Splash Car Wash continues its expansion in New York State with the opening of its 66th location, this one in Henrietta, N.Y.
The new wash, outfitted with a 130-foot conveyor and 27 free self-service vacuums, is Splash’s 41st in New York.
The Henrietta location was completed under the direction of Dave Clements and Jeff Arnold, two of Splash’s development partners and the former owners of the Classy Chassy chain, which Splash acquired in October of 2021.
Clements and Arnold are also managing the construction of a new site in Hamburg, N.Y., which is expected to open within the next month.
“Every new site we open is exciting for us and our team,” stated Mark Curtis CEO and co-founder of Splash. “This new site is designed and equipped to handle high volume, and we’ve opened just in time to handle all the cars covered in salt from this recent snowstorm.”
In addition to the sites in Henrietta and Hamburg, Splash has started construction on three new express washes in Fayetteville, Newburgh and Nanuet, N.Y.; and one in Springfield, Mass., with anticipated openings in the late summer to early fall 2025.
“We are very focused on continuing to expand our platform in the Northeast with state-of-the-art buildings, equipment, systems and services,” said Splash president Dan Petrelle.
Splash Car Wash, headquartered in Milford, Conn., operates more than 60 sites in four states – Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts, and Vermont – for car washes, detailing services and oil changes at select locations.
