Excellent prewash and interaction with staff member. The drying towelling at the end of the wash has been removed which now leaves the car quite wet in places, hence the loss of one star.

Quite easy and straight forward experience. Most of the staff are great except the boss female does not come across friendly and was annoyed at me when my automatic hand break came on accidentally.... See more

Not good

The gentleman came out, obviously eating his lunch at the time as it was all over him.
I come to the car wash quite often and usually the man will do clean with the brush before going through the car wash. He didn't do this and as a result the car wasn't fully clean. The back window wasn't cleaned.

I paid for a top wash

I paid for a top wash, I also sent an email complaining that the wash was terrible, this was ignored. There was streaks and soap marks all over my car, but today when I was driving in the rain all windows on the car were rendered useless because of chemicals left on the window, basically I couldn't see a thing.

Trust the guys from the cleaning

The guys told me to buy a full package exterior and interior but I wanted to buy separately and I arrived to the same price. Trust the guys

DJ_Trigg,

Thank you for your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your car was not cleaned to your satisfaction and still had patches of dirt. This is certainly not the standard we aim for.

Very poor

Very poor
Letchworth seems to have some kind of problem all the time. They closed early last week and I went in for the wash yesterday Wednesday. Initially there was an issue with the moving belt , I had to honk for them to check they were busy inside instead of being on the controls. Then I noticed the brushes didn’t touch my windscreen and the roof , I immediately reported it and demanded a re wash to which the staff said “they don’t let us do it you go to customer care and get a voucher and comeback. What a waste of time.

Ok but not a great wash

Ok but not a great wash. Wheels and mirrors were not cleaned properly. Needed a quick convenient wash but will go to a handwashing next time.
