Tyre trouble in Lodge Farm?

in Lodge Farm.
On a housing estate like Lodge Farm, tyre trouble usually shows up first thing: a car that was fine last night sits on a flat in the morning. A slow puncture, a valve that has started to seep, or tread worn past the legal limit are the usual finds. Coltham Road and Straight Road, both part of the A462, are the ways on and off the estate. Pass on the size with your house number and street, and the car gets seen on the spot.

What we do in Lodge Farm
Tyre work in Lodge Farm.
Most Lodge Farm jobs happen at home. Worn tyres are replaced with new ones in the car's size and balanced on the van's machine. A screw that has gone in through the centre of the tread can be put right from the inside to BS AU 159, provided the tyre passes an inspection once demounted, while a sidewall hole means a new tyre. A burst is replaced. If the key for the locking nuts cannot be found, the nuts still come off. Nights and weekends are covered.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Lodge Farm
Drives, bays and car parks.
The drive at home is the obvious answer, and on this estate most cars can stay exactly where they are. A side street with a clear kerb works too. If the car can manage a gentle trip round the corner, the public Coltham Road Long Stay Car Park is close, and the Morrisons car park is another. Unit yards on the industrial parks suit vans. The A462 carriageways and the bus stops along them are not usable.
Calls come from the estate streets themselves and from neighbouring Lane Head, Short Heath, Ashmore Lake and Pool Hayes, all within a mile. The postcode here is mostly WV12, with WS2 on the Bentley side. Plenty of houses have their own drive or a hardstanding, easily the kindest ground for a jack. Where cars park on the street in the evening, a clear stretch of kerb with room around the flat wheel is what counts. The A462 roads are not the place to stop with a flat, since there is no space to work beside the traffic. Holland Industrial Park and Reflex Industrial Park are close for anyone whose van is at the unit. Walsall levies nothing on older cars.

24 hours in Lodge Farm.

Lodge Farm FAQs
Questions from Lodge Farm.
The car is sitting on a flat on my Lodge Farm drive. Should I move it?
Leave it where it is. A private drive gives the fitter everything needed: the jack, the tyre and balancing kit arrive in the van. Just clear some space beside the flat wheel and have the locking nut key handy, if the car has one.
Is Lodge Farm in WV12 or WS2?
Most of Lodge Farm is WV12, but the streets towards Bentley are in WS2. Either is covered. Include the road name along with the complete postcode, because nearby areas such as Lane Head and Short Heath share the same districts.
Can the tyre be fitted at Coltham Road Long Stay Car Park?
If the car can be driven there slowly and safely, it is a reasonable spot. Park in a bay with space around the damaged wheel, well back from the way in, and say which row you chose. The tyre is then changed without moving the car again.
How can I tell whether the tread on my tyres is still legal?
A car tyre in the UK needs a minimum of 1.6mm along a band covering three quarters of the tread, measured centrally, all round the tyre. Most tyres have small raised wear bars in the grooves at about that depth, so once the tread is level with them, a new tyre is due.
