Can every flat tyre in SW16 be repaired on the street?

No. A repair in SW16 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 Streatham are replacements.

Does SW16 mean you will arrive in a fixed number of minutes?

No. Traffic in south-west London, and how far the technician has to travel, set the time for SW16. We tell you that time before you accept it.

What should I say when I call from SW16?

Say the street in Streatham, the code SW16, what the tyre looks like, and whether you have the locking wheel nut key. A photo helps if you can take one safely.

Red routes, bays, and Streatham

Stopping restrictions in Streatham are part of the job. A red route, a bus lane, or a private car park with clamping can make a legal repair impossible where you first stopped. SW16 still has side streets and driveways. Tell us which entrance to use if the vehicle is at work.

The inside of the tyre

The finished repair for a puncture in Streatham is a patch from the inside, after the tyre is off the rim, in the manner of BS AU 159. A rope plug pushed in from the outside is not that repair. We will not describe it as one. If SW16 is a roadside spot, we still need enough room to take the wheel off.

Spare wheels and Streatham

A space-saver spare is a temporary, speed-limited wheel, not a repaired tyre. If you have already fitted one in Streatham, we can still come and fit a proper tyre. If you have no spare and the tyre is off the bead, do not try to drive across SW16. Wait where the car is safe.
