The law asks for 1.6mm across the central three quarters of the tread, right the way round the tyre. That number is worth having in your head when a puncture forces a quick decision, because a tyre already close to it is not worth repairing even when the damage sits in a mendable place.
Urgency is the whole character of this job. A school gate, a shift starting out at Denbigh, an appointment on the far side of Milton Keynes: the puncture is not the emergency, the timetable is. So your job jumps the queue and a fitter sets off sooner. Everything after that happens at its proper pace, because a repair done in a panic is a repair done twice. Tread band damage can be mended. Shoulder and wall damage cannot, and you will hear which of the two you have got as soon as anyone can see it.
One puncture should not cost you a whole day, and it usually does not need to. When the job is time-critical we push it up the list and come to you across Buckinghamshire, with everything needed to finish it at the kerb: wheel off, tyre off the rim, damage checked from the inside, a proper internal repair to British Standard, rebalanced and back on. Whether it is Brickfields in rush hour or the A4146 at midnight, we answer. We are out on the A421 at 2am and in Denbigh at 2pm.

The morning peak around Bletchley builds fast and the roundabouts do the rest, so an early call is worth making the moment you spot the problem. We would rather set off before the queues than argue with them, and a car left standing at Water Eaton or Old Bletchley stays repairable while it waits.
A parent in Fenny Stratford came out to a soft rear with the morning already lost. We took the call ahead of a routine job, dealt with a nail sitting nicely in the tread, and the car left only a few minutes late.
A caller due on site at six had picked up a screw the previous evening and had sensibly left the car alone overnight. That decision meant the casing was untouched, so a straightforward repair went on the drive at five.
One urgent puncture turned out to be in a tyre with barely any tread remaining. Repairing it would have been money spent on something due for replacement within weeks, so we said so and fitted a new cover instead.
An earlier arrival, nothing else. We reorder the day so your car is next rather than fourth. The work itself takes as long as it takes, and anyone promising a faster repair is promising a worse one.
Get to the next side road or a car park if the car will manage it slowly, and stop somewhere the fitter can work without standing in a running lane. If it will not move safely, stay put, keep clear of the traffic side and tell us exactly where you are.
Look for what went in and where. A nail head in the middle band is good news. Anything on the curved shoulder or on the wall is not. Photograph it if you can and it saves guesswork at both ends.
Yes, and it happens often enough. A soft tyre with no puncture is usually a valve or a bad bead seal, both of which we can sort while we are there.
Longer than at midnight, and we will tell you honestly rather than quoting a best case. Typically 30 to 60 minutes, sometimes more when the A421 is queuing, and you will know before you rearrange your morning.
