Can every flat tyre in SE26 be repaired on the street?

No. A repair in SE26 is only suitable when the damage is in the central tread and the tyre can come off the wheel for an internal patch. Sidewall cuts in Lower Sydenham are replacements.

Does SE26 mean you will arrive in a fixed number of minutes?

No. Traffic in south-east London, and how far the technician has to travel, set the time for SE26. We tell you that time before you accept it.

What should I say when I call from SE26?

Say the street in Lower Sydenham, the code SE26, what the tyre looks like, and whether you have the locking wheel nut key. A photo helps if you can take one safely.

Where a jack can stand in Lower Sydenham

In Lower Sydenham the useful question is the surface under the vehicle, not the district slogan. A flat driveway, a marked bay, or a quiet side street lets the technician raise the car. A camber, a soft verge, or a live lane does not. If you are in SE26 and the first spot is unsafe, say so. Moving one street is better than abandoning the job.

Run-flat tyres in Lower Sydenham

A run-flat that has been driven while flat is often beyond a repair, even when the hole looks small. If the car in Lower Sydenham showed a pressure warning and you kept going, say how far. We would rather price a replacement for SE26 than promise a patch the tyre cannot take.

Car parks and barriers in Lower Sydenham

Multi-storey car parks in Lower Sydenham often fail on height, on the slope of the ramp, or on a ban on working in the bay. A street outside is frequently the better workshop. Mention the barrier height when you book SE26. We would rather change the pin than arrive and turn around.
