    $25 (see receipt) for what ended up being same as $8 at local BP. Had to hunt down guy to towel dry. Now no full service. My bad for adding extras, however they say free tire shine and that's a lie. I ask manager in blue uniform,he just shrugged and laughed when I suggested I was paying more than full service at State St for less. Not happy and not returning. Caveat emptor.

    Dirty car after my wash

    If I could give 0 stars I would. Unless you support maltreatment of employees and like paying for services you're not going to get... I suggest you drive the extra 5 minutes down the road for a better wash. I paid $15 for the medium level wash and my car looks dirtier than it did when I went in (pics). I asked the young lady to come take a look and was told no re-wash's or refunds per their policy. Unhappy with this, I asked for the owners number and after dialing his number, she started crying - clearly a red flag for toxic management. I hung up as the last thing I wanted to do was upset her. He called me back and to my surprise - his concern wasn't about resolving a customer concern at all. It was clear from the tone in his voice that he wanted to reprimand the employee that gave me his number. When I refused to give him the employees name or hand her MY phone, he hung up on me. So here I am, out $15, dirty car and feeling like crap for making the young lady cry. The concern should NOT have been with the employee but with the crappy equipment they use to wash cars and the self-serving policy they have in place (that is no where written on signage). It's clear she was worried he would fire her and that's no way to treat an employee. Please don't go to this place. Will be reporting to the BBB

    This should really be for zero stars. It's my fault for not listening to the reviews but I guess you make bad decisions in a pinch. This car wash couldn't even get the bird poop off the windows. And your manager has no business being in customer service. I asked to speak to him after finding some curious marks on the side of my car that weren't there before, including a chip on a car handle. All on the same side. I wasn't yelling, I didn't even ask for anything. But he immediately began patronizing me saying that something must have hit the car door....okay...multiple times in different spots in a consecutive row over a foot long?? That is highly improbable. Then he said why don't you check the other cars and see if they have damage? Then he started walking around the car saying, "oh, is this from the car wash? Is that scratch from the car wash, too?" Excuse me. I didn't bring up any other scratches. Just the ones from the door. He was extremely rude to me. If he's that sure that there's no way that the damage could be from the car wash then you could at least be nice about it, especially if I'm not being hostile (annoyed maybe). He was extremely rude and patronizing. Stay far away from this place. There are better and friendlier places to wash your car. I'd go to a gas station before coming back here.

    large Crack in the glass... was NOT there before entering the car wash

    this is the worst carwash ever... after having long standing monthly memberships on 2 different cars. we took my 2022 jeep wrangler through the wash only to come out with a cracked windshield. after days of attempting to contact the owner, he basically told us to get lost and it's not his problem... Mr Collin fuller was the most unprofessional person ever! needless to say we have been told that in the past week a few other cars have come out with the same problem and were told the same thing.... we canceled our memberships immediately and are very disappointed in the way we were treated, especially by a local establishment.

    Door molding

    Wish I could give it zero stars. First the most expensive wash with towel dry doesn't clean the car. Next the wash ripped off my door molding....the guy towel drying my car says nothing (as if I won't notice) then the manager Juan laughs and points to the "we're not responsible" sign. TERRIBLE service. Terrible wash and now it's costing me more money.

    I went through fuller car wash In my brand new Jeep only the second time going through the car wash since I got it and it cracked my windshield went back around and told them what happened they said there was no managers at this location that could do anything but would have someone give me a call the next morning, never received a call, have called and left multiple voicemails and still nothing but a broken windshield!!

    Front bumper dirt

    I don't normally leave reviews for businesses but this one was bad enough to justify it. I purchased "the works" (a $17 option) anticipating that it would at least get my car clean but frankly that isn't the case. The entire rear end is dirty, the front bumper doesn't seem like it was cleaned whatsoever, and the wash failed to remove even the simplest of dirt splotches. The only thing that functioned even remotely well was the vacuum's, and even then they were sub-par. If you're looking for a good wash, this isn't the place.

