Title: 3 Counties Valeting
Post by: Frankie-Boy on November 14, 2005, 21:49:53

Just had my Disco valeted today, the guy spent about 4 hours on it and did the lot inside and out and what a crackin' job he did, I'm very pleased with the result, all for £75 too, Bargain.

I think it was more a case of only £75 for 4 hours work!? That equals £18.75 per hour, which seems way cheap... unless it's just some bloke with an Escort estate, bucket and sponge :wink:  :lol:

No, the guy has a proper sign-written van with all the equipment in and whats more he knows how to use it properly and bearing in mind the motor hasn't had a <proper> clean since I bought it over 3 years ago, I thought the price was very good.

Richard,

Although I don't live on starvation NHS wages like you do, I live in a very modest bungalow and not a whacking great mansion like yours.  :wink:

Ah but he only took 4 hours to do it.....

He's self employed and will have grafted.
Whereas elsewhere you'd have been charged for 8 hours even though it only took 4.
He'd have been off to the next job straight away and cracked on.

I'd sooner pay for 4 hours of someone that knows what they are doing and there is actually an art to proper valeting than 8 hours of your bucket and shammy brigade.

Oh by the way to do a proper valeting job there's some quite expensive products used to get the process down to 4 hours.

Me! I'd never have the patience for it.
