Can every flat tyre in N14 be repaired on the street?

No. A repair in N14 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 Southgate are replacements.

Does N14 mean you will arrive in a fixed number of minutes?

No. Traffic in north London, and how far the technician has to travel, set the time for N14. We tell you that time before you accept it.

What should I say when I call from N14?

Say the street in Southgate, the code N14, what the tyre looks like, and whether you have the locking wheel nut key. A photo helps if you can take one safely.
