I had a fantastic experience with Andrew's services, which included ceramic coating and window tinting. He consistently delivered outstanding customer service and ensured my complete satisfaction. After my initial visit for ceramic coating, I returned for window tinting, and I couldn't be happier with the results. I highly recommend this location for all your automotive needs.

Sam’s Steam and Auto did an amazing job detailing my Hummer EV. The team was professional, used steam cleaning and high-quality products, and left both the interior and exterior looking spotless. Highly recommend for anyone needing luxury car or EV detailing!

This is one of those reviews I'm actually excited to write. This is THE place to bring your car if you really, truly care about it. As a car enthusiast, I've been scrambling to find PEOPLE, not just service, but actual people who care about cars and the joy they bring to people like me. I'm happy to report that these guys treated my 2016 Focus RS with the love and respect I've long been searching for. I knew I found the right place the moment I pulled up and was greeted by Fady, who instantly recognized my vehicle as an enthusiast car. Upon an initial inspection and a genuine 45-minute conversation, I felt like I had just visited a car therapist. He asked me questions NO detailer has ever asked me, all of which got to the core of why I came to visit in the first place: I want to see my car living its best life again. Recognizing the RS needed some TLC, he (correctly) suggested I needed to upgrade my detail to a paint correction and reapplication of ceramic coating (I had done it years back, but didn't maintain it). While expensive, I knew he meant every word because I could tell HE wanted to see the car come back to life as badly as I did. So I dropped off my keys, excited to see the results. I picked my car up a few days later and... well, just look at those photos! It's a brand new car all over again. They even fixed scratches that were bothering me for years and meticulously got every swirl mark out in sight. The car is a straight up mirror now. Afterwards, I got a detailed explanation over the phone on how to maintain the coating. But it doesn't end there... recognizing I had found my tribe of car lovers, I reached out to Fady to recommend mechanics who actually know and understand my specific vehicle for maintenance, as I've been struggling to find a shop that can competently work on my car. He was more than resourceful. BONUS: I also met the owner Andrew while stopping by walking my dog. Same thing, genuine car person that wants to see beautiful machines stay beautiful. Not much else I to say! Other than simply: I've found my detailer. People tend to throw out 5-star reviews a little too liberally these days, but believe me when I tell you that it is 100% warranted with these guys. Now if you'll excuse me.. I'm off for a drive.

Fady and his team took care of my vehicle this week when a vehicle had side-swiped my car, which left a scratch on the side. I’ve been coming to this place multiple times and no other detailing service does it better than Andrew and Fady’s team. I truly appreciate their attention and hard work with each service. I always leave being more than satisfied after each appointment. If you are looking for detailing services, I highly recommend you give this place a try. You will not regret it!

Night & Day difference! Sam's Steam has taken care of my vehicles for the past three years and their washes are better than most others' details. When I went to him about a headlight restoration, he was super clear in communicating what the risks could be. The detailed consultation and willingness to share potential risks is what keeps me coming back. Sam's Steam got rid of the peeling clear coat & yellowing plastic--made these 20 year old headlights good as new!

Amazing attention to detail, and the final result is outstanding. My faded 2004 325I has been restored so well that it now looks like it has a fresh coat of paint. The interior looks amazing as well. Fady and Andrew are experts at what they do and are committed to customer satisfaction. I highly recommend!

I had an area on my car, about 2 square inches, and wanted to put touch-up paint on it because the paint had chpped off. I didn't trust myself to do a decent job, so I went to Sam's shop (Federal Blvd., in West LA), and saw Andrew. He recommended that I save the money and do it myself. I was prepared to do that, but I showed him my tube of touch-up paint because it was 10 years old, and asked if he thought I should get a new tube. He took the tube and did the job himself. I offered to pay whatever he wanted, but he said no charge. Very nice of him. If I ever want detailing, that's where I'll go!

Nothing but great things to say about Andro and his team. I brought to them the equivalent of a barn find air cooled 911. Deep scratches on the paint - everywhere - and an engine that looked like it had just driven through the desert. The team did an amazing job transforming the car back to its glossy black, showroom finish — both inside and out. They also resolved a number of body and interior issues without charge. Fantastic customer service! there’s a reason all his reviews are 5 star…

My 4Runner’s paint was pretty messed up after years of off-roading, kids, and DIY or local “hand washing”. Paint chips, scratches, swirls everywhere. I finally decided to get paint correction done and talked to a few shops. These guys gave me straight, honest advice and did the work for an honest price. Came out looking incredible. Hard to capture in pictures. I ended up doing the paint correction plus a ceramic coat. Highly recommend.

I can not thank these guys enough. I took my 1973 VW Thing, a car I don't trust with anyone, and they knocked it out of the park. Last month's rain caused my building's garage ceiling to leak on my car's leather top, window, and hood, leaving a nasty water/calcium stain. I thought the paint was ruined, but these guys took care of it, and the car looks brand new. The photos do not do it justice. Update: 2/15/24 The SAME thing happened in my building where the garage ceiling leaked and caused a ton of calcium build up all over the car and leather top. I took it to Sam's and they killed it again. We were worried about how much clearcoat was left, given the vintage of the car. I had the car back in two days and it was good as new. I appreciate there service and helping me out in a timely fashion.