    First, I'd like to start out that I never go to car washes because I hear horror stories. The end…read moreof January of this year, to get the salt off my car, somebody suggested I go to a car wash. I happen to be driving past Britain's car wash on 31. I pulled in, paid my money, went into the booth, the car was washed and I left. The minute I pulled out. I had static and no radio. I had no idea what was going on. Over the next few weeks everything else started to not work, my GPS, my phone, little things weren't working. I went to the dealership and they asked me immediately if I went to a car wash. The answer was yes. They said this is car wash damage. I went to Gerber collision and glass to have it repaired. After I called it into State farm. I knew exactly where and when it happened. Gerber also confirmed that it was 100% undeniably related to a car wash. The only car wash I went to was Britain's in Dundee. When I reached out, the owner told me without a doubt and without any uncertainty, it was impossible for his car wash to do that to my car. So my $10 car wash or whatever it was, turned out to be over $2,000. I have a $250 deductible that I had to pay. I know that it happened in that car Wash. I'm disappointed that he immediately threw his hands in the air and said couldn't have been us. That's impossible. It's possible and it happened. I didn't run all over calling car washes and accusing them. I had one car wash, at the britons in Dundee, and it damaged my car and my roof. I'm sure their car wash is great when it works, but I hope this doesn't happen to anybody else. What bothers me more is the attitude of it couldn't have happened here. It's impossible. Shame on that car wash, stuck me with a $2,000 claim on my insurance and at $250 deductible. Shame shame shame but I believe in karma.

    I used to have a monthly membership, the one time I went twice in one day, they declined me and…read moresaid I had to pay. That same day I cancelled my membership and was done with them. You can only come ones a day! They are NOT unlimited and false advertisement. Also, the rims do not get cleaned through their Carwash. But the Carwash on McClean for the same price leaves your rims super clean. I left this message on their Facebook page for others to be aware, and they disabled my commenting. Good job Brittain's car wash!

    Add the word WONDERFUL to Wash Werks! My car goes in their wash and every single time comes out…read moreshiny and looking wonderful! They have THE best state of the art car wash that no one can top! I've tried most of them out here and I'm so glad I have a reliable top notch place to get my car washed. Prices are same as other places but you get your moneys worth here! It's fast and easy service checking and paying with service members there to greet and help you all the time. Bill who runs the car wash is always there and doing quality control checks and super friendly guy to ask questions about the monthly wash programs! They spare nothing here! The soap they use is plentiful and you actually can smell the freshness in the car as it goes thru. The vacuums to clean inside the car are super suction and pick even the littlest stuff up! They have large trash containers too for you to get rid of trash. The place is kept meticulously clean and neat. I drive over 10 miles just to bring my newer car here. I'm at ease that Bill and his super crew will take good care of me but most importantly take care of making sure my car gets the best wash! Don't settle for a car wash using luke warm or cold water, diluted suds or no suds at all, inferior dirty washing parts or broken stages of the wash ie; tire scrub, hot wax machine. Thanks Wash Werks for keeping my cars looking great!

    Great experience. The attendant at the kiosk wasn't pushy with selling me the packages, but was…read moreinformative and answered the questions I did have. This was my first time here and I wanted to measure the quality before investing in a plan. I went with the Deluxe, which is fancy for "lowest tier", but I just wanted to get the salt off my car and undercarriage, which is part of the package. I was surprised to see that there was an attendant inside giving a little "pre-soak" from a hose to prime my car for the wash. Also, this wash doesn't have a tire track! It's literally a flat conveyor belt without any bumper or mound to push you along, which is great for those worried about scratching their rims. When I came out, I was pleased with the quality of wash, even at the lowest tier. There were a few residual spots, but nothing egregious and easily something that could have been remedied if I brought a towel for a quick wipe. Based on this experience, I will be back on a Sunday to get the full Ceramic Shield package and if that goes well, I'll consider a membership, as well as upgrading this review to 5 stars!
