Re: Car Valeting

A couple of years back we paid £45 for a full valet on our car.
He came in his van, spent an age doing the job, and though the car looked good, it wasn't until the next day we realised the seats were damp and the carpets wet. It stank for days and we had to leave the windows open 'til it all dried.
Needless to say we never had him back!
We now go to a 'while you wait' place, just before the MOT is due. (free coffee or tea too )

Re: Car Valeting

I think there's a while you wait place not far from where I live, but I don't know if they have a waiting area. I suppose they must do. Jimmy on here might know, but I'll look into it.

Re: Car Valeting

I've never used a valeting company Mollie, the only one I know is Shine On Valeting, just off Chapel Lane, I think it starts at £40 for a full valet, and they have a free pick up and delivery service, so they can pick it up at your home or place of work.

When I next want mine doing, I'm taking it round to Andycapp's

Re: Car Valeting

Thanks Jimmy. I found a link for Shine-On and it looks a good deal. I was wondering if that place was still open down Ormskirk Road, where the old petrol station was (near Union Bridge).

I might have a drive down on Sunday to see if it's still there. Failing that, Andycapp's sounds like a good place as well as long as we don't wear poor old Flo out!

Re: Car Valeting

Mollie the Jet wash for £1 is down Cemetery lane near the Old Hall just before the railway bridge on your left.

Re: Car Valeting

Well, I finally got around to having my car valeted at long last. Full monty except for a hand polish was £15 and they did a brilliant job on it.

However I didn't know it was cash only so, when it was done, I had to drive a mile back up to the village, with one of the guys, and withdraw my money from the cash machine. I felt awful, but they didn't seem to mind. Trust me to do summat daft!

Re: Car Valeting

You're not right you Mollie

I can't believe you didn't ask do they take plastic.

I hope you took the chap back again.

Re: Car Valeting

No, to be fair on meself, I did try ringing to ask, but the mobile number kept going to answer machine so I gave up and just went on the off-chance. At least I'll know next time I go and yes, I took the person back again.
