Can every flat tyre in SW1P be repaired on the street?

No. A repair in SW1P 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 Thorney are replacements.

Does SW1P 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 SW1P. We tell you that time before you accept it.

What should I say when I call from SW1P?

Say the street in Thorney, the code SW1P, 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 Thorney

In Thorney 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 SW1P and the first spot is unsafe, say so. Moving one street is better than abandoning the job.

The locking wheel nut in Thorney

A large share of delays on a SW1P call-out are missing locking wheel nut keys, not missing tyres. Before you call from Thorney, look in the glovebox, the boot wallet, and the service book. If the key is lost, say that at the start. The visit can still happen, but the time and the method change, and you should hear that before anyone sets off.

What SW1P does to the clock

Arrival in Thorney is the drive from a free technician plus the traffic on that route. We do not publish a minute count for SW1P. You get a window on the phone, and you can decline it. Night, school-run, and match-day traffic are different journeys even when the postcode is the same.

Booking Thorney

School-run traffic changes the Thorney arrival even when the postcode stays the same. A space-saver already fitted in Thorney does not end the need for a proper tyre. Stay with the car in Thorney so the technician can identify it. Height barriers on car parks in Thorney stop some vans.
