Everything a tyre bay on Birmingham Road would use comes to Sutton Coldfield with the fitter: the changer, balancer, torque wrench and the tyre. Your car stays on the drive.
A car with a shredded tyre on a Streetly drive would wreck its rim getting to a workshop, and one flat in the Four Oaks station car park cannot leave until the evening. So the workshop travels. The van holds a mounting machine with a bead breaker, a spin balancer, a compressor, a torque wrench and the everyday sizes on the shelf. Fitting on a Sutton Coldfield kerb is not a compromise on any of it.
The car is jacked where it stands, drive or station car park; off comes the wheel, away comes the old tyre, on goes the new one, balanced, and the wheel is torqued to the maker's setting with a new valve. Send the sidewall code and the address, and mention any slope, because a level spot on a Walmley drive or in the Good Hope car park makes the jack safer. The total is fixed by phone before the van leaves.
Level driveways from Mere Green to Wylde Green, terraced streets in Boldmere, the station car parks at Wylde Green and Four Oaks, and Minworth yards with permission. Not the M6 Toll, the A38 carriageway or the busy stretch of the A5127 through the centre.

Space decides where the van can work. Around the affected corner there should be kneeling room, with firm flat tarmac for the jack to sit on, and a spot near enough for the van that does not block a neighbour's drive in Four Oaks or squeeze a narrow Maney street. Private or permit bays need the owner's agreement. On a steep Streetly drive, the fitter picks the flattest part of the drive where the jack sits true, and the whole fit happens around the car as it stands.
The workshop arrives on your Sutton Coldfield drive; the car goes nowhere.
