The job, step by step
A repair in Sparkhill that cannot wait.
Plenty of people in Sparkhill cannot afford a day without the car: cab drivers who work the A34, shopkeepers with stock to move, parents in Springfield with a school across Showell Green Lane. When a puncture lands on a morning like that, waiting for a garage is not on. The tyre is the same ordinary puncture from the Stratford Road; the difference is that it needs repairing at the kerb this morning, with the visit planned around it if the diary allows.
Say it is urgent when you ring, give the deadline, the street in B11 and the tyre size, and the arrival window you hear is realistic, not hopeful. The fitter gets the wheel off, confirms the hole is inside the repairable band and under 6 mm wide, and repairs it from within to BS AU 159. Balanced, the wheel goes back on. A tyre found unrepairable is replaced on the spot from the van's stock where the size allows.
You can book new tyres fitted in Sparkhill or flat tyre help on the same call.
