Sam's Steam Auto Detail for interior scenting
Clear ✕All 8 Google reviews tagged “Interior scenting”
I was looking for a high quality interior detailing. I browsed a lot of local shops and read a lot of reviews to find a spot. I saw Sam's and I was honestly surprised by the number of purely positive reviews. Its pretty rare in this business and I am happy to say I trusted these other great reviews and decided to…
Their work lives up to my standard of perfection. I opted for full interior/exterior/engine bay detailing for my older luxury vehicle. Their attention to detail and service ethic will find me a returning customer.
Wonderful service! Sam Steam Auto Detailing did a very professional job detailing my Mercedes and it looks fantastic. They are amazing! I would definitely recommend to family and friends!
My car was not looking its best when I took it in to Sam’s Steam, but it came out looking like new! I’m so happy with the result. Not a stain in sight, they were so thorough and careful. I paid less than what they originally quoted me with (299 for interior detailing with pet hair and stain removal, paid 275). Very pleased and will be coming back again!
I got the complete detail package since my car was pretty dirty inside and out. Now it looks brand new! It’s super shiny and sparkling and the inside is super clean as well (also smells nice as a bonus). The folks here were really nice and helpful, I’ll definitely be back in the future!
These guys are absolute pros! I run dogs as a side gig which means I have dog hair EVERYWHERE in my car. I was amazed at how they were able to clean out the dog hair completely & have my car looking brand new! So grateful for companies like Sam's Steam auto detail who really take pride in what they do! Thank you!
I highly recommend Sam's auto detailing. I never been to a auto detailing center that was as thorough and as detailed oriented as them. I went to them for a complete detail of my car (interior and exterior) and well as a ceramic coating Pro gold package. I have a 4 year old Audi A-6 that had swirling scratches all…
Gosh there is so much good I can say about this place and the guys who work here. Seriously the best detail job I've ever received. I swear my jeep has never been cleaner - when I bought it it was not nearly this clean. Will recommend them to anyone looking for a cleaning. I literally drive here from Downtown for their service. It is so worth it.
