About Us
Water Works Express is a privately owned company operating express car washes in North and Central Texas since 1991. Founded on principles of continuous improvement and professional excellence, we remain at the forefront of addressing a critical need in the industry – providing a safe method of cleaning cars that is effective, efficient, and environmentally sustainable.
To that end, we invest in the latest, most technologically advanced equipment and recycle 90% of the water used in the wash process. Our water reclaim equipment filters and cleans water, rendering it appropriate for reuse during various wash cycles.
Excellence | Innovation | Giving Back
We Believe
Dedicated to fostering a collaborative workplace where everyone's voice matters, we are committed to maintaining a values-based culture reflecting our drive for excellence in everything we do. Integrated into our performance-based cultural framework are pillars of caring for others, building mutual trust and respect, creating purpose and meaning in our work, continual learning and development, and innovation. Together, we prioritize a strong work ethic while maintaining a positive, exciting environment where passionate employees thrive.
Integral to our mission of inspiring trust, Water Works supports charities and gives back to our local communities. We partner with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Breast Cancer Research Foundation to raise funds for research, public education, and awareness campaigns. We prioritize community service by partnering with the Kyle Law Enforcement Association and Comal County Sheriff’s Department to raise money and collect toys for their annual Blue and Green Santa Toy Drives. Our latest, critically important project is hosting blood drives with We Are Blood.
Blending our passion for charitable work and our devotion to impacting employees' lives, we encourage our team to volunteer their time and share their experiences with fellow employees. All staff members are offered one hour of PTO each month to volunteer for the nonprofit organization of their choice. By sharing volunteer experiences, we learn more about nonprofits in the community and specific causes that inspire our employees.
So, while communities know us as a carwash with an unwavering focus on the customer, we think of ourselves as something more.
Our Values
Humility | Respect
Our team spends time listening, asking for help when needed, seeking feedback, and practicing gratitude and forgiveness. We review our words and actions against the mark of hubris and excessive pride. For us, respect is more than smiling and being polite. It means that every person is of equal value and deserves the same level of care, respect, and attention.
Curiosity | Solutions Focus
Curiosity is related to an inquisitive way of thinking that fosters new ideas and methods of solving problems. It facilitates a deeper connection between ourselves and the world around us. Curiosity drives us into the unknown, which is where we make discoveries, develop relationships, uncover opportunities, and experience growth.
Authentic Communication
We believe effective communication involves listening as much, if not more, than speaking. Our interactions are not only a means of exchanging information but also a method of nurturing relationships. When communication is authentic, honest, and respectful, conflict is neutralized and understanding enhanced.
Social Responsibility | Purpose Driven
We pursue interests beyond ourselves by contributing to our community and society. Our efforts transcend "do no harm" to proactively understanding and addressing the needs of others. Our aim in being good citizens is to value people and the environment, facilitating a healthy impact.
Continuous Improvement | Excellence
For us, continuous improvement rests on the belief that a steady stream of improvements, diligently executed, will have transformational results. Embedded in our culture is the drive for innovation, diversity, and disruption of the status quo.
Teamwork | Collaboration
We succeed by doing great things together. A shared mission directs us and a unified purpose strengthens us. Our relationships give meaning and richness to our work and lives.
