Clayton's Autocare

Premium mobile car care · Lambourn Valley

One thorough start.
Then it never slips.

Every price is on this page. A Premium Setup Wash brings the car to a standard worth keeping, and scheduled visits then hold it there, on the driveway, at whatever interval suits the car.

Why the first visit is different

Why the first visit costs more.

A car that has not been properly cleaned in a while cannot be maintained in an hour. The Setup Wash is a longer, deeper visit: decontamination, a thorough exterior, a full interior and a paint sealant. Its only job is to get the car to a baseline that short, regular visits can then hold.

That is why maintenance costs less than the first clean, and why it stays that way. Every subsequent visit starts from a car that was already clean a fortnight ago.

Prices by vehicle size

Four sizes, because a Fiesta and a Discovery are not the same job.

Find the closest match below. The size is confirmed from the make and model before anything is booked, and is never adjusted afterwards.

A Setup Wash on its own is the same £100 to £175 and is available across the round. Away from the regular villages a one-off visit is harder to place than a plan, so send the postcode and we will say either way.

The Setup Wash happens once. Everything after it is the per-visit price in the frequency column you choose. There is no joining fee, no travel charge and no difference in price between villages.

How often

The shorter the gap, the less each visit costs.

A week of dirt takes far less putting right than a month of it. That is why the price per visit goes up as the gap widens, and why most people settle on fortnightly.

Also available

Weekly

£30 to £48 a visit

The car is never anything but clean. A week's dirt comes off quickly, so this is the lowest price per visit. It is the most visits, not the most work each time.

Also available

Every three weeks

£40 to £63 a visit

A middle option for cars that do fewer miles or sit under cover, without letting things build up the way a full month can.

Also available

Monthly

£45 to £70 a visit

Four weeks of road film and interior use takes the longest to put right, so it is the highest price per visit. Best for low-mileage or garaged cars.

More than one car

Two or more at one address costs less.

There is no travel between two cars on the same driveway, so the second one costs less.

Staying on a plan

What you get for staying.

01

Your price is frozen

The maintenance price agreed at the start stays fixed for as long as you remain continuously on a plan. Prices for new customers can change; yours does not.

02

Free protection renewal at six months

After six continuous months on a plan, the paint sealant from your Setup Wash is reapplied free. It is roughly a £50 job, and six months is when the original coat is due.

03

Refer someone, get a free visit

Refer as many people as you like. Each one who joins a plan takes a maintenance visit off your next bill.

How you pay

Subscription or per visit, your choice.

Recurring card payment

Set up once through Stripe and the maintenance visits are paid automatically. This is the normal option because it removes the admin from both sides and keeps the schedule moving without a payment conversation every fortnight.

Pay per visit

Available and always has been. If you would rather settle each visit as it happens, say so when you book. It makes no difference to the price or the schedule.

No minimum term has been set. If one is ever introduced to protect a discounted Setup Wash price, it will be stated plainly before you agree to anything. No payment is taken through this website.

Where plans run

Built around the Lambourn Valley.

Core coverage is Lambourn, Eastbury and East Garston. Nearby villages and towns are accepted selectively, because a plan is only worth having if the visits actually happen on time.

Before you join

The questions people actually ask.

See every question
How does the maintenance plan actually work?+

The first visit is a Premium Setup Wash, which brings the vehicle to a clean, protected baseline. After that, we return weekly, fortnightly, every three weeks or monthly to hold that standard, on the driveway. The frequency and the price are agreed before the first visit, and there is no fixed term.

How much does it cost?+

A Premium Setup Wash is £100 for a small car, £120 medium, £145 large and £175 for an XL vehicle, 4x4 or van. Maintenance runs from £30 a visit weekly up to £70 a visit monthly, depending on the size of the car and how often it is done. The exact tier is confirmed from the make and model before booking.

Why is monthly more expensive per visit than fortnightly?+

Four weeks of road film, mud and interior use takes longer to deal with than two. The fortnightly price is lower per visit because the car never gets far from the standard it was left at.

Do I have to pay by subscription?+

No. A recurring card payment is offered first because it removes the admin for both sides, but paying per visit is available and always has been. Nothing is taken through this website either way.

Is there a minimum term?+

No. Stop whenever you like. If that ever changes it will be said plainly before you agree to anything, and never applied to an existing plan.

Can I have more than one car on a plan?+

Yes, and it is cheaper. Two cars done at the same address on the same visit receive 10% off; three or more receive 20% off. The saving is real because there is no travel between them.

Is there anything you do not offer?+

Odour treatment, because it needs equipment we do not have yet. Everything else on the add-on list is available now: glass sealant, pet hair removal, stain and spill removal, leather cleaning and conditioning, fabric protection, headlight restoration, engine bay cleaning and winter protection.
