Our Story<\/h2>\n

The Tidal Wave Auto Spa story is the classic American tale, small town, hard work, big dreams, and family.<\/span><\/h3>\n

In 1999, Scott Blackstock was running a successful auto service business in his hometown of Thomaston, Georgia while his wife, Hope, managed their five-bay, touch-free car wash next door. Never ones to sit still, in 2004 the couple opened Georgia\u2019s first express car wash in Riverdale.<\/p>\n

Though it didn\u2019t happen overnight, their first express wash in Riverdale would be the beginning of what has become Tidal Wave Auto Spa, – one of the nation\u2019s fastest-growing car wash companies, with over 2,500 employees.<\/p>\n","content_columns":[{"column_background":{"column_background_type":"default","column_background_color":"","column_background_image":false,"column_image_size":"cover","column_image_width":"","column_image_height":"","column_horizontal_image_position":"center","column_custom_horizontal_position":"","column_vertical_image_position":"center","column_custom_vertical_position":"","column_background_image_repeat":"","column_starting_gradient_color":"","column_starting_color_stop_point":"","column_ending_gradient_color":"","column_ending_color_stop_point":"","column_gradient_degree":"","column_padding":"0"},"column_content_container":"

We are tidal wave<\/h2>\n

The Tidal Wave Auto Spa story is the classic, small town American tale of hard work, big dreams, and family.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1999, Scott and Hope Blackstock opened their first car wash in their hometown of Thomaston, GA. Hope managed the five-bay, touch-free car wash located next door to Scott\u2019s successful auto service business. Never ones to sit still, the couple soon set their sights on building a new car wash experience that was convenient, innovative, and efficient. In 2004, just five short years after opening their first wash, the couple opened Georgia\u2019s first ever express car wash in Riverdale.<\/p>\n

Though it didn\u2019t happen overnight, their first express wash in Riverdale would evolve into one of the nation\u2019s fastest-growing car wash companies, Tidal Wave Auto

Scott and Hope met in high school in the small town of Thomaston, Georgia. After Scott completed his degree at Georgia Tech, they returned to their hometown to start a family. In 1991, the couple welcomed their child, Justis, who was born prematurely and diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Knowing that Justis would require a lifetime of specialized care, Hope and Scott looked for opportunities that could provide the resources to support a rewarding life for Justis.\u00a0 At that time, self-service car washes seemed a reliable way to provide that security.\u00a0 They had no idea that with their inspiration and tireless efforts the business would evolve into the remarkable enterprise it is today.<\/p>\n

Many family members joined the business in the early days of the company, and family has always been at the heart of Tidal Wave. Through hard work, smart business sense, and a dash of luck, the family found success and grew the single Riverdale wash to 13 locations in 2008 in Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina.<\/span><\/p>\n","alt_panel_content_buttons":false},{"alt_panel_title":"Hometown Heroes","row_width":"fixed","row_background_color":"","alt_panel_image":{"ID":3266,"id":3266,"title":"Tidal

As long-time residents, the Blackstocks were keenly aware of economic challenges facing Thomaston. Like many small towns in the South, Thomaston had once been home to busy textile mills that employed mostly local residents. However, those mills had long since shut down, leaving the town seeking new opportunities for economic growth.<\/p>\n

Scott and Hope knew they needed to grow the business to take care of their family, but they also wanted to take care of the people of Thomaston and bring opportunity to the community. Despite recommendations from consultants to relocate Tidal Wave to Atlanta, Scott and Hope committed to doing their part to rebuild the economy of their beloved hometown and kept the company rooted in Thomaston \u2013 providing jobs for hundreds of residents.<\/p>\n","alt_panel_content_buttons":false},{"alt_panel_title":"Building a Better Car

As they began expanding, Hope knew what mattered to customers:\u00a0 convenient, attractive, and clean locations. Her top priority was to make sure women would feel comfortable at Tidal Wave, so she made sure each location was safe, clean, and secure.<\/p>\n

While Hope took care of property acquisition and management, Scott leveraged his engineering experience to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of existing car wash designs. \u00a0His advanced, well-engineered version of the express car wash would become the Tidal Wave signature model and quickly gained the loyalty of customers at each Tidal Wave location.
