The A13 has no verge anybody sane would stand on. It runs fast in both directions, it stays busy well past midnight, and a car halted on the edge of it is in about the worst position a car can occupy. Away from it the Heathway is calmer but parked solid, and the turnings through Becontree are bumper to bumper from teatime onwards.
None of that is an argument for leaving a punctured tyre until Monday. It is an argument for having it dealt with wherever the car came to rest, at whatever hour that happens to be. The reason the hour counts is simple. A tyre with a nail in it and pressure still behind that nail is a repair; drive it a few miles along the A1306 and it usually is not. Working through the night is not a luxury, it is the cheaper option turning up earlier. Off comes the tyre, the casing is read from the inside where the truth is, the puncture is cleaned and sealed to BS AU 159, and the wheel goes back balanced.
Round-the-clock only means something if the van carries enough to finish. Ours carries the fitting gear, the balancer, valves, lighting and stock in the common sizes, at every hour right across Greater London. From Chadwell Heath to Dagenham Heathway, any night of the year. School run in the Marsh Green area or 1am in Rush Green, we answer the same. Christmas Day in Becontree, any day in Chadwell Heath: the line is open.

The stretch of the A13 alongside this area throws up a lot of debris, and the estate roads collect the rest of it. Most of what we pull out of tyres in RM9 and RM10 is roofing nails, screws and the occasional bit of banding wire, and nearly all of it sits in the tread where a proper repair is allowed.
Night shifts finish at odd hours and cars get parked by people too tired to check anything. Discovering it at three rather than at seven is good news, because at three there is still air in the tyre and nobody has driven it anywhere.
Industrial estates and yards are full of dropped fixings, and they end up in tyres. Ring before you set off rather than after, and the repair happens where the car is standing instead of somewhere expensive halfway home.
Slow punctures rarely announce themselves. A screw can sit in the tread for weeks holding most of the air in, then shift slightly and let go all at once. Finding it means separating the tyre from the wheel and looking, which is a ten minute job with the right kit.
Yes. The whole area is worked around the clock, all year, and nights are among the busier shifts because that is when people get home and notice.
No. It is the same permanent repair a good fitting bay would carry out, done to the same written standard, with the same balance afterwards. There is nothing to go back and redo.
By eye and by touch first, then with water if it is hiding. Air escaping under pressure makes bubbles, and bubbles are difficult to argue with.
It gets handled carefully and checked before the tyre goes back. Sensors are the usual casualty of aerosol sealant, which is one more reason we do not use the stuff.
It can, so long as the wheel is reachable and we can settle up in the morning or over the phone. Plenty of cars round here get repaired while their owners sleep.
