Came back to Bulls Head Yard or out to your Kinwarton drive and found a flat? Leave the car there and ring. The fitter inspects it and settles between a patch and a new tyre on the spot.
Flat tyres in Alcester can be found rather than felt. A car parked in Bulls Head Yard while you shop on the High Street sinks slowly from an A46 screw; a car left on a drive in Arrow overnight is on its rim by breakfast; visitors return from Ragley Hall or Coughton Court to a corner sitting low. Pumping it up and driving to a garage in Redditch or Stratford risks destroying a tyre that could be repaired.
Keep the car where it is and tell us the location, the size and anything you can see stuck in the tread. Diagnosis happens beside the wheel: a central nail or screw is repaired to BS AU 159, a leaking valve is renewed, and a sidewall wound or a liner torn apart on the rim means a new tyre. You are told the option and price before the work goes ahead.
On run-flat tyres? They behave differently once deflated, so check the handbook's limits and read our page on run-flat tyres; we fit replacement run-flat tyres at the car in Alcester as well.
If the job turns out to be different, see broken tyre replacement, burst tyre replacement in Alcester or wheel balancing.
Wherever the flat was found: Bulls Head Yard, a drive in Kinwarton or Oversley Green, or a car park at Ragley Hall or Coughton Court if staff allow a van. On a narrow lane, give a what3words reference.

Flat tyre: the first steps →Flat tyre help on the Alcester page
A flat on the B439 between Bidford and Evesham, signed as Salford Road or Tower Hill, needs the car off the running lane as soon as possible. Find a lane mouth or a village street in Salford Priors, switch the hazards on and wait well back from the road, beyond any barrier. Then call with the location and the tyre size.
A tyre gone flat in Kinwarton overnight deserves a careful look before anyone rings. Check the other three for softness. On the flat one, search for a nail, a flint, a leaking valve, or a scrape from the kerb. Do not drive it round to an Alcester garage, even slowly; the wall collapses and the rim can crack. A space-saver spare covers a short journey within its stated limit, though many cars have none. Without one, the Kinwarton car stays parked while you phone.
