Tyre trouble in Oldswinford?

in Oldswinford.
Plenty of Oldswinford tyre problems are found at the end of a working day. A car left at Stourbridge Junction since the morning comes back with a soft tyre, or one driven round the ring road on New Road and St John's Road catches a kerb and comes away with a bulge. Closer to home, Hagley Road carries most of the traffic in and out of the area. Say where the car is, send the size, and the fitter arrives carrying the tyre to fit.

What we do in Oldswinford
Tyre work in Oldswinford.
A typical Oldswinford visit is a tyre replaced in a station bay while the owner waits, or a puncture mended on the drive. Repairs follow BS AU 159: the tyre comes off, is inspected on the inside, and is plugged and patched if the damage is small and clear of the shoulders. A tyre that has burst is renewed after its rim gets a proper look. A keyless locking nut can be extracted and an ordinary nut fitted. Calls are taken day and night.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Oldswinford
Drives, bays and car parks.
The Oldswinford surfaces that work are the drive, the kerb outside the house on a quieter road, and a bay in the Stourbridge Junction car parks with the operator told. Stanley Road Car Park near the town centre is another option for a car that can still roll. What does not work is the ring road, Hagley Road at a busy point, or anywhere a jack would end up sitting in a moving traffic lane.
Oldswinford's calls split between the station and the houses. On the station side, Stourbridge Junction has the Station Car Park and the Parkway, both large enough for a fitter to work in a bay once the operator is aware. On the residential side, the roads either side of Hagley Road are mainly homes with drives, while the streets closer to the town centre have more cars kept at the kerb. The ring road is another matter: the A491 loop through New Road and St John's Road allows no stopping, so a car that loses a tyre there needs to leave the loop before anything is done. Worcester Street, on the A451, is much the same. Oldswinford sits in Dudley borough, which charges no clean-air fee at all.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Oldswinford.
Evening and night calls from Oldswinford come mostly from the station: a commuter off a late train into Stourbridge Junction whose car will not go anywhere on the tyre it has. The call is answered at any hour, a tyre to suit the car is sourced, and the full figure is given before the fitter leaves Brent Cross.

Oldswinford FAQs
Questions from Oldswinford.
My car is at Stourbridge Junction with a flat. Can the tyre be fitted in the car park?
Most of the time, a marked bay there is fine to work in. Let the station operator know a tyre van is coming, then send us the size and which car park it is, the Station Car Park or the Parkway, with a rough idea of the row.
A tyre has blown on the ring road near Oldswinford. Where do I go?
Keep going gently to the first exit off the loop and stop in a side road, because nowhere on the A491 ring road allows stopping. Stranded and frightened by the traffic? That is a 999 call. Once off the ring, ring 07473 720871 with the size.
Do you treat Oldswinford as its own area or as part of Stourbridge?
Both, in effect. Oldswinford, DY8, gets its own visit to the address you give, whether that is near Hagley Road, Upper Swinford or Bouchall. The van sets off from north London, so a believable arrival time is part of that first conversation.
Will I need to pay anything before the fitter arrives?
Nothing is paid in advance. You hear the figure while still on the call, and you settle up only after the new tyre is fitted and torqued. The enquiry itself costs nothing, so asking what a tyre in your size would be is free.
