Car Wash

1. Prevents Damage: It’s Alberta. There is no shortage of snow, rain, road debris including mud, dirt, dust, rocks, etc. in this province and St Albert and surrounding area are no exception! In wintertime, even salt and sand are known to attach themselves to your car’s exterior let alone what is tracked inside by boots and shoes. These minerals and natural materials over time if allowed to persist on your vehicle’s surfaces can cause damage leading to scratches and even rust. This is why regularly washing your vehicle (weekly if possible, bi-weekly at least)) serves as a preventative measure against such damage. Alpine Auto Wash has the proper water pressure and temperature needed to maintain your vehicle’s exterior!
2. Maintains Condition: The soap and hot water used at reputable car wash facilities serve to remove ( as previously mentioned) impurities that lead to damage. This adds to the longevity of your vehicle so you have many more kilometres to go in the days, weeks, months, and years ahead!
3. Safety: Streets and roadways in St Albert and Edmonton pose hazards with heavy traffic flows, multiple lanes, and inclement weather making things ‘interesting’ to say the least. Winter months come with much shorter daylight hours making visibility a challenge. A regular wash keeps the windshield, windows, mirrors, and headlamps clear and it also removes ice buildup from wheel wells and the undercarriage which aid the visibility of both you as the driver and those you share the road with.
4. Improves Value: Selling? Trading? You want to get the best dollar for the vehicle you’ve invested in. Investing in the maintenance of your vehicle involves more than just the mechanical, electrical, and software components of your ride. Keeping your car clean, inside and out, enhances its value and has been known to increase its resale value. Regular washing and detailing is essential towards that end.
5.  Image: What does a filthy car say about its owner? Well, you get the point right? If your vehicle is dirty all the time it gives the impression that you don’t care and this may lead to others concluding that your vehicle may not be mechanically sound (unsafe). You don’t have to have a fancy and expensive sports car to portray a good image on the highway. A clean, well-maintained vehicle has been shown to improve a driver’s attitude and boost self-image. Studies have revealed that being surrounded by clutter and filth can negatively affect mental health increasing stress levels. We certainly don’t need more stressed-out drivers on our roadways! Treat your vehicle as an extension of your home or office! This will give you a new perspective on the value of having a clean interior.
