A fitter at your car
in Norton.
Norton is a place name found all over England; this one is in Dudley borough, on the edge of Stourbridge, and its tyre calls follow the A451. Drivers heading in along Norton Road and Worcester Street collect screws and glass, and the kerbs on South Road and Highpark Avenue, the B4186, catch sidewalls when cars pull in. Most people find the damage on the drive, which suits a mobile fitter well. Pass on the size and the DY8 postcode, and the right tyre travels up with the fitter.

Tyre work in Norton.
Norton jobs are much like any residential round: a tyre replaced on the drive in the size read from the sidewall, a nail pulled from the tread and the tyre patched from inside under BS AU 159, provided the damage is minor and well away from the edges, and a blown tyre renewed after the wheel has been inspected. Locking nuts with no key come off with the proper tool. The phone is picked up after dark as readily as at noon, weekends included.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
Drives are the answer for most of Norton, and a car on the drive stays where it is. A side road with space alongside the wheel works for a car parked on the street. Stanley Road Car Park is handy for anyone able to drive the short distance into town, if a bay with room around it is free. The A451 through Norton, Worcester Street and the ring road are the places not to stop; move off any of them first.
Nearly every Norton call comes from a home address. The streets off Norton Road and around Gigmill are largely driveway houses, and the roads between South Road and Highpark Avenue are much the same. A few calls come from the Stourbridge Town station side, or from cars left in Stanley Road Car Park while their owners were in town. Worcester Street and Norton Road carry the A451 traffic, so a car should be moved off them before any work begins. Further in, the A491 ring road allows no stopping at all. Norton pays no clean-air charge, and Birmingham's zone, inside the A4540 Middleway, lies a long way east of here.

24 hours in Norton.
Night calls from Norton are rarely dramatic. A tyre goes soft overnight on the drive, or a driver gets home along the A451 on a tyre that is losing air. Whenever the call comes, somebody answers it, and the cost is laid out in full before the van is on its way from north London.
What drivers say.
"Excellent service from start to finish. He came out quickly to help my mum change her tyre and was extremely friendly."
