Roadside emergency questions
Q.How fast can you reach a roadside job in Pensnett?
Roadside calls are prioritised. From our Oldbury base most Pensnett jobs are reached inside the hour, faster off-peak via A491.
Q.Will you tow me if it won't start?
We are a mobile battery and starting specialist, not a recovery operator. If the fault is beyond a battery we tell you straight away so recovery can be arranged without wasted time.
Q.Do you cover Pensnett and the DY5 area for this?
Yes. Pensnett is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via A491, roughly 1 miles from Kingswinford. We cover it alongside Kingswinford and the surrounding streets.
Q.Is there a night surcharge?
No. Same price at 3am as at 3pm. We think surcharging people who are already stranded is bad business.
Q.I'm on my own and don't feel safe — can you stay on the phone?
Yes — we do this all the time. We'll stay on the line until we arrive, and you can share your live location if that helps.
Q.I'm on a live carriageway — what should I do first?
Get everyone out on the nearside and behind a barrier if it is safe, hazards on, and call the emergency services if you are on a motorway. Then call us.
