I had my 4 door BLACK Accord’s exterior Show Room detailed. It had been over 3 years since it was last detailed and had accumulated a myriad of minor scratches, a kaleidoscope of swirls, and an impressive collection of small dots of tree sap. It should be noted that black vehicles offer unique challenges equating to very valid reasons why most if not all profession auto detailers charge extra for a black vehicles. Having had several discussions with the owner Nick, it became evident that he takes pride in his business and the end quality of the services provided. The exceptional quality of the Show Room detailing completed on my car far exceeded my expectations. Nick is the real deal, and I could not be more satisfied his work product in all respects. I’ll definitely be back in the Spring!

Since this spot is a Carco inspection location, my husband and I stopped by to get our car looked at for insurance reasons. Despite showing up within 30 minutes of the shop closing for the day, the inspection took less than 15 minutes, and Nick, the owner, was friendly, professional, and overall just a very nice guy. Thanks for the great service!

I needed to get photos done for inspection for my auto insurance. He was very accommodating, friendly, professional, respectful. I drove from an hour away, I have a tight schedule with my littles and he was able to get me in!! He made the process se easy and timely!! I highly recommend, and if I had more time and lived closer I would get a detail done as well. Thank you so much again!!!

I had to get an inspection for insurance purposes and I couldn’t have gone to a better place. It was nice and efficient, Nicholas was helpful with answering any questions and concerns that I had. I strongly recommend going here. They have a great reputation in the area and now I see why

Nick was super helpful and professional helping me out with an insurance inspection for my car. He was easy to get in contact with, answered any questions that I had, and made a situation I expected to be tedious incredibly easy! I would recommend him to anyone and will definitely take my car to him for future needs. Thanks for the help!!

Got me in quick for an insurance inspection. Very professional and prompt. Also very clean, uncluttered shop. I drive an older car but know several people who have used them for detailing and the results are great. They really take care of repeat customers. You get what you pay for so why not get quality and have it done right the first time.

Had to pop in for a last-minute inspection for my insurance. Nicholas was unbelievably kind both on the phone and in person. He was very helpful with the process and explanations of the inspection details. He had me in and out in minutes for something others had me waiting weeks to book for! Thoroughly impressed and would highly recommend!

Great customer service... I procrastinated and realized my groupon was going to expire in 4 days. They were able to get me in the next day!! The cleaning was immaculate, my car was a mess with dog hair and winter dirt. When I picked it up, he apologized that he couldn't get all of the dog hair. When I looked over the car, I barely noticed any, especially in comparison to how it was. The car looked like it was brand new!! 5 stars!!!

Nick did an absolutely fantastic job with my GR Corolla. I had an incident where 10 quarts of used motorcycle oil were spilled in the hatch of my car, which seeped through to the back seats and floor, ruining most of the interior upholstery that was touched. I did everything I could, stripped the interior to the metal and replaced interior components I found on eBay to clean what I could throughout about 25 hours of labor, yet I still had lingering oil smells that were starting to get stale and even smellier. Nick took the time to talk this through with me, take a look at my car, give me recommendations, and he suggested an interior detail and an ozone treatment, assuring me that would eliminate odors. When I got my car back, it looked better than it did when it was brand new. All I could smell was ozone the first few days (to be expected), but I put my nose up to certain places in the carpet that I know had smelled before, and all of the smells were completely gone. The ozone has since dissipated and the new car smell is present every time I get in the car again. It is SUCH a relief having spent the money on a newer car to not have to worry about having such an unpleasant smell be trapped in my interior. As an enthusiast and someone who has diligently maintained and repaired my own vehicles for my entire life, I felt completely comfortable with Nick handling my car the entire time and would never hesitate to go back to him for any future detailing I may need. I cannot give a more emphatic recommendation to anyone who needs detailing-- people like Nick are rare to find and he absolutely deserves your business.

I am a first car owner of a used car that’s back in 2008, and let me tell you that Nick has some wicked magic powers. The car had marker stains, sticker residue, dirt and grime you can think of and Nick made it unbelievably clean and looking new within a few hours. This was such a great experience for me and he is also an awesome guy to chat with and making you feel at ease with your car in his hands. 1000 out of 10; I would highly recommend!

They were friendly, professional, courteous, and went above and beyond. I went there to get insurance inspection photos taken.. Thanks for expediting me even though I came after hours! Also, they gave me some helpful and personalized auto information regarding my vehicle and my insurance. KUDOS! [EDIT] Returned again (passing by so decided to take pictures) -- and again, super friendly, helpful, and once again: they shared more helpful knowledge, that I hadn't known about my vehicle. Stop in and say hello, and when the time comes that you want a very thorough detail, pull the trigger with S.E.D. Just look at some of the Before / After pictures other reviewers have posted.

I highly recommend this auto detail shop. Nick did an excellent job on my car; he made my 2016 look brand new. Inside and outside I am so pleased I had to get my undercoat before winter there. I have always felt skeptical about leaving my car somewhere, but after talking to Nick, I felt a little more comfortable, and any reservations I had were immediately gone. Will I come back? Definitely, I will be back. I appreciate the friendliness, Thank you, Nick, 100 times thank you Victoria Y

Bought an interior and exterior detail and Nick did an amazing job. Prices as advertised on his website. Found him on reddit and absolutely no regrets. He's a great guy as well, very friendly and honest, gave me good advice for maintenance moving forward. Thank you!!
