Hainault runs along Fencepiece Road at the top of the A123, with the station and its car park on one side and the Hainault Works estate on the other. The Rescue Tyres van pulls in alongside and the wheel is done there.

Working vehicles set the tone in Hainault. Vans go in and out of the estate all day, they run heavy, and a tyre loaded to its limit finds every sharp thing on the road. Cars pick up the rest along Fencepiece Road and Manor Road. Whichever it is, the vehicle need not go anywhere: the size is taken off the sidewall over the phone, the right tyre travels out, and the wheel is changed or the puncture mended where it stands.

What we do in Hainault
Tyre work in Hainault.
New tyres are ordered against the precise size, load index and speed rating carried by the vehicle, which matters more on a laden van than on a car. Budget, mid-range and premium casings can all be had, along with van and 4x4 fitments. A tread puncture means the tyre off the rim, a look at the inside, then an internal patch and plug where BS AU 159 allows it. A wrecked casing is replaced. A lost locking key is not an obstacle; the nut comes away all the same.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Hainault
Drives, bays and car parks.
A yard on the estate for anything big, a driveway for anything domestic, and the station car park for a car that has to be met on neutral ground. All three are firm and level, which is what a jack needs under it. A residential road serves too, so long as the vehicle is parked square and nothing is passing close by. Chigwell Golf Club is a members' car park rather than a public one, so it does not come into it.
The district covers IG6 and the IG7 side towards Chigwell, and the calls divide between the estate and the housing. Around Hainault Works and the yards off Manor Road it is vans, tippers and trade vehicles, and a unit yard gives the best ground anybody could ask for, provided somebody on site is expecting the visit. The residential roads either side of Fencepiece Road are drives and kerbside parking. Hainault station has parking of its own, level and properly surfaced, which makes a handy meeting place for a vehicle that is still mobile, assuming the operator is content with work going on there. Fencepiece Road and the Fullwell Cross roundabout are not usable at all, whatever the tyre has done.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Hainault.
Hainault starts early and the phone reflects it. Drivers loading before dawn on the estate find a soft tyre, and residents back off a late shift find one on the drive. Calls are taken through the night, every night, and you hear the full figure before anybody sets off.

Hainault FAQs
Questions from Hainault.
Can a tyre be fitted at Hainault station car park?
It is level ground with room to work, so it serves as a meeting point for anything that can still be driven there. The car park has an operator, so a word with them is sensible. Pull up clear of the barriers and name the end you are parked at.
Do you do van tyres on the Hainault Works estate?
Van work is most of what comes out of that estate. Say which unit, what the vehicle is, and read the size code straight off the sidewall; the tyre then travels out on the van. A yard is easy ground, though the site should know somebody is coming in.
My address is IG7 rather than IG6. Is that still covered?
Both sides of the boundary are on the round, Hainault, Grange Hill and the Chigwell edge included. The postcode matters for navigation, not for whether a fitter comes out. Read it in full along with the tyre size when you ring.
What happens to the old tyre?
It leaves with the fitter. Nothing is left on your drive or in a yard, and the wheel goes back on balanced with the new tyre seated on it. If the old one turns out to be repairable it goes back instead, mended from the inside.
