A tyre shedding a couple of pounds of pressure a night is invisible for about a week, and then one morning it is not. That is how most punctures announce themselves: not with a bang but with a gauge reading that keeps drifting and a warning light that starts appearing earlier each day. Catching it at that stage is what makes a permanent repair possible. Off comes the wheel, then the tyre from its rim, and a lamp goes inside the casing to find what the tread face hides. Clean out the hole, bond a plug and a patch over it from within to the BS AU 159 standard, then balance the wheel on the way back. We do that at whatever hour you notice it, because noticing it usually happens at an inconvenient one.
Bank holidays are the worst of it. Not here: dispatch runs 365 days a year across HA8, and the van carries what it needs to finish the job on the spot. It makes no difference whether the car is in Canons Park or Edgware Town, or which hour of which day it is. Whitchurch Lane, the M1 and the streets around Stonegrove sit inside HA8. A 4am Burnt Oak call and a noon Canons Park call reach the same fitter. Whether it is Canons Park in rush hour or Watford Way at midnight, we answer. The HA8 postcode and a street in Stonegrove: that is enough.

The A5 runs the length of this town and collects everything that falls off everything else, which is why we see so many nails and screws in HA8. Ring when you first notice the pressure dropping rather than when the tyre finally gives up, and the odds of keeping the tyre you already own go up considerably.
A driver had been calling in at an air line twice a week for a month and treating it as normal. A water test found a tack head sunk flush into the tread. Twenty minutes of work put an end to a month of stopping for air on the way to Hendon.
Home late, tyre almost down on the rim, and a decision to make about the morning. Because it had been driven gently and stopped early, the casing was undamaged inside. Patched from within and rebalanced, and nothing about the tyre had to be bought.
A patch adds a small amount of weight in one place, and on a wheel turning at motorway speed a small amount is enough to be felt through the steering. Rebalancing is part of the repair rather than an extra. Skipping it is why some repaired tyres develop a vibration on the A41.
Sometimes, if the punctures are in the repairable band and not close together. There is a limit, and we will tell you plainly when a casing has had enough rather than patching it again.
They seal from outside without anybody looking inside the tyre. If the nail has been chewing at the liner, a plug hides that instead of finding it. They are a get you home measure at best.
The work is the same at four in the morning as at four in the afternoon, and you hear the figure before anything begins in both cases. The hour is your convenience, not a lever.
Long enough for the wheel to come off, the tyre to be worked on and the wheel to go back. You are not losing a day and there is nothing to drop off anywhere.
Almost never. That is the point of a fitting van turning up. Do not drive it looking for help, because the mileage done flat is what decides whether the tyre survives.
