A blow-out never happens at a convenient time. That is why Marlows Tyre and Valeting runs a genuine round-the-clock emergency tyre service across Walsall and the wider Black Country. From motorway hard shoulders to supermarket car parks, our crews carry common tyre sizes, repair kits and the kit needed to get you moving again fast.
If it is safe to do so, pull well away from traffic, switch on your hazards and give us your location. Stay with your vehicle and our team will keep you updated on arrival time by phone.
Based in central Walsall, Marlows Tyre and Valeting looks after drivers across the Black Country. Choose your area to see local availability, or visit us at the depot - most jobs are finished within the hour.
If a tyre fails while you drive: stay calm, ease off the accelerator, keep both hands on the wheel and pull up somewhere level and well away from traffic. Put your hazards on, keep passengers inside the vehicle, and have the road name, postcode and tyre size ready - all three speed up our response.
Our crew inspects the damage on arrival. Many motorway-style punctures are repair-ready to British Standard on the spot; blow-outs and sidewall damage need a replacement, which the van can carry if we know your size in advance. You get an honest answer and an agreed price before any work begins.
Response times vary with traffic, but our target within Walsall town and surrounding areas is under the hour for emergency call-outs.
Many can. If a safe permanent repair is not possible at the roadside we can fit your spare or arrange recovery to our workshop.
