Full Valet Price: What Does It Cost & What's Included?
21 September 2026

So, you're considering a full valet for your car, and naturally, one of the first questions on your mind is, "What's the price?" It's a fair question, and one we get asked a lot. At SW Mobile Car Valeting, we believe in transparency, and while our full valet is a comprehensive service, the price reflects the time, effort, and professional products we put into restoring your vehicle to its best.
What Influences a Full Valet Price?
Before diving into the numbers, it's helpful to understand what factors can affect the price of a full valet. For us, it primarily comes down to the size of your vehicle and its current condition. A smaller car naturally takes less time and product than a large SUV or a particularly neglected vehicle. That's why you'll see a range of prices for our Full Valet packages.
Another key factor for us is the convenience we offer. Unlike a fixed-location car wash, we come to you, whether you're at home or work in Cardiff, Bridgend, Penarth, Barry, Cowbridge, Llantwit Major, or any of our covered CF postcodes. We're fully self-sufficient with our own water and power, meaning you don't lift a finger. This premium, hassle-free service is built into our pricing structure.
Our Full Valet Packages & What's Included
Our Full Valet is designed to be a thorough top-to-bottom restoration of your vehicle, both inside and out. It's more than just a clean; it's about rejuvenating your car's appearance and feel. Here's a general overview of what you can expect, though specific details can vary slightly between packages:
- Exterior Deep Clean: This goes beyond a basic wash. We perform a multi-stage wash process, including pre-washing, snow foam application, hand washing, and intricate cleaning of wheels, arches, and door shuts. We also apply a durable protective sealant to enhance shine and protect the paintwork.
- Interior Deep Clean: This is where the magic really happens inside. We vacuum the entire interior thoroughly, including the boot. All interior surfaces – dashboard, door panels, console – are cleaned, sanitised, and dressed. Carpets and upholstery receive a deep clean, often with wet extraction, to remove ingrained dirt and stains. Leather is cleaned and conditioned. Windows are polished for crystal-clear vision.
- Attention to Detail: We don't miss the small things. This includes tyre dressing, exterior trim restoration, and often air freshening to leave your car smelling as good as it looks.
Full Valet Pricing at SW Mobile Car Valeting
We offer several Full Valet options to cater to different vehicle sizes and levels of required attention. Here are our transparent prices, helping you understand the investment:
- Full Valet £105.00 (~150 mins)
- Full Valet £119.00 (~180 mins)
- Full Valet £170.00 (~270 mins)
- Full Valet £350.00 (~480 mins)
As you can see, the price increases with the time allocated, which generally correlates with vehicle size and the intensity of the cleaning required. The longer the service, the more time we have to dedicate to intricate details and deeper cleaning processes, especially for larger vehicles or those in need of more extensive restoration.

What's the difference between a Mini Valet and a Full Valet?
A Mini Valet focuses on a good clean of both the exterior and a refresh of the interior. A Full Valet is a much more extensive, deep clean of the entire vehicle, tackling ingrained dirt, stains, and providing more thorough protection and detailing for both inside and out.
How long does a Full Valet take with SW Mobile Car Valeting?
The duration of a Full Valet varies depending on the package you choose and the size/condition of your vehicle. Our Full Valet services range from approximately 150 minutes (2.5 hours) to a comprehensive 480 minutes (8 hours) for the most intensive option. We always aim for thoroughness over speed.
Do I need to provide water or electricity for a Full Valet at my home or workplace?
No, absolutely not! SW Mobile Car Valeting is fully self-sufficient. We bring all our own equipment, including water and power, so you don't need to worry about anything. Just tell us where your car is, and we'll handle the rest.
Are the prices for a Full Valet fixed, or do they vary by location in South Wales?
Our Full Valet prices are fixed for the specific packages regardless of your location within our covered service areas across South Wales, including Cardiff, Bridgend, Penarth, and surrounding districts. The price will only vary based on the specific Full Valet package chosen and the size of your vehicle. We operate across a wide range of CF postcodes.
