Mobile tyre fitting

Brandwood End fills the ground between Alcester Road South and the A4040 as it bends from Vicarage Road into Howard Road, with the cemetery at its heart. Rescue Tyres turns up at your drive or kerb with the tyre and fits it there.
A fitter at your car
in Brandwood End.
Most flats in Brandwood End are found in the morning, outside the house, after a screw collected on Alcester Road South has let the tyre down overnight. The rest come from catching a kerb on a tight corner between the A435 and Howard Road. Leaving the car parked is kinder to the tyre than driving it on the rim to a tyre shop, which usually turns a repairable hole into a new tyre. Read out the size moulded on the tyre, plus your street, and a match is loaded before the van sets out.

Tyre work in Brandwood End.
In Brandwood End the fitter carries the tyre matched to your sidewall size, then mounts and balances it right there beside the house. A screw lodged in the centre band is drawn out, the casing is checked inside, and the hole gets a plug and patch built to BS AU 159 if it falls inside the standard. A burst tyre is swapped after the rim gets a careful look for cracks or dents. A missing locking nut key is solved with removal tools rather than force.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
A drive is the easiest surface, and plenty of Brandwood End houses have one. Kerbside on a residential street works too, so long as the car is legal and there is clearance by the damaged wheel. A unit on the Lemar Industrial Estate suits a van once the tenant has said yes to a visiting fitter. The cemetery gates and the entrance road are not suitable, and nor is a bus stop on the Outer Circle, however quiet it looks late in the evening.
Brandwood End callers live on both flanks of the cemetery, from the streets running towards Druids Heath and Walkers Heath, and from the Kings Heath edge off Vicarage Road. The postcode flips between B14 and B30 across this patch, so give the whole thing: a road name on its own can point the fitter the wrong way. The Outer Circle changes its name several times here, Vicarage Road, Howard Road, Howard Road East and Wheelers Lane, and none of it is somewhere to jack a car with buses passing close by. Alcester Road South is no better. A car that has limped into a side turning and parked legally is exactly where it needs to be. The Clean Air Zone is drawn inside the Middleway, miles north, so nothing about a tyre job here is charged.
