Puncture repair - can a tyre be too worn?

Hi, Got a puncture, tyre is legal, worn but legal. Took the tyre to kwik fit for repair as it is an alloy without a centre so few places locally can balance it. Guy takes it in at 10am pick it up at 4. 4 o'clock comes with turns up, tyre isn't fixed as it is too worn. No attempt to sell a tyre. Just the punctured one back…

That's where I ended up today, just over 3 mm on the tyre and they repaired it.

I've always found them good, but I use them alot. I never actually buy tyres from them though, but I use them for fitting ones bought on line, or used off ebay, and never have a problem with them fitting them for a tenner.
I usually go down with a car full though.
