Why the range is so wide

The gap between £40 and £3,200 mostly separates a single wash or maintenance valet from specialist correction, coating and protection-film work, rather than one business over- or under-charging. Waxworks Professional Detailing and Valeting in Ashford publishes the widest single list, from a £40 snow foam wash up through a £200 full valet with machine polish to an £800 Gtechniq ceramic coating. Elite Finish Solutions, also in Ashford, sits at the top of the table on its own: a £300 Day in a Bay detail, an £800 gold package, and paint protection film packages running from £1,200 for a front-end kit to £3,200 for the full car, all plus VAT. JWM Automotive Detailing in Deal and The Brilliant Car Cleaning Company, which covers Sevenoaks, Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells, Edenbridge and Crowborough, both sit in a more everyday £60-£250 band running from a mini valet or engine bay clean up to a full valet or brake calliper painting. C&M Valeting in Bexhill and KB Mobile Detail in Hastings publish similar mid-range lists, from a £55-£140 basic valet or deep clean up to paint enhancement and ceramic coating work at £320-£425.

Have the make, model and current condition of the car ready when you call, since correction, coating and protection-film quotes in particular depend on how much work the paint needs before any product goes on, and a mobile valeter will also want to know where the car is parked and whether you can supply water and power.
