- High-touch points wiped down — handles, belt buckles, switchgear
- Odour treatment available for smoke and food smells
- Quick-turnaround slots so the car is back earning
Interiors that pass inspection
Licensing checks look at the same things passengers do: stained seats, gritty carpets, sticky door cards, marked seat belts. The Super Valet at £25 covers vacuum, dash, door panels and glass inside and out; the Full Valet at £65 adds seat and carpet shampooing when the car needs resetting.
Turnaround and scheduling
A car off the road is a car not earning. We keep exterior washes to a tight turnaround and can book you a standing slot at a quiet time of day so you are in and out. Multi-car operators can run on an account with one monthly invoice.
Odours and heavy use
Food, smoke and damp are the three smells that build up in a high-mileage private hire car. Deep-cleaning the carpets and seats removes the source rather than masking it, which is the only approach that lasts. Every car here is washed by hand using the two-bucket method — one bucket of pH-neutral shampoo, one of clean rinse water with a grit guard — with wheels cleaned first using separate brushes and mitts so nothing off the road ever goes back onto the paint.
Executive and chauffeur work
Chauffeur cars — usually an E-Class, 5 Series, V-Class or similar — need the exterior finish to match the interior. Wash & Dry before every job keeps brightwork spot-free, with a Gold Valet monthly to keep the paint looking its best.
Frequently asked
Can you turn a taxi around quickly?+
Yes. Exterior washes are quick; call ahead for a full valet and we will set a slot aside so you are not waiting.
Do you invoice monthly for multiple cars?+
Yes — operators with several vehicles can run on an account. Ask us to set one up.
Can you remove smoke smell?+
A deep interior clean removes the source in most cases. Very heavy long-term smoke may need repeat treatment, and we will be honest about that before starting.
