Mobile tyre fitting

A fitter at your car
in Walmley.
Walmley has no big trunk road running through it, and that shapes the tyre calls. Most are found at home: a slow puncture that has flattened a tyre overnight on the drive, or a nail spotted on the way out along Walmley Road. Longer trips towards Minworth or Castle Vale supply the rest. The car seldom has to move an inch. Give the size and your postcode, and the fitter comes with a tyre to match.

Tyre work in Walmley.
Replacement car tyres, SUV sizes and EV fitments included, are sourced to the exact size and fitted on the spot. With a tread puncture, the tyre is dismounted and inspected, and if it passes the size and position limits set by BS AU 159, it is repaired from inside. A tyre destroyed by a blowout is replaced with the wheel checked for damage. A missing locking wheel nut key is handled by removing the nut. The callout line is open every day, around the clock.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
The drive at home is best. A residential close with room to kneel beside the wheel is the alternative. The Asda and Co-operative Food car parks are workable if the car is already there, though both are short stay. The Pype Hayes Park car park is not far off, if the car is still fit to drive. Walmley Road outside the shops, and the busier stretches of Penns Lane, are not usable surfaces.
Calls come from the avenues and closes behind Walmley Road, from along Penns Lane and Eachelhurst Road, and from the Thimble End and Walmley Ash sides. This is driveway country, and the great majority of jobs are done on one. Where a car is parked on the road, a quiet close is fine, with the car kept away from bends and turnings. The B4148 through the middle, especially near the shops, is the busiest stretch and not the place to jack a car. Everything in B76 sits far outside the Birmingham Clean Air Zone. Vans leave from Brent Cross, north London, which is why timing gets settled truthfully on the phone and not printed on this page.

24 hours in Walmley.
Walmley's late calls are mostly households: a car home late with the pressure light glowing, or a flat found at first light before the school run. Whoever picks up at night takes the details, confirms the tyre, and agrees the price with you before any journey begins.
