Our Take

The full valet consistently returns cars to a showroom-like finish, with multiple reviewers noting that even heavily aged or neglected paintwork is restored to a deep, blemish-free gloss. The main drawback is the waiting list, as Ken is in high demand and bookings often need to be made several weeks in advance.

Please be aware. Search on Facebook for " Wiltshire car valeting " This will have pictures of all his latest car, 4x4, vans, funeral vehicles, classic cars, sports and luxury vehicles. Ken is a very knowledgeable, and helpful individual, nothing is to much trouble. My wife is very happy dealing with him, and organising the work to be carried out. I am always pleased by his work, which is above many in the industry, l use to be part of. A keen and critical eye for anything that is returned to his customer. I strongly advise that you book your car in 4 to 5 weeks before hand, as he has his loyal customers base, that keep him busy. There is a lovely customer car available to you, this helps out alot. Especially this time around. This Time l had my 5yr old Honda CR-V Deep cleaned and compond paint, before sealing paint, then waxing along with other bits. It took till 10am on the third day, which was very fast and well managed. The abused paint work was dirty to the microscopic level, a jet and car wash really did not touch it. Ken has managed to give my car a fresh face and all the material finishes have a deep glow, it just didn't have. Everything looked dry and sun baked. Now all that is left is for me to book in my early summer wash and wax, then seal and wax top up for winter. If your car is important to you, and you want to keep it looking tidy, Ken's company has proved itself over many years to be the best value and flexible to your needs. I would also like to add Ken was the only person l could find to do this for me... Like all sealants applied to any paint, you have to do it right before building up on it. This is a lot of work, and difficult to get done, but is a must. From this point it should not need to be bone. Snow foam 2 bucket method, clay bar and mopping, sealed paint & wheels, after over night buffed and waxed. Final picture is finished results. It now glows, plus it is sealed for 6 to 12 months.

Wow, wow, wow. We took our 07 Range Rover to Ken asking him to do what he could with the scratched and honestly neglected bodywork. The results are truly awesome. It looks as though we have just driven it out of the showroom. He got some nasty scratches out and bought the bodywork back to life. My wife seriously hugged him as she was totally blown away by the results. As for value for money, you can’t beat Ken. My wife suggested he get a sticker made up that says “your body can look as good as mine……go to Ken’s Cars Ltd in Melksham”. No good if you want the job done quickly as he has a waiting list, but the attention to detail and results and so worth the wait. Thank you Ken. We are very happy customers who would have no hesitation in recommending you.

Ken has done a brilliant job in bringing my 10 year old Merc’ 220D estate back to showroom condition. Cannot fault his attention to detail and hard work, inside and out. A job really well done and great value as well. Would recommend without hesitation.

This is my 2nd visit to Ken and again he’s done a great job, my car came back to me gleaming/looking like new, I’m so pleased and I’m already booked in for my next visit. I would highly recommend him he takes his time and a pride in what he does.

In today's world sadly you often don't get what you pay for. That is absolutely not the case with Ken's Car valet service. He turned an off white and green moss tinged car with various shades of upholstery into a gleaming white car, of showroom quality. Worth every pound and with a really personable service as well.

Brilliant valeting by Ken. Excellent professional service. So pleased with my Fiesta. Looks as good as new and the best way to maintain the look and finish of my car over the years. Highly recommend!

Quite simply the best car valeting service available. ( I know quite a few having worked for Mercedes).Ken saved a 10 year old car which the insurance company wanted to scrap following accident when a Builder sprayed the car with expanding foam. Attention to detail first class. The car on collection literally looked as good as 10 years ago when we collected it from the dealer. Thank you Ken for saving a valued heirloom. Kevin

Absolutely first class service always and I wouldn't go anywhere else. I was told about Ken a few years ago and used him to do a full valet on my everyday car. It was 'bang on' in every respect and such a decent guy to deal with. Since then he has valeted my wife's car, my son's Audi A5 convertible ( his pride and joy ) and my everday car. Ken also looks after a 1933 vintage Rolls-Royce I have that was recently waxed and prepared by him and, as a result of his attention to detail, it won the Most Elegant Rolls-Royce at the RREC rally out of 235 plus cars.........Thank you Ken.

On behalf of my father “I have owned my Porsche Boxster for twenty years now and the car was looking tired, I took it to Ken for its twentieth anniversary. He has worked his magic and the car has come back to me like the first day I picked it up . Just an amazing job and was great value for money , can’t fault his work.

I was fortunate enough to see the high standard of Ken's work when my wife bought a car which he had been prepared, ready for its collection (a matte paint). The level of detail and passion that Ken gives to the customers car, goes beyond any I've witnessed with previous professional valeting companies who have charged me far more in the past. As a result and all though not local to me, I decided to use Ken to for some paint correction on my own car, where the Porsche dealership had washed the car post a service and caused ugly swirl marks in the paint. The results were simply stunning, a glass like finish to the paint with an amazing blemish free crystal reflection, I couldn't have been any more impressed and pleased, the 110 mile trip was worth every penny and I’ll only be using Ken in the future. To add; I’m an extremely passionate car owner, who takes care of his cars, if you want your car to be left in the hands of someone who will treat your car like their own and deliver the service at levels beyond expectations, Ken is most certainly the right person to use and trust.
