Employers and staff we help

Why workplace car parks generate calls
Knowle's aerospace and airport services employers run large staff car parks where vehicles sit unmoved for ten or twelve hours at a stretch.
Locally that means the streets between Knowle and Solihull, with access via M42 J4/J5 and A34 Stratford Road and a practical radius reaching Solihull (~4 mi) and Shirley (~2 mi).

Workplace callout questions
Q.Do you work on hybrids and mild-hybrids?
Yes — a hybrid still has a 12V auxiliary battery that starts everything. Toyota, Lexus, Honda and MHEV Ford/Vauxhall are all fine.
Q.Will jumpstarting damage my car's electronics?
Not with a proper lithium pack. The old risk with jump leads and a running donor car was voltage spikes — modern lithium packs are regulated and safe on any car including hybrids.
Q.Can the employer pay rather than the employee?
Yes. Tell us at booking and we invoice the business rather than taking a card at the vehicle.
Q.Do you need a site induction?
For most car parks, no. For secure or industrial sites we will follow whatever access process you have — just tell us in advance.
Q.Can you attend at shift changeover?
Yes, including evening and overnight handovers. That is when most of these calls come in.
Q.Do you cover Knowle and the B93 area for this?
Yes. Knowle is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M42 J4/J5, roughly 4 miles from Solihull. We cover it alongside Solihull and the surrounding streets.
