I called originally to have my headlights buffed out and put a clear coating on it. Nathan suggested getting aftermarket headlights from EBay. He helped me locate a perfect replacement and I ordered it. Nathan installed it. He had to remove my front bumper that he did not anticipate doing but did not charge me anything extra. I would definitely recommend Nathan for all your detailing needs!
Nathan and his team were first class. They’re transparent, fair, and high-quality in their work.
They got all the odor out smells like a new truck. And very professional
My car had really bad mold and Nathan fixed it all up perfectly!! Best service ever
After my car got filled with water during a heavy rain when the windows and sunroof were left open, I was honestly worried it might never be the same again. From the very beginning, they were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and reassuring. He took the time to walk me through the entire process, explain what needed to be done, and answer all of my questions without ever making me feel rushed. The level of care and attention to detail was incredible, and you would never know the vehicle had water damage now. The car looks, smells, and feels good as new again. On top of the amazing work, he was great to work throughout the whole process. I highly recommend them to anyone needing detailing or interior restoration work. Five stars all the way!
Fresh Start Detailers went above and beyond taking care of our Bronco Sport after we left the sunroof open and it rained overnight. After the heavy rain, our vehicle developed mold on the floors and smelled awful. Fresh Start Detailers dried everything out, removed all mold, and detailed the entire interior. They performed multiple cleanings until they were sure we’d be satisfied, and the vehicle came back looking brand new. We are extremely grateful for how quickly they took care of us, and we cannot recommend their business more.
I recently had the unfortunate experience of my BMW X5 getting flooded during the heavy rains, but thankfully, I found Fresh Start Detailers. From start to finish, they were absolutely amazing. Their professionalism and efficiency made a stressful situation so much easier to handle. The team at Fresh Start Detailers took care of everything needed to restore my vehicle, and their communication throughout the process was top-notch. I felt informed and supported every step of the way. I truly appreciate the care and attention they provided, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of car detailing, especially after experiencing something like I did. I will be a lifetime customer. Thank you, Fresh Start Detailers, for your incredible service!
I’m extremely happy with the results! My Mustang looks absolutely beautiful. The surface and finish were done really well, and you can tell they paid attention to detail. I also really appreciate Nathan for sharing helpful detailing tips. I highly recommend this auto detailing shop! Great work and great results!
Excellent service. Very responsive throughout the process with timely updates.
