Washing a motorhome help ?.....NE Essex

My elderly Mother-in-law has a motorhome,located in North East Essex,and has tried and failed for years to find somewhere to get it washed (especially the roof)
Any recommendations ? Cheers "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

If I were you I'd find a local haulage company or bus company and ask if you can run it through their wash.

Maybe slip a few beer tokens someones way Thumbs Up Lee

With all this time you have to go galavanting around the Lakes, you could always stick a set of step laders in the back of the Disco and head down and clean it for her Whistle There is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes.

That mobile valeting service looks good...
the disaster cleaning might come in handy Whistle

Just spoke to Paul......unfortunately its a bit of a hike for him,and as its just an exterior wash,and not a full valet,he reckoned it would be a bit expensive.....
I didn't consider someone would do mobile motorhome valeting so the search will continue....thanks for the suggestions Thumbs Up "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...
