A fitter at your car
in Saltley.
Saltley works for a living, and much of its tyre trouble belongs to vans. Commercial vehicles going in and out of Saltley Business Park and the trading estates collect screws and scrap metal from yards, while the Saltley Viaduct and Adderley Road carry heavy traffic that punishes a weak tyre. A flat found at the start of a shift costs a working day unless it is dealt with on site. Send the size, the load rating and the unit, and the job is done there.

Tyre work in Saltley.
Commercial and car tyres are sourced to the sidewall markings, including the load index, which matters on a working van. Tread punctures are assessed off the rim and repaired from inside where BS AU 159 permits; anything beyond that is replaced. A blown tyre is swapped and the wheel checked for damage before it goes back on. Where a locking nut key has been lost from a fleet vehicle, the fitter removes the nut and leaves the alloy unmarked. All of it happens at the van.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
A yard or unit forecourt inside Saltley Business Park or a neighbouring estate is the best surface for a van, level and out of traffic, once whoever runs the site has agreed. For a car, a side street off Washwood Heath Road works if it is parked legally, and Alum Rock Road Car Park is there if the car can still crawl across. Not usable: the Saltley Viaduct, Saltley Gate itself, any stretch of Heartlands Parkway, or a loading bay a lorry is waiting for.
Calls split between the business parks and the residential streets. On the business side, Saltley Business Park, the Bordesley Trading Estate and the Rea Business Park have yards and forecourts where a van can be worked on properly, with permission from the site. On the residential side, the streets off Washwood Heath Road, Adderley Road and Highfield Road are where cars sit at the kerb. Saltley Gate, where several roads meet, is not somewhere to stop, and neither is the A47 Heartlands Parkway, a busy dual carriageway. Adderley Park and Duddeston stations sit either side, and Star City is a short run away. Saltley lies outside the Clean Air Zone, which ends at the Middleway on the far side of Nechells.
