Safely Performing Car Wash Repairs


Repairs and maintenance come with the territory for car wash owners. Even the best equipment will require regular maintenance to extend the life of the product. Eventually, things break down, and you need to decide whether to repair it or replace it. In the meantime, you want to perform maintenance and repairs safely. Here are a few essential things to remember.


Keep Maintenance Regular

Consistency in your maintenance program will help you to extend the life of your car wash equipment and will reduce the need for repairs or costly replacement. You should have a schedule in place for your employees to handle routine maintenance.


Proper Training for Employees

Proper training for your employees is essential for two reasons. First, when your employees are properly trained, they will understand the importance of maintenance and won’t be tempted to skip items on the to-do list that require their attention.

Second, your employees will know how to perform routine maintenance. This will help them to tackle projects with confidence. It will also help your employees to be safe while handling these day-to-day activities. Without proper training, even a simple task could result in an injury to your worker or in damage to your expensive equipment. So proper training is a wise investment.


Hire a Professional

When it comes time to actually repair or replace equipment, the smart choice is to hire a professional to perform the work. Someone who is not properly trained may experience an injury or could damage the equipment while trying to perform the repairs or installation. It is far better to have the work performed correctly the first time and without incident.


Installing the Right Equipment the First Time

You can minimize the cost of future repairs and replacement by using the best quality equipment when you initially build your car wash. With the proper upkeep, modern equipment will last for years to come and will be an essential part of a profit-earning business rather than a drain on your revenue. Remember that downtime is rough on your customer retention. If your clients go somewhere else while your car wash is temporarily out of order, they may have a good experience and decide not to return when you are open again.
