Basic Detail
Clean, refreshed and close to new. The full wash and interior wipe-down most cars need a couple of times a year.
A thorough wash and interior clean
The Basic Detail covers the places a quick wash skips. Beyond the hand wash and wheels, we vacuum the seats, carpets and trunk, clean the dash, console and door panels, do the interior windows, wipe the door jambs and clean light trim.
It suits a car that is in decent shape and just needs a proper clean. If you have stains, heavy pet hair or odors, the Interior Deep Detail or Premium Full Detail will be a better fit.

$129 for a sedan and $159 for an SUV or truck.
How long will it take?
Plan on 1.5 to 2.5 hours.
Does it remove stains?
Light marks often come out with panel cleaning, but stains on seats or carpet need the shampoo add-on.
