Back from a Russells Hall shift to a tyre on the rim, or out of the house in Netherton to a car sitting low: flat tyre help in Dudley means the car stays put and the call is made there.
Flats in Dudley can be found at the end of something: a shift at Russells Hall Hospital, a film at Castle Gate, a night in Priory or Dudley Wood. A screw from Peartree Lane that leaked for days, a valve that finally gave up, a kerb pinch from the A459 roundabouts that let go overnight. The instinct is to nurse the car down Castle Hill to a garage, and that instinct costs a rim and turns a patchable tyre into a replacement.
Leave the car be and ring: which street or car park, the postcode, the sidewall size. The fitter puts air in to find the leak, then dismounts the tyre. A small tread hole in a casing that has never run on its rim gets patched from inside; a failed valve, a shredded liner or a hole in the shoulder means a new tyre in the correct size from the van. You hear the reasoning at the car, and the figure was agreed before anyone set off.
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 Dudley as well.

Drives across Sedgley, Gornal, Priory, Woodside and Netherton, a Russells Hall bay if the parking office has been warned, a Castle Gate bay for something short, or a street near the bus station. Not the hospital drop-off lanes and not the A4123.

Flat tyre: the first steps →Flat tyre help on the Dudley page
Flat on Himley Road (B4176) or Abbey Road (B4175)? Hazards first, then crawl off the bend into a side road near Straits Green or The Straits. Look the tyre over from the kerb, not the carriageway. When you ring, say whether it is just low or sitting on the rim, and which street you ended up in.
Around the Netherton units the object in a flat tyre is as likely to be a curl of swarf as a screw, so check the tread closely, and the valve, which can crack and let the tyre down overnight. Look for a fresh gouge on the sidewall from the A459 roundabouts, then press each of the other three. Coaxing it down Castle Hill to a garage finishes the liner. A space-saver is for short, slow hops only, so leave the car level in Priory.