I had an amazing experience with Sam’s Steam! From the very first time I reached out, they went out of their way to fit me into their busy schedule the same day. I started with a mini detail, and when I got my car back, it looked incredible. Ever since then, I’ve been coming back regularly for details, and my car always looks so clean and well taken care of. The team is friendly, professional, and truly takes pride in their work. Highly recommend!

I brought my car here for interior water damage and mold (window was open during a rainstorm) and am happy with the results! Aside from the quick and high quality service, they were also communicative and personable and had some helpful tips about my car maintenance. I would definitely come back in the future.

First, I highly recommend this business. They are my go to place to keep my car looking new. A couple of years ago I came to them to get my engine steam cleaned. An auto body shop fixing my car noticed rat droppings under the hood. Yikes! Fady scheduled an appointment right away. When I picked up my car the engine looked like I had just left the showroom. Wow! Yesterday Fady and the team completed a complete detail (interior and exterior) with headlight restoration. The detail work was fantastic. The headlight restoration was the best. When I went to pick up my car it looked brand new. Really! I get compliments on how well I keep my car but Sam’s took it to a new level. Fady and the team have always communicated well and given outstanding customer service. This team is professional, kind, and thorough. This is not your usual place. If you’re looking for a bargain or cheapie cheap, this is probably not the place for you. This is an outstanding service for the value you pay. It’s worth every dollar!! I’m a client because no one does it better. I usually don’t write reviews but the team at Sam’s is exceptionally good.

I’ve been going to Sam’s Steam Auto Detail in Playa Vista for about a year, and they always do an amazing job. Andro, the manager, is excellent and very responsive, and Rudy always takes great care of my car. Today I got a complete detail, and it looks sparkling new! The quality and service make it worth the detailing price. I also love the standard car wash service as well. The level of professionalism and attention to detail finally convinced me to sign up for one of their monthly memberships, which is such a great value. I’m pretty particular about car washes, and Sam’s is the best! The Playa Vista location is convenient because you can drop off your car, visit the farmers market, grab lunch, shop at Whole Foods, or just relax at the park while they work. We love it. Thank you, Andro and the team at Sam’s!

I've had my BMW SUV cleaned at Sam's Steam Auto Detail for about a year through their membership - which I highly recommend. The owner and his entire team are not only incredible at what they do, but wonderful people all around! They are put to the test with a vehicle that goes through constant beach/hiking debris and the daily wear and tear of an active husky - but somehow they have it looking brand new inside & out each time. I'm happy to have found them and can't recommend them enough!

Sams Auto Detail made a usually very hard and stressful experience so easy and smooth. I could not recommend these guys enough, they are AMAZING!!!!! After a rainstorm, I had a leak in my car that left moisture and then mold in my seats, a very hard clean up and it felt like a race against time. I got quotes from different places and to start, the transparency of the situation here was so appreciated. They told me what was wrong, what the smell was, how to fix it, and their price. My concerns were understood and they did everything they could to accommodate me. Before, to add, my car was very much due for an interior cleaning as I love using my car to go to the beach and camping, you can imagine it is not the cleanest. I had no idea that when I picked up my car, they completely transformed it. I was in shock and elated. As just the smell was my concern, Sam's went above and beyond to completely transform my car and walked me through the whole process and answered all my questions (completed in pretty much 24 hours to add!) To conclude, I could go on and on all day about how amazing they are and how well my car was cared for, but I truly recommend everyone coming across this review to go in person or even on the phone for a quote. Thank you so so much again Sam's!

Absolutely incredible experience! I took my car to Sam’s to get the interior detailed, but they ended up selling me on the ceramic coating for my car as well, which I really needed. I was given a fair quote and picked up the car after two days. Needless to say i was thoroughly impressed! They managed to clean up all the micro scratches on the cars paint. The car looks better than it did even when i drove it off the dealership lot! these guys really seem care about what they do and take pride in all their work id highly recommend you to use them if you also care a lot about your car.

I had my car detailed at Sam’s Auto Detail and was absolutely blown away by the level of care and attention they put into their work. It truly felt like they were treating my car as if it were their own. Every inch was spotless, and the results exceeded all my expectations. Now I fully understand why they have a perfect 5 star rating! It's more than well deserved. Their passion and dedication to what they do left a lasting impression on me. I’m still thinking about how great the experience was!

I had left my car at a parking garage near LAX for 3 and a half months from May to August when I was out of town. As a result of the heat and humidity there was mold all over the steering wheel, front seats, parking brake, center console and the back seats. I called multiple places and none were equipped or had any clue how to deal with the problem. Andrew was amazing. He was responsive and called me immediately. He knew how to properly remove the mold as well as steam clean and use ozone to get rid of the smell. He brought my beloved 2015 VW GTI back to live and the interior honestly never looked better. I also had him do his magic to clean and polish the exterior and steam clean the engine as well. He went above and beyond and his team did a fantastic job. I am extremely grateful to all the hard work his team put into the car and he has a loyal customer. Definitely briinging the car back to Andrew and team there at Sam's Steam in the future.
