Thinking about getting your car detailed but not sure how mobile detailing works? You’re not alone. We get asked all kinds of questions about what’s included, how the process works, and why detailing is worth it. To make things simple, we’ve put together answers to the 16 most common questions customers ask us about mobile detailing.
Mobile detailing is a professional cleaning and restoration service that comes to you. Unlike a drive-through car wash, mobile detailing goes beyond just washing your car. We deep clean, polish, and protect your vehicle both inside and out. Another bonus is that you never have to wait in a line in order to get washed.
Yes! We bring our equipment and products right to your driveway or office parking lot, making it convenient for you. As long as there is a water spicket to connect to we can go anywhere.
Electricity is provided by us with our generator. Water would need to be provided at this time until we are able to upgrade to a truck or van. (The cost of the water used would be anywhere from $1-$2 and would be taken off the cost of service if that is something the customer wants.)
Timing all depends on the service, a detail can take anywhere from 1–5 hours. A quick wash and wax is shorter, while full paint correction and ceramic coating take longer. Upon arrival we will tell you the estimated time it will take to complete the service.
We primarily serve the South Shore, Cape Cod, and nearby towns. We are willing to go pretty much where ever the customer needs their service done. if you are wondering if we will come to your area please feel free to contact us and we will be more than happy to answer any of your questions.
Yes, as long as there’s safe, legal parking and enough space for us to work.
A full detail covers both interior and exterior. That means vacuuming, shampooing carpets, wiping down surfaces, cleaning windows, exterior wash, wax/sealant, and wheel cleaning. to see the exact process and what to expect check out our service tab for information and our portfolio to see the results.
Absolutely. We have packages for just interiors, just exteriors, or both together. Although they may not be listed in services, contact us with the services your car needs and we will tailor a package that will fit.
Paint correction is a machine-polishing process that removes swirl marks, oxidation, and light scratches to restore shine and depth. If your paint looks dull or scratched, you’ll benefit from it. For More information visit our blog post "Paint Correction", where we go more in detaill of what to expect.
Of course we do, we use Gtechniq ceramic coatings, which can protect and shine your vehicle’s paint for 3-5 years. To learn more about ceramic coatings click the button below that will bring you to our blog post where we go into detail about it.
Most customers schedule detailing every 3–6 months, but it depends on your driving habits and how much protection you want for your car. We also offer a discounted weekly, biweekly, and monthly service if interested. To learn more and see pricing on repeat services contact us.
We use professional-grade products like P&S, ONR, and Gtechniq. They’re safe, effective, and designed specifically for automotive surfaces. These products are also eco-friendly as well. If water waste is a concern of yours, we also offer waterless and minimal water washes.
Most definitely. Our methods are safe for ceramic coatings, wraps, PPF, and all modern paint systems.
It sure can, we will make sure that all damage is reported before starting so that there is no mix up after. Depending on how bad the damage is we may not touch the affected spot.

Tipping is not expected but is always accepted. Do not feel obligated to tip and whether you do or not does not effect the outcome of your service.
