Merridale fills the ground just west of the Wolverhampton ring road, between the A454 Compton Road and the A41 Tettenhall Road. Rescue Tyres drives the new tyre and the whole fitting setup out to wherever the car is parked, drive or kerbside.

Tyre trouble in Merridale?

in Merridale.
Most Merridale tyre calls begin close to home. A car comes back out along Compton Road from the city with a screw in the tread, or a wheel clips the kerb turning off Chapel Ash, and the damage only shows next morning as a soft tyre outside the house. Houses here stand close together, so what helps most is the road, the door number, and whether the car sits off the street or beside it. Quote the tyre size as well, moulded on its wall, and the fitter sets out already carrying a match.

What we do in Merridale
Tyre work in Merridale.
Merridale work is mostly household cars, with a steady share of vans parked outside homes. A replacement follows the size, load and speed codes the car wears now. For a nail lodged in the tread, the tyre comes away from the wheel and is measured against BS AU 159; a pass means an internal plug and patch. A tyre that has blown apart is swapped, after the rim has been inspected for cracks and bends. Where the locking key never turns up, dedicated sockets extract the nut. The phone line stays open overnight and at weekends.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Merridale
Drives, bays and car parks.
A private drive comes first, with the car on level ground and in gear or park. Next best is a side road off Compton Road, the car lined up close along the kerb and clear of bends and dropped kerbs. Clifton Street Car Park suits a driveable car, and an end bay well back from the entrance lane leaves the most elbow room. The A41 and A454 carriageways themselves are unsuitable, as is any bay that leaves the fitter kneeling in passing traffic.
Callers are spread through the residential roads between Merridale's two main routes, and down towards Broad Lane, where the B4161 bends south for Finchfield. The nearer a street is to Chapel Ash, the tighter parking becomes, so if the car stands in a resident permit bay, mention it and leave the permit on display. Chapel Ash Island, where the A4150 ring road meets the A41, is not a place to stop with a flat: pull into a side road first. Westward, towards Compton, more houses have drives, and a drive is where most jobs in this part of WV3 are finished. Clifton Street Car Park is an option for anyone whose tyre still holds enough air to reach it, and it is a simpler meeting point than anything inside the ring road.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Merridale.
Late calls from Merridale come from people who drove home through Chapel Ash after an evening out and found the tyre flat by morning, and from early starters facing a soft tyre on the drive before work. Whatever the time, somebody picks up, checks the tyre size with you, and states the full cost before anyone drives out.

Merridale FAQs
Questions from Merridale.
Do you cover Merridale, or only central Wolverhampton?
Merridale is covered along with the rest of WV3 and the WV6 streets towards Compton and Tettenhall. Every job starts at the one base, in Brent Cross, a long drive south of here, so on the call to 07473 720871 you are given an honest arrival estimate rather than a promise.
My car is in a resident permit bay near Chapel Ash. Can the tyre be changed there?
A permit bay is usually fine for the job, since the car is legally parked and off the running lane. Keep the permit displayed, say whether the car faces into or out of town, and read out the full sidewall size so the correct tyre comes.
The tyre went soft on Compton Road. Should I keep driving home?
Only as far as the first quiet side street. A tyre driven flat on the A454 can break up and damage the rim, so a mendable hole becomes a bill for a whole new tyre. Stop, hazards on, and phone with where you are and the size.
Can you meet me at Clifton Street Car Park instead of at home?
A public car park like Clifton Street works well when the car can still be driven there. Leave the car in a bay with clear space beside the damaged wheel, buy a ticket as anyone would, and send the fitter the row or nearest landmark inside the car park.
