Frequently asked questions

You'll find hand car washes, touchless jet washes, drive-through tunnel washes, and full valet services in Southampton. Hand car washes typically provide a more thorough and paintwork-friendly clean than automatic brush-based systems.

Washing every two weeks is ideal for most drivers. In winter, or after driving on salted or muddy roads, more frequent washing helps protect your paintwork and underside from corrosion.

Touchless jet washes are generally safe. Brush-based automatic washes can cause fine scratches and swirl marks over time. Hand washing with a quality wash mitt and pH-neutral shampoo is the most paintwork-friendly option.

A car wash focuses on exterior (and sometimes basic interior) cleaning. A valet is a more comprehensive professional clean that includes interior vacuuming, window polishing, tyre dressing, trim cleaning, and often a wax or sealant application for paint protection.

A mini valet covering interior and exterior cleaning starts from £25–£50. A full valet with machine polish and sealant ranges from £80–£200 depending on vehicle size and condition.
