The job, step by step
A repair in Kingstanding that cannot wait.
Kingstanding starts early. Taxi drivers off the Circle, tradespeople heading for the A34 and M6 J7, parents doing the school run along Hawthorn Road: a soft tyre at breakfast puts all of it at risk. A screw from the shop parades sitting in the tread is a risk, the kind of puncture that can be repaired properly when the hole is small and away from the shoulder. Say when the car is needed for work or school so the Kingstanding visit can be planned around it.
Send the sidewall code, the street and a photo, then keep the phone nearby. At your drive the fitter pulls the wheel, opens the tyre up, patches the hole from inside and refits the tyre balanced and torqued. Should the screw prove to be in the shoulder, or a pothole has bulged the sidewall, you are told straight and offered a replacement at a stated price rather than a repair that would not hold. The arrival estimate and the cost are both settled on the call.
