All good for a quick wash, only caveat being the drying isn't too good, so you have to park and dry it properly yourself. Also, the vacuum is not strong enough to actually clean properly in the 3mins... See more

Convenient for a quick wash

All good for a quick wash, only caveat being the drying isn't too good, so you have to park and dry it properly yourself.
Also, the vacuum is not strong enough to actually clean properly in the 3mins per £1.

Outstanding place to wash car and helpful staff

Went to this car wash and met this fabulous lovely guy who is the assistant manager- Emil, he was extremely helpful and kind, he made sure my car was very clean even though I had only paid for a self service, he still assisted in cleaning the car immaculately.
Emil is the best and a great cleaner. I left so happy and he brightened my day with his kindness. Thank you so much Emil

First and last time using these guys

First time I've used the Northfleet one. Only one guy there and he kept stopping to wash others instead of starting/completing my one? Definitely won't be back if this is the service you get!
I'd be surprised if anyone uses it twice!

Unprofessional and careless

They broke the antenna of my car and blamed me for not seeing the tiny writing saying "remove all peripherals" at the bottom of the price list bollard. Absolute bellends. If you value your car, avoid at all costs.
They purposely forget to speak English when you have damage but when they're describing the prices they turn into bloody Shakespeare.
They didn't even offer to reimburse me for the wash, let alone the antenna damage. Emailed the managers, they said fill in a report at the wash. Go back to the wash, "the boss isn't khere."
Also, the water always stinks, the wash doesn't clean anything and leaves the car with stains you have to rub off afterwards.
Bad service, avoid.

Northfleet IMO are rude.

Northfleet IMO - very rude, asked for one wash and told to pay extra for foam but given one below what I asked for. When I pointed this out Alie was rude to the point of saying go somewhere else next time. Avoid as the customer service is poor.
