DetailXPerts was created in 2002 by Emmanuel Williams, after his son observed that cars could be washed with steam. After this thought, Williams, an engineer, began developing the idea and experimenting with steam cleaning. 

DetailXPerts believes it is a sustainable steam car dealer that provides satisfaction by saving water during car washes for thousands of customers. It may use green products, and utilize the process of steam cleaning. DetailXPerts is eco-friendly and preserves natural resources. 

DetailXPerts' main goal and commitment is to provide good car conditions to customers while adopting eco-friendly steam cleaning, helping nature, and saving its resources. DetailXPerts may offer professional detailing services for all kinds of vehicles, including automobiles, aircrafts, boats, buses, motorcycles, RVs, trucks, and vans. It also offers dealership services, fleet services, hand car wash, interior detailing, ultimate eco wash, commercial cleaning services, and more.

Why You May Want To Start a DetailXPerts Franchise

DetailXPerts focuses on the planet and people by implementing new sustainable technology. The company provides training to its franchisees. DetailXPerts franchisees should have a business and growth mentality, enjoy dealing with vehicles in general, and be eco-friendly.

If awarded a franchise, franchisees may receive a great deal of support from the DetailXPerts brand throughout the franchising process. In addition to pre-opening training, franchisees receive support through brand awareness, marketing, research, and construction. They also receive hands-on training and continued support after their franchise location has opened.

What Might Make a DetailXPerts Franchise a Good Choice?

Washing one vehicle may take 30 or more gallons of water, while steam cleaning could only use two gallons of water to wash several cars. Owning a DetailXPerts franchise may allow for flexibility and mobility, as franchisees can manage their DetailXPerts franchise from anywhere.

Opening a DetailXPerts franchise could offer a more predictable outcome than investing in a completely new brand that may struggle to thrive in an already crowded and competitive industry.

As you decide if opening a DetailXPerts franchise is the right move for you, make sure you take time to explore the opportunity. Research the brand and your local area to see if a DetailXPerts franchise would do well in your community. While competition is healthy, too much of it may not allow for the most possible growth.

How To Open a DetailXPerts Franchise

Before making any financial commitment or signing an agreement, you must perform your due diligence and establish if this is the right opportunity for you. As part of your due diligence, you may want to speak to existing franchisees and ask the DetailXPerts franchising team questions. 

To be part of the DetailXPerts team, you should make sure you're financially ready for an initial investment made up of a franchise fee and other startup costs. In addition, you should prepare yourself for ongoing fees that will include advertising, royalty, and potential renewal fees. Franchisees will also need to meet the company's set net worth and liquid capital requirements.
