Car Washing by Chris is an independent car valeting company based in Cheshire. They are owned by Christopher Corcoran a 16 year old school boy and entrepreneur. Christopher founded the company a few years ago, aged just 13,  whilst on his schools Summer holiday. "I was finding that I was just sitting around at home getting bored" he said, "I wanted something to occupy me, it was an added bonus if it made me some money!" Christopher set up hoping that he could make himself a little extra pocket money, he had no idea how popoular his services would be. "I remember that feeling when I landed my first customer" he explains to me, "I felt so proud." Since then Christopher has built up a loyal and still growing customer base, often working to absolute capacity.

 

Due to the fact that Christopher is only 16 and still at school he is able to provide a great quality valet at an incredible price. I asked one of his regular customers what they thought of Chris and his services, they replied, "I have been using Chris for coming on a year now, He is professional and represents outstanding value for money. He valets our two cars once a month for £40, and that includes a polish!" 

 

Some people are put off using Christopher when they find out his age. "Well yes, I am quite young," was his response, "but some people are obviously willing to let me prove myself to them or I wouldn't have any customers! I am just as capable as any adult and all of my customers know that, why else would they return again and again?" 

 

Christopher is always keen to expand his customer base and restore more cars to their former glory, and I can assure you he does a great job!
