Around Chancery Lane and the streets off Gray's Inn Road almost every space is metered or permit, and almost all of them are time limited. So the first question people ask is not about the tyre at all. It is about the bay, and what happens if the session runs out while the car is sitting there on a flat.
The honest answer is that the meter is a small problem dressed as a big one. Most of our Holborn jobs are finished within the hour of the phone call, which is usually less time than is left on the ticket. Where it is going to be tight, say so when you ring and the call moves up the order. If you are in a loading bay with a strict limit, mention that too, because those are the ones that get watched. What you should not do is start the car and go looking for a longer stay. One circuit of the one way system around High Holborn and Theobalds Road on a flat tyre is a few hundred yards of sidewall being destroyed and quite possibly an alloy with it, and no parking charge compares to that. Extend the session from your phone if the app allows it, stay out of the traffic, and let it be dealt with where it stands.
A tyre can go flat without ever being punctured. We come to where the car is, High Holborn, Red Lion Square or anywhere between, get the wheel off and find which it is, then clean and reseat, replace the valve, repair to standard or fit a replacement as the case requires. On Chancery Lane, day or night, Red Lion Square included, arrival across WC1V runs 30 to 60 minutes. We are out on Gray's Inn Road at 2am and in Theobalds Road at 2pm.

Holborn parking is the whole of the difficulty. High Holborn carries constant buses and taxis with nowhere to stop, Theobalds Road and Gray's Inn Road stay busy at every hour, and the bays around Lamb's Conduit Street and Red Lion Square fill early and run on a clock. A tyre that has gone in one of those bays feels urgent because of the parking rather than because of the tyre. Tell us about the clock, leave the car in the bay, and let us beat it.
A driver on a metered space with the clock running down and the nearside front flat. We reached him with time in hand and the car left the bay legally under its own power. The alternative had been a lap of Holborn on a ruined tyre.
A strict limit and a car that could not move. He said so on the phone, which is exactly right, and the call was handled as urgent rather than routine because of it.
No meter, no clock and no pressure of any kind. She left the keys at reception and came down at the end to pay by card. When the parking is not a factor these jobs are as simple as they sound.
Extend it on the app if you can, and tell us when you ring so we know there is a clock on it. What you should not do is drive the car to a longer stay bay, because that trip is the part that costs real money.
Considerably, and it is not a close call. A short drive on a flat can take out the tyre and the wheel together. Parking risk is annoying and finite, while wheel damage is neither.
Yes, and it is a large part of what we do across WC1. We pull in behind the car, work in the space between the two vehicles and leave the bay exactly as we found it.
Typically 30 to 60 minutes from the call, and the work itself is quicker than that once we are with you. If traffic on High Holborn is going to stretch it, you get told rather than guessed at.
Perfectly well. Give us the street, the registration and the colour, leave keys with reception if the car needs opening, and we ring you when it is finished.
