Urgent does not mean a quick repair. It means a quick arrival, and the distinction is worth making because plenty of people ring expecting us to cut the job short for them.
We will not. What speeds up is the response: a van points at you sooner and the deadline you give us on the phone decides where you sit in the day. The repair itself takes as long as it takes, because a tyre patched in a rush is a tyre we will be visiting again. What we can promise is a straight answer within a minute of arriving. Injuries in the tread get sealed properly. Injuries in the shoulder or sidewall do not, whatever time your meeting starts, and you will hear that immediately rather than after twenty minutes of us pretending to think about it.
Urgent does not mean rushed, and it should not mean a worse repair. The method is the same whether you have all afternoon or twenty minutes: wheel off, tyre off the rim, casing inspected from the inside, an internal plug-patch fitted only where BS AU 159 permits one, then rebalanced and pressure-set. From Old Town to Apsley, typical arrival is 30 to 60 minutes with a live ETA. Old Town first, Boxmoor next, the M1 on the way back. Steep camber in Bennetts End? We move a few metres, Grovehill or anywhere else. Blocked drive in Apsley? Open kerb in Adeyfield? Either works.

Getting across this town at rush hour is slow enough without doing it on a compromised tyre, and the fastest roads out are not places to be driving on one. Leaving the car where it is and having a fitter come to it is almost always the quicker route, and our 4.9 star Google rating comes largely from drivers whose morning depended on us turning up when we said we would.
A soft rear found on a driveway with a hospital appointment across the county to get to. The nail sat centrally, so it took a full repair and the appointment was kept without anybody having to rearrange anything.
Shopping loaded, children in the car, and a tyre visibly down. We reached it quickly, found a screw in the tread, and had the wheel back on and balanced before the frozen food was a problem.
The owner needed to leave within the hour and was hoping for a patch. The object had gone in on the curve, which puts it outside what can be repaired safely. We said so and fitted a replacement instead.
Generally between half an hour and an hour. Tell us the actual time you need to be moving and we will be honest about whether we can make it rather than promising and letting you down.
Better not to. Every mile on a deflated tyre reduces the chance of saving it, and a repair is a far better outcome for you than a purchase. If the car is somewhere genuinely dangerous, move it, otherwise leave it and wait for us.
Always. There is no point turning up to an urgent job with only repair kit and then telling somebody to arrange a second visit. Whichever way it goes, it is dealt with in one stop.
The price depends on the work, not on your hurry. You will know it before we begin and it does not shift because you happen to be in a rush.
Then a repair may be poor value and we will say so. Paying to fix a tyre that has a month of legal life left is money you will spend twice, and we would rather tell you that at the kerb.
