Valeters in SUnderland area - Blue {P}

Can anyone recommend agood valeting firm in the Sunderland area?

This is the first car I've owned that is in need of a professional valet, carpets, seats etc. all need shampooing, but I know some are better at it than others, so any recommendations appreciated!

I live in Sunderland but cannot recommend anyone as I clean my own cars. However I would suggest, from experience, that rather than having the car interior shampooed you should use a steam cleaner. Mine pushes the steam out onto a terry towelling pad which soaks the dirt out.
With a shampoo, soap residues are left in the materials which then attract dirt again quite quickly.

Thanks for the reply, normally I would do this myself, and we do have a steamer, but I don't think I would have any luck, I don't think I use it properly, the car has 11 years worth of general use on the seats, it's quite ground in by now!
