Three in the morning, a car park thinning out after a shift change, and a nearside tyre flat on the tarmac. Nobody wants that at any hour, but at three it feels worse, because the options shrink to a taxi home and a lost day tomorrow. It does not have to go that way. The reason we run overnight here is that a tyre which has gone down slowly is still worth saving at three, and often will not be by nine if somebody drives it. So we come out, break the casing off the rim, look at the inner liner properly under a light, ream the hole, bond a plug and patch through it to BS AU 159 and put the wheel back balanced. It is the same permanent repair you would get at midday, done while the car sits where it stopped.
An overnight repair follows exactly the same standard as a daytime one, and it is worth being clear about that. Where the damage falls outside the standard you get told at that hour and a replacement goes on from the van, on the drive in Cranford or wherever the car is. Tight in Lampton, easy in Cranford: neither stops the job. Level in Cranford, sloping in Heston: we set the car straight first.

Shift patterns around here run through the night, which is why our phone does too. A puncture found at the end of a late finish in Hounslow Central gets a full inside-out repair the same night, not a can of foam and a promise to sort it properly later.
The driver had a can of sealant in the boot and was about to use it. We asked them to wait, because sealant would have made the tyre harder to inspect and might have finished the pressure sensor. The puncture turned out to be dead centre and perfectly mendable.
Two garages had failed to trace it because they had looked from the outside. With the tyre off the wheel it was obvious: a fine wire had gone through at an angle and was sealing itself while parked. Repaired from the inside and it held.
Stopping on the A314 in the evening is not much fun, so the driver turned into a side street and left it there. That decision saved the tyre. Air pressure gone plus a mile of driving equals a new tyre rather than a repair.
The price is agreed with you before anything is touched, and it is not conjured up on the doorstep. Working through the night is simply part of covering every hour of every day, not an extra bolted on.
Very likely, and worth doing before it becomes a roadside problem. A weekly top-up is a puncture announcing itself politely, and those usually sit within the mendable part of the tread.
They stop you being stranded, which is worth something. But they coat the inside of the tyre, make proper inspection difficult and frequently write off the valve sensor. A real repair is the cheaper end of that trade.
No, when it is done to the standard and within the permitted zone. The patch becomes part of the liner and the tyre carries on to its original rating.
Wherever the car has come to rest, provided it is safe to work there. A quiet street off the A315 is fine. A live carriageway is not, and we will say so.
