HISTORY

 

In 2000 Richard Oakes Sr. and his family moved to the City of Fresno from Northern CA while working for another car wash distributor. A year later, the company decided to leave the area and Richard Oakes Sr. and his son Richard Oakes Jr. formed their company Richard Oakes and Son Inc in 2001.

 

Richard Sr. had over 40 years of experience at the time of starting the new company and knew he could help car wash owners in the area. Richard Oakes & Son Inc. realized that in order to compete in today’s market, you the customer, must have a competent company that will look after your needs. With more then 40 years combined of experience we started our company knowing that the most important part in car washing is great service. This is what our company stands by.

 

In 2016 Richard Oakes Sr. left this world in peace and with immense faith of having his son and daughter in law take the lead in his path in the car washing industry. Richard Oakes Jr. now with over 25 years of experience is trusted by many to help in their car washing adventures.
