We are a family-owned business with family values that started our operation 25 years ago because our owner could not find a high-quality carwash to wash his car in South Bend Indiana. Over the last 25 years, we have grown to be one of the most sophisticated chains of car care centers in the country, where we offer car washing, quick lubes, interior cleaning, and detailing of vehicles in a family-oriented environment where our customers have rated us THE BEST 25 years in a row. Our people are our #1 priority and the most important leg of our strategy. We strive to hire, train, and promote happy and motivated people on our team who share the same values we do.
The technologies, equipment & processes we deploy are at the forefront of existence within our industry. We design and manufacture most of the equipment that we use in our buildings. The level of investment we make in our staff, operations, and facilities are amongst the highest in our industry, and we are visibly the best at what we do.
Our mission is very simple “we wow customers one at a time”! To do that, we invest heavily in people training & development. Hearing comments such as “you helped shape my life” from our associates are common.
