A fitter at your car
in Longdon.
Because Longdon is practically the edge of the town centre, a lot of tyres go flat while the car is parked for shopping or work. A screw picked up on Warwick Road, Hampton Lane or the A41 lets the air out slowly, and the driver comes back to a soft wheel in a car park or on the drive. That car can usually stay where it is. Phone through the tyre size and the car's location, B91 or B92, and the tyre travels to it.

Tyre work in Longdon.
Longdon jobs are mostly the ordinary ones, done without the car moving. A replacement tyre matching the size and speed rating shown, balanced and mounted wherever the car stands. A puncture assessed from inside the tyre and put right to BS AU 159 where its position and size allow. Burst tyres replaced once the Longdon fitter has inspected the rim. Locking nuts extracted where their key has disappeared. Night calls are answered too.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
A private drive off Warwick Road or Hampton Lane is the best working surface. In the town centre, a surface-level public bay serves, with the car legally parked and space around the soft wheel. Low multi-storey decks, barrier lanes, loading bays and taxi ranks are not, and nor are disabled bays. Nor is the A41, or any stretch of Warwick Road where the car would sit in the flow of traffic.
Longdon calls split between the town centre, the homes, and the industrial estates. On the centre side, public car parks such as the Civic Centre, Lode Lane and John Lewis car parks are workable for a car in an ordinary bay, with the fitter keeping clear of ramps and barriers. Multi-storey decks with low headroom are harder for a van, so a car that can be driven safely down to a surface level space makes life simpler. On the residential side, houses off Warwick Road and Hampton Lane mostly have drives. The Solihull Bypass and Seven Star Road carry the A41 and are no place to stop. Van drivers from the nearby industrial estates can be seen in a yard, with permission.
