So much more than a car cleaning company.
The experience is only ever as good as the person on your driveway. So we back great local pros — and treat every job like our name's on it.
Local pros deliver the best experience
Skilled people who care about their reputation in the communities they serve.
Belonging and support really matter
Independents do their best work when they have somewhere to belong, with real backing behind them.
It’s service, not just bookings
Great tech helps, but quality comes from people, standards and support.
“I was a part-time detailer when I joined Washdoctors, and after three months I went full time. The investment in my growth from Washdoctors has been unmatched.”

Our story
From a bike, a backpack, and an idea
Wash Doctors didn't start in a boardroom. It started on a bike, on the streets of London — with one founder who couldn't stop noticing dirty cars.
Spotted on a Deliveroo round
Delivering food across London, Will kept clocking the same thing: cars everywhere, caked in city grime. If dinner can come to your door, why not car care?
A Tinder date and a lightbulb
A chat about waterless wash tech on a Tinder date cracked it. The next morning, Will taught himself to code and started building.
A bike, a backpack, a launch
London's first waterless car-wash app went live. Will was coder, CEO, support and washer, running the whole thing out of a backpack and washing car for £3.
Off the bike, into the office
The waterless backpack round grew up into a full mobile service, reaching more drivers, in more places, every week and the team grew.
The 'Deliveroo of car care'
On-demand convenience for customers; more bookings and better tools for the pros. The model clicked.
Relaunching as a marketplace for local pros
Staying true to every start-up journey, Wash Doctors pivoted from a waterless-only platform to embracing local independent technicians — becoming a marketplace offering more services across more locations.
Earning trust, raising the bar
Reviews, feedback and proper quality control became the heartbeat of the business the same finish, every single time.
Beyond the wash
Detailing and smart repairs joined the line-up, from a quick clean to making a tired car look properly cared for.
Backing the pros with our Academy
The Wash Doctors Academy launched to train and support independent valeters and detailers, helping good people build great businesses.
A car-care platform
Trusted mobile valeters, detailers and smart-repair pros, making car care as easy as ordering dinner. We are on a mission to do right by the local entrepreneurs who crave the support to compete in an ever evolving digital market and give our customer the car care they could only dream off.

How we ensure our standards
What Washdoctors does to ensure standards

01 — Vetting
Every job, every pro

Clear standards
Hygiene, care protocols, and job-quality expectations that partners agree to right from the offset and a training academy to support them.
03 — Oversight
Every job, every pro
Customer oversight
Transparent communication, photo proof of work, and an easy way to raise issues with our human support team. With customers questions answered on average in less than 10 minutes.
