Leaving a puncture until the garages open costs you twice, and only one of the two costs is the queue. The first is your morning, because a tyre place has a full book by half eight and you are late either way. The second is the tyre. Getting it there means driving on it soft, and driving on it soft is what turns something repairable into something that goes in the bin.
Plenty of people around here will not be awake at nine in any case. There are drivers pulling out of West Ham and Maryland at half four for a five o'clock start, and shutters that stay down until eight are no use to any of them. That is the real reason for working nights. The tyre comes off the wheel on the street where the car is parked, the inside of the casing gets checked over, and a puncture in the central band takes a combined stem and patch bonded in from the inside, to the British standard, with the wheel balanced afterwards. The car is fit to drive before the alarm goes off.
Punctures do not keep opening hours. A screw picked up on Blackwall Tunnel approach at eleven at night is still a screw at six the next morning, only by then you are late as well. Ring at 3am from Maryland and someone answers; Bow at noon is no different. A 4am Maryland call and a noon Bow call reach the same fitter. An E15 address in West Ham and one in Pudding Mill are the same round.

Stratford keeps early hours. A lot of the people driving out of E15 and E20 before dawn are heading for shifts that begin while most tyre places are still locked up, and the traffic that chokes the Bow Road gyratory by eight simply is not there at five. Working those hours suits both sides: you keep the shift, and we get a clear run at the car while the roads around you are still empty.
A flat found on the way out of the front door, with no time left to do anything but panic. We were there while it was still dark, repaired it at the kerb, and the driver clocked on at the usual hour.
Nowhere else to leave the car, no driveway, and a bay that had to be given up in the morning. The whole job was done in the bay overnight, which was the only way it was getting done without a tow.
A screw picked up on the way home and a Monday that could not be missed. Being open on a Sunday night is the entire point of it. The repair itself was ordinary, which is exactly how it should be.
Yes, and those calls tend to be easier than daytime ones. The roads are clear so we reach you quickly, and there is room to work beside the car instead of squeezing in between parked bumpers.
Less than you would expect. There is no rattle gun going. The wheel nuts are cracked off with a bar and torqued back by hand, and the loudest part of the job is the compressor for a few seconds at the end.
The hour makes no difference to what you pay. You are quoted before we set off and that is the figure, whether it is a Tuesday afternoon or four on a Sunday morning.
Not usually. What we need is the width of a person alongside the car and somewhere to stand the wheel, which a resident bay generally gives. If the space looks impossible we will say so on the phone instead of finding out on arrival.
Now, if you would rather sleep. It gets fixed either way, but a tyre that is down overnight is sometimes flat by morning, and the difference between calling at midnight and calling at five is whether your day starts already behind.
