A fitter at your car
in Cotteridge.
Two busy main roads meet in Cotteridge, and most of its tyre trouble begins on one of them. A screw collected on Pershore Road South or Watford Road can take a while to empty a tyre, so plenty of calls begin with a flat noticed outside the house the following morning. Others come from drivers who clipped a kerb turning off the A4040. A WhatsApp photo of the sidewall plus the postcode lets the fitter decide between a patch and a replacement before leaving.

Tyre work in Cotteridge.
The kit on the van covers new tyres, sized from the sidewall and balanced on the spot. Punctures are repaired from inside the tyre, and only where BS AU 159 says the damage can be. Following a blowout, the wheel is inspected before any replacement is mounted. Even with its key lost or broken, a locking nut can be removed. Any of that can be booked for the small hours as well as the daytime.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
Driveways and the quieter residential streets set back from the main roads give the fitter the room needed. Kings Norton station car park is the best choice for a car left there for the day, in a marked bay. The Cadbury World car park is private and cannot be used, and nor can the car park of a pub or a business without the owner agreeing. Stopping in the Pershore Road South bays or at a bus stop is not possible.
Cotteridge's houses spread out either side of the two A-roads, with Middleton Hall Road leaving as the B4121 towards Kings Norton and Lifford close at hand. The postcode is mostly B30, with B38 on the Kings Norton side. The shopping stretch of Pershore Road South has short bays and bus stops, so it is not a workable place for a wheel change, and neither is the Watford Road junction. Behind the main roads the residential streets are a better bet, especially where a driveway is free. Kings Norton station car park is close and suits a commuter. Vans tend to be found on the Kings Norton Trading Estate or the Lemar Industrial Estate, where a yard makes an easy surface once the site has said yes.
