Trading since 1998
I am Kev, and ProValets has been going since 4 March 1998. Over 25 years of vehicle valeting, working for myself and my family rather than a large company, and the business has grown almost entirely on people telling other people.
The van is fully equipped and completely self-contained: my own water tank, my own power. That means I can clean your car in an office car park, outside a flat with no outside tap, or on a street with nothing available at all. Nothing gets borrowed and nothing stops the job going ahead.
I am not trying to be the cheapest and I am not trying to be the biggest. I turn up when I say I will, I do the job properly, and if you are not happy I put it right. Twenty-five years and a five-star record suggest it works.
Kev, ProValets
What I do
Six services covering everything between keeping a good car good and bringing a tired one properly back. Every one of them comes to you.
Regular upkeep that keeps a good car looking good.
The one most of my regulars book. A proper contact wash, wheels and arches cleaned, glass streak-free, interior vacuumed and wiped down. Designed to run on a schedule, every two, four or six weeks, so your car never gets far enough gone to need putting right.
Inside and out, back to a standard you would be happy to sell it at.
Everything in the Mini Valet, taken considerably further. Interior gets shampooed and extracted, plastics cleaned properly rather than glossed over, and the exterior is decontaminated with tar and fallout removers before sealing. This is the one to book if the car has been neglected for a while, or before it goes up for sale.
The full reset. As close to new as a used car gets.
My flagship service and the one the business is named after. A full day on your car: everything in the Full Valet, plus a single-stage machine polish to cut back swirl marks and restore gloss, engine bay cleaned and dressed, and a durable coating applied that holds up for months rather than weeks. People book this once and then move onto a maintenance plan to keep it there.
Why ProValets
The things that actually separate a proper mobile valeter from someone with a pressure washer and a website.
The van is fully self-contained. No outside tap, no extension lead trailing out of a window, nothing borrowed from your employer. I can work in an office car park, a flat with no outside access, or a street with no facilities at all.
I work for myself and my family, not for a large company. There is no rota of subcontractors and no van driver you have never met turning up. The person who quotes your car is the person who cleans it, which is why the standard does not drift.
Most customers book me at work and collect a finished car at five o clock. Others book at home on a Saturday. I fit around you rather than the other way round, and I turn up when I say I will. I am in high demand, so booking ahead gets you the time that suits you.
Two-bucket washing, grit guards, pH-neutral chemistry, separate wheel tools, machine polishing where it is needed. The methods that stop your paint getting worse every time it is cleaned.
How it works
Tell me the car, roughly what state it is in and where it lives. I will tell you what it needs and what it costs. No visit required for standard valeting.
Home, work, anywhere with room to open the doors. I do not need your tap, your socket or your driveway to be anything special.
Same person every time. Two-bucket washing, proper chemistry, separate wheel tools, and as long as the job actually takes.
You inspect the car before anything changes hands. If something is not right I put it right. That is what the guarantee means.

Questions
No. The van carries its own water tank and power supply, so I am completely self-contained. I can work at an office, a flat, a car park or a street with no outside tap. All I need is enough room to open the car doors and walk around the vehicle.
Valeting is cleaning: bringing a car back to its best condition through washing, decontamination and interior work. Detailing goes further and corrects the paint itself, using machine polishing to permanently remove swirl marks and restore gloss, then sealing it with a durable coating. Most cars need valeting. Cars whose paint has been damaged by poor washing need detailing.
Four common reasons. New car owners want better, longer-lasting protection than a main dealer offers. Long-term owners want that new-car feeling back without changing the car. Enthusiasts see swirl marks in sunlight and want the finish perfect again. And anyone who washes their own car wants a ceramic-coated surface that is far easier to keep clean.
It depends on how the car is used and stored. A car kept outside and driven daily benefits from a maintenance valet every four to six weeks. A garaged car used at weekends can go considerably longer. If the car has been corrected and coated, a maintenance wash every four to eight weeks plus a check-over every six to twelve months keeps it where it should be.
Usually, yes. New cars can be perfected within the first six months. Cars up to two years old typically reach around 99 per cent. Older cars are harder to assess without seeing them, but with the right package most still reach 99 per cent of their defects corrected. Paint has physical limits and I will tell you honestly what is achievable before you commit.
