work near the Nag's Head at half past midnight with a puncture. Repairable, so it was fixed there and the car went home the same night.
If the tyre is already destroyed, usually yes, slowly and only far enough to get somewhere safe. If it is merely soft and you are safe where you are, stay put and let us come to you.
Yes, every night of the year. We attend both the main road and the side streets around it, and you get an honest arrival estimate when you call.
No. Once you are somewhere safe we work beside the vehicle exactly where it stands, including on a narrow permit street with cars either side.
No. The figure is the same at any hour of any day, confirmed on the phone before we set out.
