Mobile tyre fitting

A fitter at your car
in Quarry Bank.
Quarry Bank is a hillside of terraces, and its tyre calls reflect that. Cars parked on steep streets, kerbs taken too tightly when turning off the High Street, and screws picked up at the trading estates towards Lye. The A4036 runs past on Thorns Road towards Merry Hill, and a slow leak collected there often only shows once the car is back outside the house. A fitter comes to that house, with the right size already in the van.

Tyre work in Quarry Bank.
Quarry Bank work is a mix of household cars and trade vans. Tyres are sourced to the sidewall size, then mounted and balanced beside the kerb. A nail through the centre of the tread is dealt with from inside, to BS AU 159, after dismounting and a look at the liner. Burst tyres are replaced, a keyless locking nut is freed with a purpose-made tool, and the phone line runs every day and night.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
A drive is best where there is one. Otherwise, a level stretch of kerb wide enough for someone to work on the offside wheel without stepping into traffic. Works yards on the nearby trading estates suit vans, provided whoever runs the site agrees. The A4100 High Street and Thorns Road are not usable for a wheel change, and neither is any street where the car sits on a noticeable slope. If in doubt, describe the spot when you ring.
The High Street and Mount Pleasant carry the A4100, so they are the spine people describe their address from, but few jobs happen on them. Most calls come from the side streets off them, where cars sit at the kerb outside terraced houses and space alongside is the thing to look for. Dunns Bank, Saltbrook End and Nether End are the same story. The slope matters: a jack on a gradient is unsafe, so a car on a steep street may need moving a few lengths to a level spot first. None of the parking marked nearby is plainly public, so the kerb or a drive is the answer. Cradley Heath station lies just over the boundary for anyone who parks there.

24 hours in Quarry Bank.
After dark the Quarry Bank calls tend to be a car found flat outside the house late in the evening, or a van needed for an early start that will not be going anywhere on its own. Ring at any hour. Both parts of the bill, tyre and callout, are named on the phone before anything is booked.
