After fire, detailing business has new home

SANFORD, N.C. — Friend and community support led the Gibsons to their new and improved location.

SANFORD, N.C. — Kelly and Terrie Gibson have a new location for their detailing business after a fire destroyed their first location, according to the Sanford Herald.

Because of the fire, Kelly’s Clean Cars has been operating out of a truck with limited supplies and equipment, said the article.

The business now has a new and improved location with more space, noted the article. The new location has its own bathrooms and heat, which the previous location lacked.

In the article, Kelly Gibson said friends and customers were helpful in getting his business into the new 1,200-square-foot space, and he said they haven’t lost any business since moving into the building.

The business had four appointments its first day back, stated the article.

The Gibsons are grateful to their community for helping them rebuild after the fire, reported the article.

Reaching new reclaim heights

There is a lot of variety in the carwash industry. Not only are there different types of washes, but the design, equipment, chemistry, staffing and service can greatly vary from one site to the next. However, there’s one non-negotiable constant in every wash: Water.

Since water — and lots of it — is so essential to this industry, it only makes sense to strive for ways to maximize every single drop. That’s where the reclaim process comes in. Collecting, rehabilitating and reusing as much water as possible is essential to protect the environment, the availability of resources and a carwash’s bottom line. That’s why industry leaders are currently driving innovation to find ways to reclaim even more water than ever.
