Farringdon keeps unusual hours, and so do its tyre problems.
The better one is that the fitting bay drives to you. The van holds a tyre machine, a wheel balancer, an air line, its own lighting and stock in the sizes most cars, SUVs and 4x4s take, which is everything the job needs from start to finish. By Charterhouse Square or over towards Hatton Garden, the wheel comes off where the car is, the old tyre is stripped from the rim, the new one is fitted and balanced, pressures are set and the scrap leaves with us.
Front tyres wear first, and hills and stop-start traffic make it worse. Anywhere with a lot of braking and turning, Cowcross Street included, chews the outer shoulders long before the middle of the tread goes. Old tyres leave Cowcross Street, Charterhouse Street and EC1M with us, every time. You watch it happen in Smithfield, or at the kerb in Charterhouse Square. An EC1M address in Charterhouse Square and one in Hatton Garden are the same round.

Parking near Cowcross Street and Charterhouse Square is heavily restricted, and Farringdon Road itself is no place to leave a car with a wheel off, so the practical window for a stranded vehicle here is short. A tow means waiting in that window and then losing the car for a day. Finishing at the kerb means the wheel is off, refitted, balanced and torqued in one visit, with the pressures set and the old tyre taken away.
A flat found at Smithfield before five in the morning was changed on the spot, under work lights carried on the van, because there is nothing else open at that hour and nothing to drive to anyway.
A car stopped in a loading bay on Cowcross Street with a shredded tyre had the wheel off and a replacement fitted and balanced quickly, so the bay was not held up longer than necessary.
A sidewall cut picked up on Charterhouse Street cannot be repaired under any standard, because the structure itself has been breached. A matching tyre was fitted at the kerb and the rim checked before it went back on.

Honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! Last night after leaving Wembley we got a flat tyre, stranded 2 hours from home, and these guys got us back up and running. 10/10 service from start to finish, even at 1am!
So glad I called when I got a puncture. They kept me posted, arrived in good time and the price was very reasonable. I felt safe and looked after by their excellent service.
Within an hour Abdul was at my house and it took him 15 minutes to change two tyres. Rapid, polite and with a huge smile. An absolute asset to the company.
Yes, at any hour. Night calls here are common given how early the area starts, and the van carries lighting so darkness makes no difference to the quality of the work.
Usually yes, if the bay is long enough for the car and the van can pull in behind. We keep it tight and quick because loading bays are not somewhere to linger.
The common car, SUV and 4x4 fitments are stocked on the van, and less usual sizes can normally be sourced the same day. Read us the sidewall code and we will confirm before setting off.
Fitting a tyre does not change the alignment. If the damage came from a hard kerb strike near Farringdon Road, that can, and we will tell you if the wear pattern on the other tyres suggests it is worth checking.
Find the locking wheel nut key if the car has one, make sure the car is in a safe spot with the hazards on, and stay off the traffic side while you wait.
