Tyre trouble in Hockley Heath?

in Hockley Heath.
Tyres in Hockley Heath mostly come to grief on the A3400 and the country lanes. A screw from the main road, a flint on Spring Lane or Grange Road, or a sidewall caught against a verge edge while passing on a lane. With nowhere public to park in the village, a flat usually gets sorted on the owner's drive, or in a safe gateway if it happened out on the lanes. Send the postcode, B94 or B93, and the size from the sidewall.

What we do in Hockley Heath
Tyre work in Hockley Heath.
Rural tyre work here is much the same as anywhere, just further from a tyre shop. A new tyre in the right size gets ordered, mounted and balanced beside the house. A screw or flint hole in the tread is repaired from inside to BS AU 159 if it falls within the allowed zone; a slit sidewall from a lane edge cannot be. Blowouts are replaced, and keyless locking nuts are drawn off without harm. The phone is answered at night too.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Hockley Heath
Drives, bays and car parks.
A driveway is the first choice in Hockley Heath, and almost every call ends on one. Out on the lanes, a gateway or a proper pull-in where the car sits entirely off the road can work. Commuters parked in an ordinary bay at Dorridge station can be met there. Not usable: the A3400 carriageway, the lane bends, verges soft enough to sink a jack, and any farm entrance that is in use.
Calls come from houses along the A3400 through the village, from homes on Aylesbury Road and Spring Lane, and from the hamlets around it: Darley Green, Norton Green and Illshaw Heath, with Lapworth and Dorridge a little further off. Most Hockley Heath homes have their own drive, the natural spot for the job. On the lanes, a field gateway or a wide pull-in that leaves the carriageway clear is workable; a bend or a narrow stretch is not. The A3400 carries through traffic, so a flat found there means rolling gently into a side road or onto a drive before any work begins. Dorridge station, a short drive away, is the nearest large car park for a commuter's car. No clean air scheme touches the village.

Hockley Heath FAQs
Questions from Hockley Heath.
Does Rescue Tyres cover Hockley Heath and the lanes towards Lapworth?
The village and the hamlets around it are covered, Darley Green and Norton Green included, with Lapworth just beyond. Hockley Heath lies a long drive from Brent Cross, where the van is based, so an honest arrival estimate comes out of the call to 07473 720871, once the postcode is known.
I cut a tyre on a lane near Hockley Heath. Where should I stop?
Carry on slowly to the next field gateway or wide pull-in where the car can sit off the lane, then ring. A bend or a narrow stretch is no place to change a wheel. A cut sidewall cannot be repaired, so expect a replacement.
Is there a car park in Hockley Heath where you can fit a tyre?
Hockley Heath offers no public parking area, so most jobs happen on the owner's drive. If the car is at Dorridge station, a normal bay in that car park works well. Otherwise, a quiet side road with the car legally parked is the fallback.
Is a nail in the tread fixable on a Hockley Heath drive?
Often it can. Provided the nail went into the central part of the tread and left a small hole, the tyre is dismounted, inspected from within and given an internal patch. Shoulder and sidewall damage, or a tyre run flat for a distance, means a new one.
