Every year, the number of cars on Ukrainian roads is constantly increasing. This means that vehicles require special care and maintenance. That is why car washes are very popular with car owners. Since this business is quite interesting and promising, the need to build car washes is quite natural and obvious.

Car wash construction solutions

The construction process involves taking into account some nuances, the list of which includes the availability of permits and the search for a profitable construction site where the maximum number of customers would be constantly. No less important will be the emphasis on the availability of necessary communications, since the operation of the car wash involves drainage, water supply, the availability of electricity, etc.

In addition, the process of building construction itself involves ensuring a stylish appearance, compliance with sanitary and environmental standards and the desire to save the maximum amount of money for construction.

Another important emphasis on which pricing directly depends is the choice of basic materials. Classic options in the form of wall blocks or reinforced concrete slabs have not been used so often recently. More optimal options for modern owners are the following:

• Frame car washes - they provide a short period of installation work due to the absence of a complex foundation, and also have relatively low costs compared to capital construction. Metal profiles with a certain thickness are most often used. Galvanized corrugated board with a polymer coating can be used for wall cladding. Thanks to this, the material is not subject to corrosion and lasts quite a long time. At the same time, the profiled sheet does not retain heat well, which necessitates additional insulation.
• Car washes made of sandwich panels. Externally, this material is similar to a profiled sheet in terms of technical characteristics. However, it has an internal insulation made of mineral wool, expanded polystyrene or polyurethane foam. Thus, this material allows you to get ready-made wall panels that can provide thermal efficiency equivalent to that of a cinder block. The main advantages of sandwich panels are a stylish appearance, long service life, extremely fast installation and dismantling if necessary.

How much does it cost to build a self-service car wash?

Self-service car wash is a format that has been gaining popularity in recent years. Most often, such buildings are built of metal structures. In addition, the construction process involves the installation of a concrete slab, which can be equipped with a heated floor and supplemented with a water sump. The approximate cost of such a concrete monolith can be within 24-31 thousand euros. The price of metal structures is calculated in square meters, taking into account the size of the facility. For each individual project, the cost will be individual, since the number of car wash points and the specifics of the equipment to be installed in the future are taken into account during planning.
