Tyre trouble in Perry Common?

The Outer Circle is the road that does most of the damage around Perry Common. It carries a steady stream of traffic all day, and a tyre clipped on a kerb at a junction or a screw collected from the edge of the carriageway usually goes unnoticed until the car is home. Then it is a soft tyre on the drive, or against the kerb beside the front gate. Nobody needs to nurse it anywhere. Copy the size off the sidewall, text it over with your postcode, and that exact tyre travels out in the van.

What we do in Perry Common
Tyre work in Perry Common.
Replacement tyres here are ordered against the full sidewall code, load and speed ratings included, so the right one turns up. Punctures are repaired properly: the tyre comes off the rim, its inner lining gets examined, and a combined patch and plug goes in where the damage falls within the repairable zone of BS AU 159. Should a tyre give out on the Outer Circle, it is swapped for new and the rim is checked for dents. Lost the locking nut key? Removing the nut is routine work.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Perry Common
Drives, bays and car parks.
The driveway, or the road outside the house provided the car sits straight and well back from a junction. Machin Road Car Park is public, handy for a car able to cover a few hundred yards. The Princess Alice Retail Park car park has room to work in, and a corner away from the entrance suits it best. The Aldi and Co-op Food car parks are cramped, meant for brief visits. Pub car parks and anything private need the owner's agreement first, which is rarely worth chasing.
Calls come from the housing between Marsh Hill and College Road, from the streets near Brookvale Road towards Brookvale Village, and from the Short Heath and Upper Witton edges. Most homes have either a drive or a kerb outside with room to work, and that covers most of the work here. The Outer Circle itself is not a working surface: a car stopped on Marsh Hill or Reservoir Road is sitting in the traffic, and so is one on the A453. Streetly Road and Marsh Lane are quieter but still through routes, so a side street off them is better. Perry Common is several miles clear of the Birmingham Clean Air Zone, so a driver here pays nothing unless a non-compliant car is taken into the city centre.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Perry Common.
After dark the calls from Perry Common come from people back late along Reservoir Road or College Road with a warning light on, and from shift workers facing a flat before dawn. The line stays staffed all night, and no van moves until you have said yes to the cost.

Perry Common FAQs
Questions from Perry Common.
Can you fit a tyre in the Princess Alice Retail Park car park?
The car park is open enough for it. Pick a bay out of the way of the entrance and the heaviest traffic, describe where you have stopped, and the tyre goes on there, as long as the car made the trip in safely.
My car is outside the house on Marsh Hill. Can you work on it there?
Marsh Hill is part of the Outer Circle and carries steady traffic, so the roadside there is not safe for a wheel change. If the tyre allows it, move the car a short way into a side street, or up onto a drive, and the work happens there.
What postcode does Perry Common come under?
Perry Common is B23, shared with Erdington, Short Heath and Stockland Green. The full postcode with the street name tells the fitter which side of the Outer Circle the car is parked on, which saves time finding it.
Can a tyre with a screw through it be saved?
That depends on where the screw went in. A hole of 6 mm or less, placed in the main central band of the tread, is normally fixable from inside. Near the tread edge, or anywhere on the sidewall, BS AU 159 rules out mending it, so the tyre is replaced.
