A tyre gone soft over a Saturday at Merry Hill or a day at the Waterfront is the Brierley Hill flat. Leave it in the bay, send the size, and patch or new tyre is settled at the car.
Flats in Brierley Hill are discovered at the end of something: shop, shift or night. A slow leak from a Pensnett screw finishes the job while the car sits in a Merry Hill car park, where allowed, a Waterfront bay or on a Silver End terrace and the driver comes back to a tyre on the rim. The urge to crawl to the Level Street exit or up the High Street ruins the sidewall and can gouge the alloy; a repairable nail becomes a replacement in a hundred metres.
Message the car park, entrance or street, the sidewall size and say if the ground slopes. The fitter jacks the car, takes the wheel off and hunts for the cause: a nail sitting mid-tread in a Brierley Hill tyre that kept some air is patched from inside to BS AU 159, while a tyre run flat or cut at the shoulder is replaced from van stock. Repair and replacement are each quoted on the call, so the decision at the car holds no surprises.
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 Brierley Hill as well.
Other jobs we do at the car include broken tyre replacement in Brierley Hill and wheel balancing.
Merry Hill car parks once customer services are told, Waterfront bays with security aware, Withymoor drives, Quarry Bank and Pensnett streets with a kerb gap, Harts Hill units. Not the Merry Hill or High Street bus stations, and not the A4036 lanes.

Flat tyre: the first steps →Flat tyre help on the Brierley Hill page
Losing air on Pensnett Road or Commonside, pull into a side street off the B4179 as soon as it is safe and switch the hazards on. Do not try to make it home on a flat, since driving on one can ruin both tyre and wheel. Tell us whether you are by Gorstybank Bridge or further along, and which wheel has gone.
Before ringing from a Merry Hill car park, walk round and check the other three tyres, since a Pensnett screw rarely picks on only one wheel. On the flat tyre look for something embedded in the tread, a valve that is split or leaning, and a graze along the sidewall from a kerb. Pumping it up to drive home to Quarry Bank is the wrong move. A space-saver will carry the car short distances at low speed, but leaving it in the bay is kinder to the tyre.
