Frequently Asked Questions

Mobile car detailing is a professional cleaning and restoration service that comes to your home, office, or location. Unlike a basic car wash, detailing goes beyond the surface — deep cleaning your car’s interior and exterior with professional-grade products. It restores shine, protects paint, and keeps your vehicle looking showroom-ready without you having to drive anywhere.

While a regular car wash just cleans the surface, mobile detailing goes the extra mile to restore and protect your vehicle. It includes paint protection, interior shampooing, stain removal, leather treatment, and more. It's a comprehensive service aimed at preserving your car’s value and appearance for the long term.

A full detail typically includes exterior wash, wax, paint protection, and deep interior cleaning. Our packages may include vacuuming, steam cleaning, carpet shampooing, leather conditioning, tire shine, clay bar treatment, and ceramic coating options. Each detail is customized to your vehicle’s needs.

Yes — waterless detailing is 100% safe and eco-friendly when done by professionals. We use advanced cleaning solutions and microfiber techniques that lift dirt without scratching. This method saves water, protects your paint, and is ideal for cities with water restrictions.

A monthly maintenance plan for car detailing is a subscription-based service that offers regular car cleaning and maintenance at discounted rates. It allows customers to keep their vehicles in top condition throughout the year.

Most car detailing sessions take 2–4 hours, depending on the vehicle size and condition. Quick maintenance details may be done in 90 minutes, while deep restorations (interior shampoo, ceramic coating, etc.) can take 5–7 hours. We can provide an estimated timeframe before starting.

To prepare your car for detailing, remove personal items, larger trash, car seats, toys, and general clutter. If possible, park your vehicle in a shaded area and ensure there's enough space for us to open all doors wide.

The cost of mobile car detailing typically ranges from $100 to $600, depending on the package and vehicle size.
