Personally, I would keep home separate from business. You run into home as business premises with council tax charged at business rates (neighbours will report a change of premise use when they get sick of parked cars and traffic increase). Then insurance implications. AND I think it gives the wrong impression conducting business detailing from home. Finance is easy to come by at very low interest. Put together a 3 year plan with forecasts and make a business case. Many units have security included in the rental and having additional CCTV is cheap. Just my opinion. Much better uptake is likely from own business premises - professional and match it with high quality detailing and you have a good combination. Become an authorised user of GTechniq or Gyeon or similar products. Rental is cheap versus storage costs for cars with security (around £100 - £200 per month). A talk with an accountant very early on is always useful in my opinion and experience.

Firstly, I am delighted for you. I mentioned whether you'd ever do this professionally a whole back, as your great at it and it's a passion. Well done for taking the leap!
Do you have anywhere else on your property that is road accessible, other than your driveway?
Its been a while since I've been over and I don't really recall.
My best guess would be that you leave your GS on the driveway under a cover when you have customer cars, then return it to the garage when empty?
As for a good enough premises or operating from home. I see no issue. Sure you can do some work to your garage to have lights set up etc, so that it's more of a professional premises.

Best cover I have found.
I do like that ! When you say "what I built" , is it really self assembly? Guessing that some parts will need two people. I really fancy doing one of these to replace former farm open barn the have now. Structure is steel frame clad in asbestos so it really has to go.This is what I built. Depending on size should come in around £10k including ground works and power. Very high quality.
