Complete answers to help you understand our services and process
What mobile detailing services do you offer?
We offer comprehensive mobile detailing including our Interior Detail, Complete Detailing, and flagship Premium Protection Package, plus ceramic coating, paint correction, and specialized services for RVs, boats, and commercial fleets. All services come to your location for maximum convenience.
How long does a typical detailing service take?
Timing varies by package: Interior Detail (1.5-2.5 hours) and Complete Detailing (2.5-3.5 hours). The Premium Protection Package is a full day of work, typically 8-10 hours. A standalone ceramic coating usually takes 4-6 hours, and RV or boat detailing may take longer depending on size. We'll provide exact timing when you book.
Do you come to me? (Mobile Service)
Yes! We're a fully mobile detailing service. We come to your home, office, RV storage facility, marina, or any location that's convenient for you. All we need is access to water and electricity. This saves you time and eliminates the hassle of dropping off and picking up your vehicle.
What's included in each service package?
Each service targets what your vehicle needs. Interior Detailing is a deep cabin clean and sanitization; Exterior Detailing covers a foam bath, hand wash, wheels and tires, and a spray ceramic sealant; Complete Detailing combines both in one appointment; and the Premium Protection Package adds long-lasting ceramic protection.

How do I book an appointment?
Booking is easy! Simply call us at (681) 317-0964 or use our online contact form. We offer same-day service availability and can typically accommodate your schedule. We'll confirm your appointment time and location, and our professional team will arrive ready to work.
What products do you use?
We use only premium, professional-grade products that are safe for your vehicle and the environment. For boats, we use marine-safe, biodegradable products. All products are specifically chosen for their effectiveness and safety on different vehicle materials and finishes.
Do you provide your own water and equipment?
Yes, we bring all necessary equipment and can provide our own water when needed. For most locations, we can use your water source, but we're fully equipped for situations where water access is limited, such as apartment complexes or remote locations.
How much does mobile detailing cost?
Our pricing starts at $150 for interior detailing services and varies based on vehicle size, condition, and package selected. Exterior detailing starts at $60. RV, boat, and semi-truck detailing are specialty jobs we price with a custom quote, and fleet services offer volume discounts. Contact us for a personalized estimate based on your specific needs.
What's the difference between your packages?
They build on each other. Interior or Exterior Detailing each cover one side of the car; Complete Detailing does both in one appointment; the Premium Protection Package adds long-lasting ceramic protection; and dedicated ceramic coating and paint correction go further on protection and finish.
Do you offer discounts or promotions?
Yes! We offer discounts for fleet customers, regular maintenance programs, and seasonal promotions. Military and first responders receive special pricing. Contact us to learn about current promotions and how to save on regular detailing services.
Are there any hidden fees?
No hidden fees! Our pricing is transparent and includes all standard services listed in each package. The only additional charges might be for extreme soiling that requires extra time, or for locations outside our standard service area (which we'll discuss upfront).
Do you charge travel fees?
No travel fees within our standard service area of Marietta and surrounding communities. For locations outside our primary coverage zones, we may apply a small travel fee which will be disclosed upfront when booking. Most customers within 45 miles have no additional charges.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, all major credit cards, and digital payments including Venmo and PayPal. Payment is due upon completion of service after you've inspected and approved our work. We also offer invoicing for commercial and fleet accounts.

How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking 24-48 hours in advance, but same-day service is often available depending on location and time of year. During peak seasons (spring/summer), booking a few days ahead ensures your preferred time slot.
Do you service apartments and condos?
Yes! We regularly service apartments, condos, and office buildings. We coordinate with building management and handle all access requirements to make the process seamless for you. We're experienced with parking garage access and building policies.
Can you work at RV storage facilities and marinas?

Do you provide service during winter months?
Yes, we provide year-round service! While exterior work may be limited during extreme weather, we can always provide interior detailing services. We monitor weather conditions and will reschedule outdoor services if conditions aren't suitable for quality results.
Do you detail RVs and motorhomes?
Yes! We specialize in RV detailing for all types including Class A, B, and C motorhomes, travel trailers, fifth wheels, and toy haulers. Our equipment and techniques are designed to handle vehicles from compact travel trailers to large luxury motorhomes.

Do you provide fleet detailing for businesses?
Yes! We offer comprehensive fleet detailing solutions for businesses of all sizes. We provide volume pricing, flexible scheduling to minimize downtime, account management, and can coordinate services across multiple locations.
What's the benefit of ceramic coating?
Ceramic coating provides long-term protection for your vehicle's paint. It creates a hydrophobic layer that repels water, dirt, and contaminants, making your car easier to clean and maintain. The coating also provides UV protection and can last up to 5 years with proper maintenance.
Do you offer paint correction services?
Yes! Our paint correction services remove swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation to restore your paint's clarity and depth. We use professional-grade compounds and polishes with proper technique to achieve mirror-like results while preserving your paint.
Can you handle commercial trucks and semi-trucks?
Absolutely! We provide professional detailing for semi-trucks, commercial vehicles, and large fleets. Our equipment is designed for large vehicles, and we understand the importance of professional appearance for DOT inspections and company image.
Do you clean RV awnings and slide-outs?
Yes! Our RV packages include awning cleaning and slide-out cleaning. We use specialized cleaners safe for RV fabrics and seals, and we inspect all slide-out seals and mechanisms during our service to ensure everything is properly maintained.
Are your services safe for different vehicle materials?
Absolutely. We use vehicle-specific products that are safe for fiberglass, aluminum, rubber, leather, fabric, and all automotive finishes. Our team is trained in proper techniques for different materials to ensure no damage while achieving excellent results.
