Ice Hockey Goalie Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I have today had my van valeted. I usually do it myself but this year I though I would 'treat' the old lass to a proper spit 'n' polish. I would like to thoroughly recommend D. R. B Caravan services based in Donny. What an outstanding level of service. They come to you, are completely self sufficient and what a job! Rebecca spent nearly 6 hours on my van today and let me tell you it is GLEAMING! inside and out. They will travel nationwide it would seem as she told me she was in Wales for a valet last week, so if you want a real TOP job doing inside, outside or both then give them a shout, you will NOT be dissapointed. PM me for details. Quote I would be honoured if you could spare a few pounds to sponsor me.

LizB Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 We have also used this firm over the last two years. They valeted the van in storage and did an excellent job. Quote Grand cherokee+ Swift Conqueror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bendigo Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hi what does that cost roughly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Hockey Goalie Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 The book price is 45 outside, 45 inside. But get them both and pay less. For the amount of work Rebecca put in to it and the end result I am VERY happy with it. Quote I would be honoured if you could spare a few pounds to sponsor me.

Vernon Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I've managed to clean my own caravan for the past 37 years, and for £90 a time I think I will continue to do! At £45 to clean the outside, a cover will soon pay for it's self. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atom Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 [quote name='Vernon' a cover will soon pay for it's self. To be fair, if you are able to put a cover on yourself then you have no need for cleaning services. Some people just dont have time, or are unable to climb a large step ladder to wash their van so they have it valeted. ..spread 90 quid over a year and it doesnt seem that bad. How much do people spend on others washing their car over a year ? Ant Quote Atom If it sounds too good to be true-----it probably is !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Hockey Goalie Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 It's a 'luxury' buy no doubt. As I said, I also clean my own every year but this year I had a little trick on the nags and decided to get it done professionally. The difference is marked, although I have never been dissatisfied with my own efforts you can deffo tell that this has been done - and then some! +, she spent nearly 7 hours on it! When I do it I am done in 2 max. ... Quote I would be honoured if you could spare a few pounds to sponsor me.

Tourershine Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Thanks for the Information Rebecca. To justify my price regarding my roof wax costs. This is a job that can be more involved and labour intensive than the rest of the caravan. This is why it would cost an extra £65 to fully wax and seal a roof. Is does state exactly what you get for your money on my website. I do also offer the equivatent service as drb in my Standard valet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entwood Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 (edited) Seems a good recomendation . ... which is always nice . ... but I wonder if it is a viable business plan for them . ..... 7 hours work for £90 with tax, insurance, travel costs and consumables to be deducted . .. doesn't leave much Just my thoughts . . no criticism of their work intended Edited June 18, 2009 by Entwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
