A teen has turned his love for cleaning into washing cars and now boasts an impressive celebrity customer base including Gary Neville and boxer Tommy Fury.
Zykiah Ditchett, from Salford, was diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder when he was 13 after his family noticed he was 'constantly' cleaning at home.
In an attempt to get him outside more, his family bought him a car valeting set, which he then used to clean relatives cars for a fiver a pop.
He then started offering his car cleaning services to his neighbours, before his mum Jo Ditchett put a post on a local Facebook group in which she explained her son's love of cleaning cars.

She asked anyone who fancied having their car cleaned to leave outside their home and within hours cars were lining the street.
Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, Jo, 45, said: "We had a queue of cars down the close and down the next street.
"Everyone jumped on and supported him. He did it that well they asked to come back. He was charging a fiver but everyone was giving him £10."
Zykiah's efforts soon caught the eye of businessman Jason, from Coal and Cotton Gin bar, who got in touch to offer the teen a permanent base to work from.

Two years on, Zykiah, now aged 15, runs his own social media accounts and website.
The youngster now cleans for the likes of huge stars including Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, Molly-Mae Hague, Tommy Fury and Scott Mctominay.
Jo continued: "He cleans for some Love Island stars. It's all from his social media.
"Anyone who has a high-performance car comes to him but he does all cars.

"And he's all self-taught, he's never done a course. He's done it all online and designed his own flyers.
"A lot of young lads message him asking how he started and he says with a bucket and sponge. He had a bucket and sponge for the whole year before he knew how to use a valeting kit.
"He went on Instagram, YouTube, any channel he could to watch the process."

Despite still being at school, Zykiah has got big plans for his future and one day hopes to have car valeting branches across the UK.
His mum added: "I feel so proud of him. We support him fully.
"We know he's going to do well and continue."
