A tyre is allowed more than one repair in its life, and the rules about it are more specific than most people expect. Repairs have to sit within the central three quarters of the tread, and two of them cannot sit on top of one another or overlap, because each patch needs sound material all around it to bond to. There is also a practical limit on how many a casing should carry before it stops being sensible, and a tyre collecting punctures faster than that is usually telling you something about where it is being driven.
That matters at three in the morning because we find second and third objects fairly often. A tyre comes off the rim to deal with one nail and there is another, older one sitting quietly in the tread that nobody knew about. Both get assessed, both get sealed if they can be, and if the spacing does not allow it you are told before anything is charged for.
The temptation at 1am is to pump it up and deal with it tomorrow. We come out at that hour in Wellingborough, get the wheel off and inspect the tyre from the inside before deciding anything, then repair to British Standard where the damage qualifies. You watch it happen in Redhill Grange, or at the kerb in Queensway. Same tools in Croyland as in Finedon, same on every call.

The distribution units and access roads off the A509 and A4500 shed a steady supply of screws and offcuts, and a good share of the punctures we deal with around Wellingborough started in a yard rather than on a main road. If you work on one of those sites, it is worth a glance at the tread now and then, because a tyre carrying two objects is a tyre with far fewer options left.
Found once the tyre is off the rim and turned over. It has usually been there for weeks, sealing its own hole, and it would have failed at some point on the A45 rather than on a driveway.
Patches need sound rubber all round to bond to, so two holes very near each other cannot both be repaired. That is a replacement, and it is better to know at midnight than to find out later.
If the same tyre collects a nail every few weeks, it is worth looking at where the car parks and what it drives over. The yards and access roads around the logistics parks are the usual answer here.
More than one, provided each sits in the repairable band and they are properly spaced. There is a sensible limit and we will tell you when a casing has had enough.
No. Each patch needs undamaged material around its edge to bond to, and overlapping repairs do not hold. That combination means a replacement.
The whole inside surface, every time. That inspection is a large part of why the tyre comes off the rim rather than being plugged from outside.
24 hours a day, every day of the year, including the A45 corridor and the estates. Typical arrival is 30 to 60 minutes.
No. The price agreed before we set off is the price you pay at any hour and on any day.
