How To Choose A Mobile Car Detailing Service Provider

So you’re wondering how to choose a car detailing service?

There are a few things to consider when choosing a car detailing service. A few questions are if they offer mobile detailing, if their Google reviews meet your standards, if their prices aren’t questionably low, and if they are close to you.

Having a clean car is nonnegotiable if you want to stay safe and hold up your vehicle’s value, and mobile detailing is one of the most efficient ways of going about it.

Check The Detailer’s Google Reviews

Sift through the reviews and make sure that they are responsive, professional, and highly rated businesses. Sure, every business will have unreasonable customers that go keyboard-warrior mode on them. Still, more often than not, a trustworthy company will have a justifiable ratio of positive to negative reviews.

Most people don’t use a business with the end goal of complaining or nitpicking the company, but to purchase a quality service to meet their needs.

Check For A Car Detailing Certification

Not every excellent detailer has a certification, but most certified detailers are great. They aren’t required to have it in order to operate a business, but it is a good way of playing it safe.

Don’t be afraid to ask for certification when shopping around for a detailer.

Check If Their Price Seems Too Low

Most high-quality detailers in 2022 charge an average price of $250 for a car detail. Of course, the price varies highly due to factors like location, vehicle size, vehicle condition, and the type of service.

Taking the risk that comes with the $50 detail simply isn’t worth it. It may be anything from poor quality service to a damaged vehicle.

The Verdict 

Choosing which car detailer to use in order to service your vehicle can be a difficult decision. With this article, you now have a few things in your arsenal to glance at when selecting a business for your next cleaning!

We are extremely well satisfied with the work done by Darren on our two cars; an eleven year old Audi and an eleven year old Lexus. The cars look almost new. Darren showed up on time, did the work efficiently and thoroughly, and the price was very competitive. We will definitely use his service again.

Darren did a great job on my pickup truck I use for construction. I was surprised how clean he got it inside.

Tyrone came out today and detailed my dad’s Tesla model X for us. Let me tell you - that man is so incredibly positive. You just feel good talking to him. He spent a large amount of time detailing his car and it looks better than it did the day he bought it! We could not be more thrilled and will continue to use Tyrone every month to detail and keep it looking great! The pricing is extremely competitive and even on the lower end compared to other mobile retailers! We are extremely pleased all the way around!

If I could put 10000+ Stars I would. Words can't explain how satisfied, I am. Tyrone did a phenomenal job, he took his time and you can tell he loves what he does. My car looks brand new, the seats are so clean and when I opened my car the smell of brand new car hit me. If you are looking for someone to detail your car STOP LOOKING, Because you found them and the customer service is excellent! I highly strongly recommend them you will not be disappointed!

02/08/24 We are not local to this area, visiting with our son. Three large cups of coffee were accidentally split in our vehicle this morning... What a mess! Found some one online who didn't do interior detailing, however recommended Darren. He made arrangements to clean our truck that day. His men were here at scheduled time, did a fantastic job! Highly recommend Sumptuous Mobile Detailing!

Amazing and meticulous! Darren did such a great job with my vehicle that his services were requested the very next day by my hubby. My vehicle is so clean that I’m afraid to get in and undo all of his hard work. Most importantly, he took his time and didn’t rush the job.
