As a car owner with both car detailing and car valeting being offered to you, it can seem confusing as to which one is the best service. 

Simply put, valeting is a professional cleaning service – a step above a machine car wash, as the treatments will be applied by hand, valeting concentrates on removing surface dirt from your vehicle. 

Whereas detailing is a cut above valeting – it’s the process of restoring and protecting your vehicle, inside and out, for a showroom-perfect look.

Detailing is a higher-level enhancement and deeper paintwork correction treatment, designed to keep your vehicle in the best condition for years to come. Detailing requires a professional skill level to deliver a flawless finish. 

The best detailing services can bring your car to a better than factory condition, by removing any contaminants from your paintwork, polishing every surface of your car until it gleams and protecting your paintwork from future damage with Ceramic Coatings or Paint Protection Film (PPF).

For all of these reasons, detailing is a more premium car care option, with a price that reflects the attention to detail your vehicle is given.

At The Pure Detail, we offer various levels of service depending on the finish you’re looking for. You can find out more about your options below, or get in touch to discuss what you’d like us to do for you.

Generally, your detail will concentrate on all areas of your vehicle, including wheels and shuts, washing, polishing and waxing your bodywork, dressing plastics and tyres, vacuuming your entire interior, dressing leather, cleaning seats and polishing windows.

We’ll remove any contaminants from your paintwork, such as pollution, tar, bird droppings, and tree sap – all of which can cause your paint to lose it’s smooth feel and shine over time.

We’ll also use professional products and tools to clean in all of those awkward areas like air vents and window seals, leaving your car looking as new as it did in the showroom.

We’ll also detail your engine, headlights, taillights and wheels. Essentially, any part of your vehicle that needs cleaning will be cleaned, so that your vehicle looks, smells and feels brand new again.

Our highest level detailing service also includes a total surface protection package, offering up to 5 years protection to your paintwork, glass, wheels, interior and engine bay. We’ll take the wheels off to be deep cleaned and coated inside and out, as well as a full interior valet and an engine bay detail. Every surface of the interior and exterior of the vehicle will be protected with the very best that Titan Coatings has to offer. As we require your vehicle for a minimum of 6 working days for this top-level service, a courtesy car may be provided for your convenience.

If you take pride in your vehicle, detailing is an essential service to protect your investment – and can even add value to your vehicle. 

Your paintwork can develop minor scratches and swirl marks over time, which we are able to remove during your detail – leaving it looking brand new again. 

A regular detailing service means that we can keep an eye out for any damage, and fend off any lasting effects to your paintwork or wheels. 

To keep your car in the best possible condition and to protect its resale value, we recommend having your car detailed every 12 months, with a maintenance service monthly to preserve the finish. This does depend on how much wear and tear you’re putting on your vehicle, and how high of a standard you wish to keep it in. We can recommend a detailing plan that’s right for your needs – just get in touch to discuss your options.

It’s also a good idea to book your car in for a detail before you sell it as this can make it far more attractive to buyers, giving you a higher sale price.

Depending on the level of detail you choose, the service can take anywhere from a few hours up to a week or more. 

Our detailing prices are dependent on your vehicle as well as the level of service, with prices starting from £550+vat. Browse your options below, or get in touch to discuss which one is the best fit for you.
