Sounds like a lazy tyre fitter with a windy gun.
The first few turns should be tight (I use a 2ft breaker to start them, through me shoulder hating too much pressure) and a standard 1/2" ratchet should do it

None of the services specifically say it to my knowledge, I've had a check done on tyre changes in the past
