Most tread punctures are repairable with a proper internal patch and plug, far cheaper than replacing and just as safe when done to standard. We get the wheel off, water-test for the leak, and tell you honestly if the damage is in the safe zone or too close to the sidewall. Kerbside repairs around Angel, Canonbury or Barnsbury usually take under an hour, and we run seven days a week so you are not left waiting around.
Islington's busy streets, Upper Street, Essex Road and City Road, are forever full of delivery vans and roadworks, and that traffic scatters nails, staples and metal across the road. We get a lot of clean tread punctures here, picked up by cars in the permit bays nearby. Because so many are repairable to BS AU 159, we can usually patch them where the car sits and save local drivers the cost of replacement, all without them giving up a hard-won parking space.
The puncture repair situations Islington drivers call us out to most:
A car parked off Upper Street picked up a nail from the constant deliveries. It was dead centre in the tread, so we repaired it on the spot.
A Barnsbury resident kept topping up a soft tyre every few days. The water test found a fine staple, and a patch fixed it without losing the bay.
Roadworks on City Road left sharp offcuts about, and one lodged in a tyre. The damage was repairable, so we patched it rather than replace it.
We also attend roadside puncture repair on the main routes through Islington, including Upper Street, Holloway Road (A1), City Road and more — day and night.
If the damage is in the central tread and not too large, usually yes. We always check this first to save you money.
It is a repair to the recognised British Standard, an internal patch and plug, making it safe and permanent.

I used their service to fix a punctured tyre. They arrived within 45 minutes and replaced my tyre. Highly recommend for urgent tyre service.
So glad I called when I got a puncture. They kept me posted, arrived in good time and the price was very reasonable. I felt safe and looked after by their excellent service.
Within an hour Abdul was at my house and it took him 15 minutes to change two tyres. Rapid, polite and with a huge smile. An absolute asset to the company.
