Starting a car valet business

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 30 Aug 2017 13:06:00 +0100

There is satisfaction to be had preparing a vehicle ready for a car show or just knowing it looks its best. If you have tried out all the best wash, wax and polish products on the market, you may consider it as a sideline or a business.

There is lots of general advice available online about setting up a company, for example how to write a business plan. But it is important to find industry specific advice too. Today's post is from Motor Trade Insurances. Whilst insuring businesses in this trade, they have picked up some top tips for aspiring entrepreneurs.

Get suitable equipment.

Investing time in seeking out the correct equipment will save time in the long run.

There are a wide range of pressure washers, from different brands. Valets can choose from a range of pressure levels. London Power Tools offer detailed product specifications and descriptions on their website. This can help valeting companies find equipment that matches their requirements.

It is important to try a range of products prior to trading. Our favourites are Armorall and Wynns. We particularly like the Armorall Heavy-duty car wash which lifts even the stubbornness dirt.

An industrial vacuum cleaner is a must buy essential for all enterprise scale valet businesses. Where a smaller one may have sufficed for friends a family an optimum device with useful attachments will be more practical. If you are choosing to work from home, or a customers driveway, a heavy duty cleaner that can be used in wet and dry conditions will be essential. Click here to check out a demo video of the Husqvarna DC 1400.

Do lots of research

A quick search and we found this book from professional detailer Renny Doyle. It documents his advice after a successful career in car detailing and may be useful for an aspiring entrepreneur in this sector. It has been described as a "must have for any professional detailer".

Rated with over 4 stars on lots of sites it is available for only £15.49 on The Book Depository. The book description states that it gives important advice about planning start up costs, as well as marketing a business. It even includes work sheets designed to help with planning.

Get the correct insurance coverage

By taking customers vehicles into their care, professional car cleaning services open themselves up to some level of risk. Fortunately there are insurance policies designed specifically for valeting companies.

This type of insurance falls under the term motortrade insurance. Companies working with cars will typically have a policy built to match their requirements. For example if a valet works with more supercars than hot hatches they will need additional coverage.

The good news is this type of insurance is surprisingly affordable and can even be offered on a part time basis for those working from home. To learn out more about this type of coverage click here.

Weather the storm... with Stihl

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 29 Mar 2016 12:09:00 +0100

Many of us are still feeling the effects of the over 70mph winds we've felt across the UK, with that in mind we've perhaps got some products which may come in handy. Trees have been broken clean in half, fallen across roads, into and damaging properties. Getting things back in order can be a huge and time consuming task, make sure you've got the best equipment for the job with a Stihl chainsaw.

The Stihl MS171 for example is one of a new generation of occasional use saws, the chain saw features reduced-emission engine technology. Reducing fuel consumption by up to 20% compared to its predecessor, this innovative saw saves the user both time and money. Ideal for homeowners, the STIHL MS 171 is good for cutting firewood, felling small trees or completing clean up tasks. Due to Stihl delivery restrictions we can only deliver these to selected postcodes, you can check if you're inside of our delivery postcodes here: https://www.londonpowertools.co.uk/custom/areas-we-cover-for-stihl-delivery-c22#stihlareas if you are not within this range please read on.

A excellent alternative to this Stihl chainsaw is the Husqvarna 236 chainsaw which is easy to start and operate, the Husqvarna 236 chainsaw is exceptionally easy to use, and comes with a number of helpful features to boost performance like Air Purge, and a powerful X-Torq® 38cc petrol chainsaw engine with low emissions. This machine can be delivered to any postcode.

We hope this information has been helpful and we hope everyone stays safe.

Featured Product Of The Week - Mafell KSS40 18v Crosscut Saw + Flexi rail

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 3 Nov 2015 13:20:00 GMT

Building on the success of the KSS 300, Mafell have brought to the market a tool which combines the power, perforamce and conveiance of some of the most popular power tools in the trade. It combines the uses and benefits of a Mitre Saw, Plunge Saw and Circular Saw - and now its not only half the size of most of the above, but its also cordless!,,Cross Cutting System - in more ways than one.,The KSS is known as a 'cross cutting system' which is a term that may seem unfamiliar but it will get used more and more over the coming years. In this sense it references the KSS 40s ability to do every 'style' of cut that either a circular, plunge or mitre saw can do along with its built in guide rail which comes ready attached.,,With adjustable stops either side the guide rail, it can be set to allow the KSS 40 to cut at an angle from -450 to +600. These stops can be left at your desired angle or adjusted in the blink of an eye. This gives you the ability to create consistant cuts the the same angle and with the portability of the saw it means duplicate cuts are fast and easy no matter where the material is.

It can also be beveled of to an angle between 0 and 450 so you are able to make angled cuts as well as beveled cuts. - Somthing that is quick and easy with the KSS 40.

You can also PLUNGE with this saw. If you don't want to start you're cut from the edge of you material as you would need to if you were using a circular saw. The KSS 40 18M bl has a unique function that allows you to get the saw into position before you cut, then you can plunge down into you material and cut exactly the whole/space you need. - Perfect for cutting out sinks in a worktop.

Adjust to you and your job.

Just because this saw is able to achieve so much in half the size, don't think that Mafell have taken anything away when it comes to fine adjustment. It still has a cutting depth adjustment, plunge and bevel guides as well as a battery gauge indicator.

There even a sawblade lock, for changing blades and a splinter guard and piviot guard for producing the best possible cuts.

The slightness of the KSS 40 18M bl also comes into its own with sawing shadow gaps alongside wall edges or skirting. The blade is so close to the edge of the saw that cutting a shadow gap at around 13mm is fast, easy and accurate.

Brushless Motor, Batteries and other accessories

The motor itself is a highly efficent brushless motor, which is small, durable and gets the most out of the batteries. It is maintenance free and optimised to increased performance and power.

Being a full system the KSS 40 18M bl comes complete with 2 x 5.2Ah li-ion batteries, which offer incredible run time and performance that matches some AC (corded) models. The batteries hold their charge and can be run flat or charged with energy still left over. The charger will actively cool-down the batteries whilst charging them to. This helps fight against overheating.

Also included in the set is a Fkexi-Guide rail with is an alluminium rail that can curl up and be stored away in the box, or sprung out into shape to give you a large guide rail for longer cuts.
