Thank you Fletch

Thank you Fletch. Recently bought a car with PPF, so had no idea what products to use on it, or how to properly maintain the car going forward.

Flectch patiently took me through all the various products - steering me in then right direction. he then took the trouble to write me a simple guide on how to wash and maintain the car.

Excellent and professional service. My 'go to' shop for advice and the right products

New for old

I found out that my 1 year old car - bought 6 months ago - had not had any dealership finishing done. Tony asked about the cars usage and how long I might keep it and recommended a full clean and ceramic coating. Now it looks better than new bringing out the pearlescent colour and shine. Richard L

Great service from start to finish. Tony managed to do a complete valet and de-mould of a convertible second hand Mini at no notice for a car that was bought as a birthday present which didn’t look or smell like new but now does! Would highly recommend Tony for doing such a thorough job

Awesome service as always

Think I’ve used Bear’s detailing 4-5 times now for ceramic coating to full PPF. I don’t really need to say anything else, using them time and time again shows I’m more than impressed and happy with the work. But to add to the high level of work, you can add they’re friendly, helpful and just all round pleasure to deal with. Can’t say a bad word about them, and now with added shop I can order products I need to maintain my cars.

Excellent job again from the team

Excellent job again from Tony and Fletch on our VW California. Not only do they do an excellent job on the paintwork (and all the way through the interior) but also super easy to deal with and really pleasant guys. Very happy again with the service.

Highly recommended

Highly recommended! Have used Tony for numerous years and it’s my first port of call when I pick up my new car. Supreme knowledge and attention to detail make his work second to none. Always goes the extra mile to deliver a fantastic job. Cars always come back looking like they’ve come from the showroom. Would highly recommend.

Blimey…so good!

Blimey, they must have replaced the whole car!!??? My once beautiful Volvo has been used and abused by myself and my 2 black labs, mud, hair, crumbs from kids and camping expeditions. It is now perfect with no dog smell and no over powering chemical smells either, how did they do that? I TOTALLY recommend 🥰

Superb Service!


Quality of work is exceptional and customer service provided by Tony and team is top notch!

This was a return visit for me, as I had some detail work done by Tony a couple of years ago - good service really does encourage return custom.

This time I had work complete on 2 cars and the team once again didn’t disappoint.
My Mini bodywork looks like glass. And the roof restore exceeded my expectations.

Super friendly team, great engagement and amazing quality service! I will be back 😊

Thanks Kelly, really appreciate you coming back to us and for the lovely feedback. It means a lot when customers return as it’s the best kind of compliment. The Mini came up beautifully and we’re so pleased the roof restore went beyond what you were expecting. Always great seeing you and we’ll look forward to next time!
Best,

A MUST for any new car!

I took my new car to Tony in early September to have a new car detail done. It included a full detail, wheel coating, interior protection pack, glass rain repellent, and Gyeon Infinite Topcoat. I also opted to have PPF on the B and C pillars.

I wanted to wait a few months so I could give an honest review not just of his work on the day, but how the work is holding up after a few months and a few washes too.

Here's my verdict - it's incredible.

Tony's initial work was beyond superb. When he charges you for a detail, he REALLY means detail. Every single nook and cranny, every single little hole, crevice, join, and panel was meticulously cleaned and left better than new (seriously, the "detail" I got on pickup from the dealer was shoddy at best and damaging at worst).

Better yet, he was so thorough he even found some rather nasty holes left by the dealer on attaching my rear license plate. I'd have never known they were there without him, and am able to get it fixed under warranty rather than waiting for my boot to rust from the inside out in 5 years.

The coatings work great, easily halving the time it takes to wash and clean the car. Dirt comes off effortlessly, and brake residue (often the hardest to clean) is a breeze to rinse off.

The rain repellent really works! Even 3 months down the line and 4,000 miles driven, I'm still seeing the rain bead upwards on the windscreen!

The interior was spotless, with every bit of cat hair that had managed to get into the car over the 6 weeks from pickup to detail was removed. Honestly I couldn't find a single strand when he was done.

Overall, Tony is polite, professional, and clearly cares for his craft. He puts the time and effort in to showing the love and care for your car the way you would want him to, and you can tell how proud of his work he is when he shows you the finished product. He charges very reasonable prices for his work and it's worth every penny.

My car will be going back regularly for cleaning and maintenance! If you have a new car, factor in the additional cost of a detail and give it to Tony. You seriously will not regret it!
