Valeting in Cold Ash & Hermitage: 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. The middle of Cold Ash parks on the street and its estates park on drives — two different jobs, ten minutes apart. A single summer show-and-shine job done beautifully in the middle of Cold Ash outperforms a year of adverts. About 278 households moved in the latest recorded year — enough turnover to keep a client book topped up without ever destabilising it.
The parking. Only market day complicates the centre of Cold Ash; the estates and the villages never complicate anything. The natural pattern: centre jobs early, estate drives through the day, one village run to finish. Hard-water territory — what the regional supply leaves behind as it dries is the valeter's oldest enemy, and the filtered final rinse is the professional answer customers here learn to ask about.
The round. The RG18 round works around Cold Ash, Hermitage, Hampstead Norreys, Longlane and Frilsham. Around 7,541 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 |

| 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 RG18 holder sets their own prices — we never touch the money. | |
What owning RG18 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.
