When a puncture turns up on the morning you cannot miss a shift at Longbridge or the school run through Turves Green, the repair can be done at the car the same day if the diary allows.
Some Northfield punctures cannot wait for a convenient slot. A nurse finds the tyre down on the drive in Allens Cross before an early start; a parent has children to drop off and a tyre hissing after the Turves Green speed cushions; a tradesman parked off Frankley Beeches Road has a van full of tools and a job across town. A garage on Bristol Road South means a wait, a taxi and a wasted morning. A mobile repair means the car stays put and the day carries on.
Ring rather than message when it is urgent. Give the street in B31, the sidewall size and roughly where the object is in the tread, and you get a realistic arrival time and the cost for the repair and callout in the same call. The fitter removes the wheel, patches the puncture from inside under BS AU 159 and refits it torqued to spec. Where the damage proves unrepairable, a replacement can be offered there and then if your size is among the stock aboard.
Not quite this? Read about new tyres fitted or locking wheel nut removal in Northfield instead.
Wherever the car is parked on firm ground: a drive in West Heath, the kerb in Bell Hill, a bay at Northfield Leisure Centre or outside a unit off the A38. Bus lanes on Bristol Road South are off limits, so use a side street.

How a mobile puncture repair is done →Emergency tyre repair on the Northfield page
An emergency can still turn out to be repairable. A nail collected on Groveley Lane (B4096), on Church Road (B4121) or near Arden Business Park often leaves the tyre soft but intact, and the fitter inspects it on the spot. Mention whether you drove on it fully flat, because running a deflated tyre chews up the inner wall and rules a repair out.
To help plan a Northfield visit, send three things together: a tread photo that shows the nail or screw, the sidewall code, and the exact spot the car is in, such as a drive in West Heath or a Northfield Leisure Centre bay. If the car will move between home and work, say where it stands longest. The fitter's day is then arranged around your shift or the Turves Green school run where possible, and a straight arrival estimate comes on the phone.
