What’s included in a full car valet?

Hire an experienced valeter and your full car valet should include:

• External hand wash and wax finish
• Wheel and tyre cleaning
• Door shuts, sills, and fuel cap area cleaning
• Full vacuum of seats, carpets, and boot
• Interior plastics, trims, and dashboard cleaned and dressed
• Windows and mirrors polished inside and out
• Air freshener (for that new car scent!)

Tip: If you’re looking for the ‘full Bentley treatment’, some valeters offer upholstery shampooing and leather conditioning as add-ons.

Is car valeting worth the money?

Absolutely – splashing out on car valeting is worthwhile to keep your car looking its best. It will:

• Protect your paintwork from salt, dirt, and UV damage
• Maintain your car’s resale value
• Keep your car interiors hygienic (you won’t believe how many germs can lurk on dashboard controls and seats!)
• Save time compared to DIY washing

How long should a full car valet take?

How long a full car valet takes can be broken down by service level and vehicle size:

• Mini valet – Around 45 minutes
• Full valet – Two to four hours
• Deep detailing – Half a day or more

Tip: If you’re booking a mobile valeter, factor in setup time and access to water and power.

Is valeting better than a car wash?

If you’re after a more detailed, showroom finish, valeting is the way forward. Valeters:

• Use specialised products
• Protect surfaces
• Pay attention to the fiddly details you don’t have time to clean yourself (think vents, trims, and upholstery)

A car wash service is still a handy time-saving hack. But it focuses on surface cleaning of the bodywork, rather than the inside of the car.
