ABOUT KARMAN
KARMAN is a family‑run valeting, detailing, smart repairs and alloy wheel refurbishment business proudly serving East Kent with both mobile and workshop‑based services. Whether we’re travelling to your home or workplace, or welcoming you into our dedicated studio, our focus is always the same — delivering exceptional results with honesty, care and attention to detail.
Our mobile van is fully equipped with an onboard pure‑water system, ensuring your vehicle receives a spotless finish, even on the hottest days! This allows us to provide a professional, studio‑quality service wherever you are.
At our workshop, we carry out a wide range of SMART repairs, customisation work, alloy wheel refurbishment and minor bodywork repairs. With high‑quality products, professional equipment and years of hands‑on experience, we’re able to restore, protect and enhance your vehicle to a standard we’re proud to put our name to.
We value long‑term relationships, not quick jobs. Every vehicle is treated with the same care and pride as if it were our own, and every customer receives a personal, honest, professional service from start to finish.
At KARMAN, it’s all about quality, trust and doing things properly — wherever your car needs us.
My Background
After spending more than two decades in the paper industry, I built a career defined by growth, leadership, and international experience. I founded two new businesses and went on to become the Commercial Director of what was, at the time, the largest independent paper merchant and converter in the United Kingdom—selling over 40,000 tonnes of paper and board each year. My role took me around the world, sourcing materials from China, Canada, Korea, Europe, Dubai, and India, giving me a deep understanding of quality, supply chains, and commercial negotiation.
Alongside that career, I always had a passion that never left me: cars. For years, I bought and sold vehicles as a hobby, and by 2010 I found myself increasingly drawn to performance models—Maserati, Porsche, BMW M cars, Mercedes‑AMG, Audi R8, TVR and more. Preparing these cars to a high standard became something I genuinely enjoyed, especially the detailing side.
In 2020, after leaving my full‑time role during the Covid period, I made the decision to turn that long‑standing passion into a full‑time career. That’s when I committed to taking KARMAN to a new level—combining decades of commercial experience with a genuine love for cars, quality, and customer service.
Today, everything I do at KARMAN is built on that foundation: professionalism, attention to detail, and a commitment to doing things properly.
