Splash Car Wash, headquartered in Milford, CT, has opened its 41st New York location, an express wash located in the Syracuse suburb of Clay. This marks Splash’s third greenfield site opened this year and seventh in the last twelve months. Splash now has over 70 car washes open or under development in NY, CT, VT and MA and is ranked as the 19th largest car wash operator in the United States.
The Clay location boasts an impressive 140-foot tunnel outfitted with the latest technology and equipment, including “Optimus Prep”, Splash’s high-pressure wash system. Splash installed 24 free-of-charge vacuum stations, as well as a mat cleaning room, to increase customer convenience and enhance the car wash experience.
The construction was overseen by Dave Clements and Jeff Arnold, Splash’s development partners in Upstate New York. Clements and Arnold have also been responsible for the development of Splash’s Geneva, Leray, and Oswego express washes and have overseen major renovations in Spencerport, Brockport, and Greece.
Currently under construction are express washes in Rutland, VT, and Henrietta, Hamburg, and Jefferson City, NY, all of which are expected to open later this year. “We’re excited to expand our operations in the Syracuse market with the addition of our newest express wash in Clay“, added Mark Curtis, co-founder and CEO of Splash. “This joins our sites in Liverpool and Cicero, and we should begin construction of a new site in Fayetteville soon, which will provide more convenience to our unlimited club members in the area”.
Splash Car Wash was started in 1981 by Mark Curtis and Chris Fisher with a single location in Greenwich, CT. Since that time, Curtis & Fisher, along with their experienced team and partners, have developed over 80 locations, and currently operate carwash tunnels in Connecticut, Vermont, and New York. Many sites include detailing operations, eight locations provide oil change services, and two locations operate laundromats.
Splash currently employs over 1,100 employees and has been named Top Workplace for the past ten years.
