Prices run from £6 for a standard wash at Livingston Car Wash up to £999 for RR Car Valeting & Detailing Services' Ultimate Detail package, which reflects how differently these businesses are set up: a drive-in wash charges by the visit, while a studio offering paint correction and multi-year ceramic coating prices in hundreds rather than tens of pounds. A published “from” price is usually the cheapest version of that service on a small car in reasonable condition – heavily soiled vehicles, larger cars and add-ons such as pet hair removal or leather conditioning are typically charged on top, so treat every figure here as a starting point rather than a fixed quote.
The other twenty-seven businesses in this directory, including several long-established mobile valeters and studios, publish no prices at all. That is common among smaller and mobile operators who prefer to quote after seeing the car, and it is not by itself a sign of anything to worry about. If cost matters most to you, calling ahead with your car's size and condition will get you a like-for-like comparison faster than guessing from a headline price.
