Most of the urgent calls that come in from Chelsea are not write-offs.
It is done properly rather than merely fast. The tyre comes off the rim, the hole is cleaned and reamed square, a combined plug and patch goes in from the inside, and the wheel is balanced before it goes back on the car. A patch pushed in without removing the tyre is not a repair to any standard worth the name, and neither is a can of sealant.
What we will not do, however tight your morning has become, is repair damage in the sidewall or the shoulder, a tyre that has been driven flat for miles, or one already down at the legal limit. Time pressure is precisely when people want to hear yes, and precisely when it matters that they do not.
Urgent means the clock, not just the tyre. Hospital appointment, a delivery slot, someone to collect: those jobs go to the front of the queue and the van heads straight for you in Chelsea. Old tyres leave Sloane Square, World's End and Greater London with us, every time. You watch it happen in Brompton, or at the kerb in South Kensington.

Chelsea generates a steady run of tread punctures because there is nearly always building work somewhere between the King's Road and Fulham Road, and skip lorries shed fixings. The good news is that most of them are repairable if you stop early. Put air in, call, and we will meet you in whatever bay you are sitting in.
A driver on the way to a hospital appointment found a screw in a front tyre with the pressure warning already on. We met them in a metered bay, took the wheel off, repaired and rebalanced it and had them moving again well inside half an hour of arriving.
A car had been driven several miles across town on a run-flat with no pressure in it. The tyre still looked normal from outside. The inner liner had shredded and the sidewall inserts had cooked, so there was no sound surface to bond to and the honest answer was a new tyre.
Someone had emptied a tin into the valve on Sloane Street the night before. It got them home, which is what it is for, but the inside of the tyre had to be scraped and cleaned before anything would stick. The repair still worked; it just took twice as long.

Abdul came and helped me as I was stuck on the side of the road. He came very quickly and was so friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend, great service.
Super fast and efficient service. Came out and fixed my tyre on the spot, even though it was late. Fair price.
Excellent service, extraordinary job. Amazing man helped me at night. Recommend to everyone.
About twenty minutes for a straightforward puncture in the tread, including balancing the wheel afterwards. Balancing is not optional: skip it and you get a vibration through the steering at motorway speed and uneven wear from that point on.
Within the central three quarters of the tread. Punctures in the shoulder or the sidewall are not repairable at any price, because those areas flex on every rotation and no patch will stay bonded there. We show you exactly where the object went in before deciding.
Not fatal, but it makes life harder. The inside of the tyre has to be cleaned back to bare rubber before a patch will hold, which adds time. Sealant is a get-you-somewhere-safe measure and nothing more, and it should be followed by a proper repair rather than forgotten.
Sometimes, if the puncture is in the tread, the damage is small and the tyre has not been driven on at low pressure. Most of the ones we see have been, which cooks the reinforced sidewall from the inside. If that has happened we will say so rather than patch it and hope.
No. A correctly fitted internal plug and patch is permanent and the tyre serves out its normal life at its normal speed rating. There is a limit on how many repairs one tyre may carry and how close together they may sit, and we check that before starting.
