- 24/7 Emergency Jumpstart work here is judged against the vehicle's own specification rather than a generic pass mark.
Response time questions
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.Will you come out in bad weather?
Yes — snow, ice, heavy rain, we still go. Batteries fail more often in bad weather, not less.
Q.What is a realistic ETA for Sparkhill?
Typically 45–60 minutes in normal traffic, quicker off-peak, longer if we are mid-job when you call. You get an honest figure on the phone.
Q.Is there a fee for a faster response?
No priority surcharge. Emergency and roadside jobs are prioritised by risk, not by payment.
Q.Do you carry batteries or come back later?
Stock is on the van, covering standard flooded, EFB and AGM in the common sizes, so most jobs complete on the first visit.
Q.Do you cover Sparkhill and the B11 area for this?
Yes. Sparkhill is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M6 J6 (Spaghetti Junction), roughly 3 miles from Birmingham. We cover it alongside Birmingham and the surrounding streets.
