Mobile Battery Fitting, Olton — With Van Jumpstart
Battery supplied and fitted at your Olton address — correct chemistry, coded where needed, old unit recycled. Van Jumpstart included, 24/7.
Fitting on-site removes the two things people dislike about battery replacement: the trip to a factor with a heavy box, and the discovery that the "matching" unit does not physically fit the tray.
Commercial vans park up cold overnight in Olton and refuse to start when the temperature drops. That's parasitic drain plus an ageing battery — a jumpstart on the spot beats a tow every time.
Around Olton the common jobs are morning no-starts on the yard, lunch-break dead batteries at customer sites, and end-of-day flatlines after tail-lift or refrigeration use.
Who books a fitting
People who have been quoted a workshop rate plus a recovery cost for a job that takes twenty minutes on a driveway.
Domestically, Edwardian semis and converted flats dominate around here, which shapes how these jobs are accessed and worked.
Where we fit
Edwardian semis in the area means most fittings are kerbside or driveway jobs rather than garage work, which suits a mobile operation.
Locally that means the streets between Olton and Solihull, with access via M42 J4/J5 and A34 Stratford Road and a practical radius reaching Solihull (~2 mi) and Shirley (~2 mi).

Recent job nearby: an on-site AGM fitting near M42 J4/J5, coded to the BMS with stop-start confirmed working before leaving.
Specification, coding and fixing
- AGM and EFB units are registered to the vehicle's battery management system where fitted.
- Memory retention is used during the swap so radio codes, seat memory and steering angle calibration survive the disconnection.
- Alternator output tested at idle and at 2000 rpm before we leave, so we know the recharge will actually work
- On a van jumpstart the equipment is matched to the vehicle — cranking current, terminal layout and battery location all change the approach.

Battery fitting questions
Q.Do you take the old battery away?
Yes, every time, for proper recycling. Nothing is left behind.
Q.Do you cover Olton and the B92 area for this?
Yes. Olton is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M42 J4/J5, roughly 2 miles from Solihull. We cover it alongside Solihull and the surrounding streets.
Q.What if the van battery keeps going flat every week?
That's parasitic drain — usually a dashcam, tracker or aftermarket electrics wired to permanent live. We do a milliamp draw test and identify the circuit.
Q.Can you invoice a fleet directly?
Yes — 30-day account terms and single monthly invoice for multi-vehicle operators. Just send us the fleet list.
Q.What warranty comes with the battery?
Two to four years depending on the type fitted — standard flooded, EFB or AGM — with the paperwork issued at the vehicle.
Q.Will I lose my radio code and settings?
Not with memory retention in place, which is used as standard on any vehicle that needs it.
