Tyre trouble in Maypole?

At the Maypole, tyre trouble usually comes off the A435. A blowout or a tyre losing air at speed on the Hollywood By-Pass or Alcester Road South leaves a driver looking for somewhere to stop, and the answer is a residential turning or a car park, never the junction. Shoppers find slow punctures when they return to the car. Tell the fitter where the car ended up, its tyre size and whether any air is left, and the right tyre is brought out.

What we do in Maypole
Tyre work in Maypole.
At the Maypole the usual job is a burst or suddenly deflating tyre replaced in a supermarket car park or a residential turning, with the rim looked over for damage first. A modest puncture across the tread face gets an inside repair to BS AU 159. New tyres are sourced to your size and balanced on site. An extractor frees any locking nut whose key is lost, and callouts run at night and weekends.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Maypole
Drives, bays and car parks.
A supermarket car park near the Maypole works for a car left in a space away from the entrance lanes, as long as the store allows it. A residential side street off the A435 is the other main option, where the car is legal and there is working room by the damaged tyre. Industrial estate yards need permission from the business. The Maypole junction, the by-pass and Alcester Road South are all unsuitable for jacking a car.
The Maypole is a crossroads rather than a neighbourhood. Callers are drivers on the A435 heading in or out of the city, shoppers at the supermarkets clustered near the junction, and residents of Highters Heath and Druids Heath on either side. The junction and the by-pass carry heavy traffic and buses, so the fitter will not work on either; a car should be steered into a residential road. Supermarket car parks close to the island are usable for a car parked in an ordinary space. Vans from the Houndsfield Industrial Estate also call from here. Because the Maypole name exists elsewhere in the UK, give the B14 or B38 postcode so there is no confusion. The city's Clean Air Zone lies miles north, inside the Middleway.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Maypole.
Night calls from the Maypole are mostly drivers on the A435 who felt a tyre go and pulled into a side street or an empty car park. The call is answered, the fitter checks the car is somewhere safe, and the price is pinned down before a van is dispatched from north London.

Maypole FAQs
Questions from Maypole.
Which Maypole do you cover?
The Maypole in south Birmingham, where the A435 Alcester Road South turns into the Hollywood By-Pass, in B14 and B38. Other Maypoles exist around the country, so quoting the postcode avoids any mix-up.
My tyre burst on the Hollywood By-Pass. Where should I stop?
Somewhere safely off the carriageway, such as a residential side road or a car park, if the car can be moved slowly. If it cannot, get everyone clear of the traffic and call for help. Once the car is safe, ring us with the location.
Where can the fitter work near the Maypole junction?
On a residential road off the A435 where the car is legally parked, or in a supermarket car park near the junction where the car sits in an ordinary space. The junction itself and the by-pass are ruled out, because of the traffic and the buses.
Do I pay a Clean Air Zone charge at the Maypole?
No. The Birmingham zone covers only streets inside the A4540 Middleway, far north of the Maypole junction. Besides, a stationary car having a wheel changed owes no zone fee anywhere, whatever its age or engine.
