You Can Wash at Home — But Not All Year

Čiekurkalns differs from its neighbours in having a lot of private houses with their own yards. In summer a hose and a bucket genuinely do the job. The trouble starts in October: cold water will not lift the dirt, salt stays in the arches, and below freezing washing in the yard stops altogether.

Winter is exactly when a car needs washing most. Road salt collects under the sills, in the wheel arches and along the underside — the places a hose cannot reach and where corrosion starts first. We work indoors with warm water all year round.

The other thing a yard cannot do is a deep interior clean or a paint polish. Those need an extraction machine, drying and controlled lighting — not a sponge and soap.

Common questions

Questions From Čiekurkalns Customers

Do you have a car wash in Čiekurkalns?

No. We have one workshop, at Brīvības gatve 246 in neighbouring Teika, directly across Brīvības gatve from Čiekurkalns.

Is it even worth washing a car in winter?

Yes — more so than in summer. Road salt sits in the arches and under the sills and holds moisture against the metal, which is where corrosion begins. What matters is flushing those places out, not just rinsing the surface.

I wash the car myself in the yard. Why drive to you?

In summer, possibly no reason at all — and that is the honest answer. The difference shows in winter, when cold water will not lift the dirt, and when you need a deep interior clean or a polish, which no hose can do.

Do I need to book?

Not necessarily. Calling +371 20 168 680 will tell you the current wait.

Yard washing not an option any more?

Come across Brīvības gatve — we wash indoors all year round.
