Puncture Repair in Old Street
A repair does not reset a tyre. Every one that goes in is permanent and plainly visible from the inside, and the next puncture is judged with the previous ones sitting in front of you.
Mobile puncture repair across Old Street
In practice it is a simple thing to check and an occasionally awkward thing to say. The tyre comes off the wheel, the liner in a sound tyre is smooth and even, and any previous repair stands out against it immediately. We count them, measure where the new damage sits in relation to them, and tell you which of the two answers you have. One tidy patch in the middle of the tread does not compromise a tyre and never has. Three, with a fourth wanted alongside them, is a different conversation, and with the building work and delivery traffic along City Road it is one that comes up more than you would expect.
You are stood looking at a screw head in the tread and wondering whether to pull it out. We come to it, on Great Eastern Street or on a driveway, take the wheel off and find out whether the damage is inside the repairable area. Underground parking in the Featherstone Street area or the Bunhill Fields area is worth flagging. A St Luke's cul-de-sac or a Moorfields main road, tell us which.

Local knowledge across Old Street
There is building work of one sort or another going on around the roundabout most of the year, and the screws and nails that come with it end up in the same gutters everybody parks in. Cars here often collect three or four punctures over the life of a set of tyres, all of them ordinary, most of them repairable on the day they happen. That is precisely why it is worth keeping an honest count. A tyre that has already been mended twice deserves a proper look before anybody promises you a third.
Puncture Repair call-outs we handle in Old Street
Two patches already inside
The tyre came off carrying a pair of older repairs, both sound and both in the middle of the tread. The new nail had gone in a comfortable distance from either of them, so it was patched as normal and the tyre stayed on the car.
New hole beside an old one
A screw had landed close enough to an existing repair that the two patches would have touched. Overlapping repairs are not permitted, and for good reason, because neither one bonds properly along the join. That tyre was replaced.
Counted before anything was promised
A driver had been told on the phone elsewhere that the puncture was repairable. Nobody had asked what the tyre was already carrying, and it turned out to be carrying three. We looked first and gave the answer second.

Puncture Repair in Old Street, FAQs
There is no single number that fits every tyre, because it depends on the size, on where the repairs sit and on how much undamaged casing is left between them. What the standard is clear about is that repairs cannot overlap or sit on top of one another, and that a casing carrying several is nearer the end of what it can take.
No. Each patch needs sound rubber all the way round it to bond to, and two that touch leave a seam where neither has a proper edge. If new damage lands too close to an existing repair, the honest answer is a new tyre, and you are told that before anything is jacked up.
They are obvious once the tyre is off the rim. A proper repair is a patch bonded to the inner liner, so it stands out against an otherwise smooth surface, and its position around the tyre can be measured. None of that is visible from outside, which is why the tyre has to come off.
No. Breaking the tyre off the rim, repairing it and balancing the wheel all happen at the kerb, so a permit bay you spent twenty minutes finding stays yours. As long as we can get alongside the car and reach the wheel, the job finishes where it started.
