Can it be sorted before the school run? Nearly always, and the honest answer turns on one thing, which is not how fast we drive. It is where the nail went in. A puncture in the middle band of the tread can be taken out, plugged and patched properly, balanced and bolted back on inside the hour. One that has gone through the shoulder, or anywhere on the wall, cannot be repaired by anyone, and pretending otherwise would put you back on Tottenham Lane on a tyre that could let go.
Priority at our end means we move you up the list and set off sooner. It does not mean the work is hurried. The tyre still comes off the rim, the casing is still read from the inside, and the wheel is still balanced before you pull away. When somebody rings from Harringay at ten past eight with a car full of children, that is the part they need to hear said plainly.
You will get a time, not a window, and that is most of what an emergency service is for. Behind it is a straightforward job done properly: the wheel comes off where the car is, on Tottenham Lane or on a drive, the tyre is inspected from the inside, and a repair to British Standard goes in where the damage permits. Old tyres leave Turnpike Lane, Ferme Park and N8 with us, every time. You watch it happen in Ferme Park, or at the kerb in Harringay. N8 takes in Crouch End and Turnpike Lane, and we work the lot.

The traffic between Hornsey High Street and Wood Green is exactly what you do not want to be sitting in on a deflating tyre with somewhere to be. Leave the car parked, call it in, and let the fitting van do the queueing instead of you.
Flat found on the way out of the door. The car was left where it stood, the children went on foot, and the wheel was back on and balanced by the time the second lesson started. The tyre had a drywall screw in it and the tread carried on wearing exactly as before.
Right at the edge of the tread, where the rubber starts curving over. That one is outside what may be repaired, and we said so at the kerb rather than after taking the wheel off. A replacement went on the same visit and the car made its appointment.
A rota start is as fixed as a train. The call came in with forty minutes on the clock, the damage was central, and a permanent repair fitted inside that window. Rushing to the car is our problem. Rushing the patch is nobody's.
Typically 30 to 60 minutes across this part of North London, and often at the shorter end because our rounds already run through N8. Whoever answers the phone will give you a real time rather than a comforting one.
No, because the speed is all in the travelling. Once the wheel is off, the sequence is fixed and takes as long as it takes.
Please do not. A short crawl on a soft tyre is what turns a repairable puncture into a scrapped casing. Park it, leave it, and ring.
Position first, then size, then whether the tyre has already been run flat. Two of those three we can only judge with the tyre off the wheel.
Yes. We cover cars, SUVs and 4x4s, and the bigger wheels are routine work for us rather than something we have to arrange.
