A fitter at your car
in Summerfield.
Summerfield tyres live a city life: busy A-roads, parked cars close together, and trade traffic heading to the Summerfield Industrial Estate. A slow puncture picked up on the Dudley Road or Winson Green Road often shows itself the next morning. Rather than limping somewhere to have it looked at, stay parked and ring. Tell us the size and which street, and a matching tyre comes to you from the Brent Cross base.

Tyre work in Summerfield.
Most of the work in Summerfield is punctures and replacements on everyday cars, plus vans from the industrial estates. A puncture in the central tread gets an internal repair, meeting BS AU 159, if its size and position qualify. Damage beyond that means a new tyre. Following a burst, the fitter looks the rim over and then fits the new tyre, and a locked wheel without its key is freed with a removal tool. There is a callout line open around the clock.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
The two Gilbert Road car parks are the nearest public options, and the fitter can meet a car there as long as it will make the trip. Industrial estate yards suit vans with the site's consent. On residential streets, clear space beside the wheel is what matters. The Tollgate Shopping Centre is another place to meet if it is easier to reach. Dudley Road and Winson Green Road themselves are unsuitable for any roadside work.
People call from the streets around Summerfield Park, from the houses off Dudley Road and Winson Green Road, and from the trade units on the Summerfield Industrial Estate and Heath Street Industrial Estate. Postcodes are B16 and B18, with Winson Green and Ladywood close by. On-street parking can be crowded, so a spot where the car sits clear of traffic matters. The A457 Dudley Road and the A4040 are not safe to work on. Staff at the City Hospital site on Dudley Road call too, often at the end of a long shift. The Clean Air Zone begins further in, at the Ladywood Middleway and Icknield Street, so Summerfield is outside the charging area altogether.
