EXCEPTIONAL VALETING WITH PASSION
Hi, my name is Richard Lister and along with my wife Kathryn, we own and run Why Queue Vehicle Valeting. For many years I've had a passion for looking after my own vehicles, from privately owned cars to company cars.
I had often thought about giving up a secure job in print management, but having a young family, it was very hard to make that giant leap of faith to leave a steady secure job for a dream. As the years rolled on and the print management industry became more and more unpredictable and finally after being made redundant in 2016, I decided to turn a dream into reality.
​
In October 2016 our concept WHY QUEUE VEHICLE VALETING was born, with our new van purchased and fully kitted out with all the professional equipment required, we were ready for a new and exciting chapter in our lives.
​
Both my wife and I have come from customer service backgrounds, which we believe is paramount to running a successful business from the initial enquiry through to job completion.
​
We hope as you look through our website and read our customer testimonials, you can appreciate our passion for customer service and excellence in every aspect of our business. We look forward to hearing from you.
​
Thank you.
Richard & Kathryn
Equipment we bring to your valet
We carry our own 280 litre water tank which is more than sufficient to service a full days work at my clients home or place of work. The water tank is connected through to a very quiet Kranzle power wash which has variable control to ensure your vehicles paintwork or caravan seals are not put under excessive water pressure.
We also carry a petrol generator for when access to power is unaccessible on site.
We have a professional pop up 4.5m x 3m gazebo which can be completely enclosed. This can be used when private or business clients have booked a full day of valeting and guarantees our work can continue whatever the unpredictable British weather throws at us.
We use a high quality snowfoam safely applied with our Kranzle power wash and use buckets with specialist valeters grit guards to protect your paintwork from, grit and dirt. A professional Gtechniq wash mitt is used to gently remove dirt from the delicate surface of your vehicle.
Specific interior and exterior detailing brushes are used to clean surfaces carefully. We only use Autoglym acid free alloy cleaners along with thick and soft long reach brushes to safely remove brake dust from the delicate surfaces of your alloys.
