Never used this car wash before - so hadn’t got a clue. Could have had some more information displayed, but I worked out what I was doing and the attendant was brilliant.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

8 out of 10 times the car is clean but more importantly it’s how customer service handle the 2 other times. I have had a good experience with the latter

Easy process of getting the car washed after loading the app on my iPhone and buying a particular wash for the car. The attendant was polite and helpful.

IMO Wakefield is a great service

IMO Wakefield is a great service, they pre wash the car before the wash cycle begins making sure that under the rear air breaker is clean.
The ceramic clean although expensive leaves the car gleaming. My only criticism is the wipe clean at the end, doesn't take all the water marks away. Other than that I would highly recommend this business.

Disappointing service and disrespectful staff

I would not recommend this car wash. The quality of the service was disappointing, and the worker was unprofessional and disrespectful. Customer service is just as important as the quality of the wash, and unfortunately my experience did not meet even basic expectations. I hope they improve their staff's attitude and treat customers with more respect in the future.
