Fleet valeting is set up in four steps — an enquiry, a Fleet Readiness Audit of the site and cars, a proposal, and a first visit that records each car’s starting condition — after which it runs on a fixed schedule. On a service day, technicians clean each car where it is parked, apply PureShield and record a 20-point condition check, with the report sent the same day.
What happens at the first enquiry?
A short conversation about the fleet. The questions are practical:
- how many cars there are, and which types
- where they are parked during the working day
- what the current cleaning arrangement is
- whether there are specific needs — ESG reporting, staff booking their own cars, preparing cars for lease return
What does the Fleet Readiness Audit look at?
The site and the cars, before anything is agreed:
- Parking layout — where the cars are and how technicians reach them
- Site access — sign-in, restricted areas and working hours
- The cars — current condition and how dirty they typically get
- Stakeholders — what the fleet manager, facilities team and drivers each need from the service
What goes into the proposal?
The service tier for each type of car, how often each is valeted, the schedule, per-car pricing by vehicle class, the reporting specification, and whether staff get a booking portal for their own cars. A pilot is available before committing, and there is no multi-year lock-in.
What does the fleet need to provide?
Very little: car park access, a key arrangement for locked cars if needed, and a site induction on the first visit. No water, electricity, drainage or equipment — the technician brings everything the waterless process needs.
What happens on a service day?
Technicians work car by car where the cars are parked. Each car gets:
- a waterless exterior clean — pre-treatment misted onto each panel, lifted away with clean microfibre
- the interior service for its tier, from a vacuum and refresh on Basic to deep carpet and mat extraction on Full
- PureShield ceramic protection on the paint
- a 20-point Vehicle Health Check, each point marked OK, Advisory or Urgent, with photos of anything flagged
The first visit also establishes each car’s baseline condition, so later changes can be dated. How the cleaning itself works is covered in how waterless fleet valeting works.
What happens after each visit?
The report arrives the same day by email, WhatsApp and the customer portal, and at fleet level the records roll up by registration with urgent and advisory counts and CSV export. From then on the service runs on its rotation without anyone booking each visit; changes to the schedule, new cars or extra services are a message away. How often each car should be seen is covered in how often a company car fleet should be valeted.
Our rounds cover sites across London and Surrey, including mobile car valeting in Leatherhead and mobile car valeting in Epsom, and the service model is on our Corporate fleet services page.
Fleet managers can start with the site and car review through a Fleet Readiness Audit.
