Valeting in Caterham & The Ridge: what you're working with.
Written valeter to valeter. This is the ground truth the lead apps have never stood on — at seven in the morning, with the tank full.
The driveways. Period houses in the centre of Caterham, family estates around it, farms past the sign — and a car, usually two, at every layer. New closes on the edge of Caterham arrive pre-sold — young families, two cars, no spare Saturday — one leaflet week there fills a month. House sales run near 484 a year on this patch, and lease cycles turn over on top of that — the book takes a steady feed from both.
The parking. Only market day complicates the centre of Caterham; the estates and the villages never complicate anything. Centre cottages take a little choreography and estate drives take none — price both honestly and the whole town is workable. The region's hard water hands the trade a built-in showcase: the gap between a home wash and a properly finished, spot-free result is visible from the pavement.
The round. The CR3 round works around Caterham, The Ridge, Woldingham, Chaldon and Whyteleafe. Around 12,609 households keep cars here, and the ones who take a monthly valeter keep them — same drive, same finish, year after year. That's not a lead list — that's a round, built once and kept gleaming.
| Job | Typical price |
|---|---|
| Mini valet / maintenance wash | £42–£55 |
| Full valet | £90–£126 |
| Interior-only valet | £45–£68 |
| Machine polish / stage-1 correction | £160–£270 |
| Ceramic coating | from £320 |
| Maintenance plan (monthly, per visit) | from £38 |
| Local going rates from our regional price model. The CR3 holder sets their own prices — we never touch the money. | |
What owning CR3 is actually worth
Put it the way you'd put it on the driveway: at local rates, three to eight full valets cover the whole year's fee — and a kept maintenance client compounds on top, year after year. Unlike a lead app, the second client doesn't cost you a penny more.
