How long does a full valet take?
We block out a full day for the £200 Full Works Package. Standard hatchbacks and saloons usually finish inside 6–7 hours; SUVs, vans and heavily soiled cars run longer and may be quoted with an uplift.

Common questions.
Do I need to provide water or power?
No. Every BrightShines van carries its own deionised water tank and on-board power. We can detail your car anywhere across Bristol, Bath and North Somerset with no setup from you.
Can you remove pet hair and ground-in dirt?
Yes. Pet hair on fabric and carpets comes out with rubber pads and fine vacuum heads, and ground-in mud lifts with steam plus extraction. Heavily contaminated cars are quoted on inspection.
Will the protection survive the first wash?
The exterior sealant we finish with is a 2–3 month spray sealant — it survives normal washing for several months but is not a substitute for a ceramic coating. Pair the valet with paint correction + ceramic if you want long-term protection.
