Communicative and got me in and out the same day. The packages were explained and I only got the interior detailing. My seats looked good for a 7yr old vehicle.

Second time coming to this group to detail my car and they get your car taken care of!! I prefer going here over my own dealership for their "showroom cleaning". I have not been disappointed yet!

Communicative and got me in and out the same day. The packages were explained and I only got the interior detailing. My seats looked good for a 7yr old vehicle. However, I got my interior detailed to remove an odor from my vehicle and it still smells the same. There were micro spots missed that I initially pointed out that needed attention as well. Overall, was my car clean? Yes. As advertised for the price paid? Unfortunately not. Update 07/26/2025: I believe in second chances. They reached out to me and fully re-detailed my car as well as added an additional service to remove the odor. Much more thorough job this go around. I appreciated that they were apologetic about the initial service and were more than willing to rectify the situation and make sure everything was squared away. Still great communication from the business.

Auto Dude pulled up to my loft and detailed my baby like she was a museum piece. I went for the polishing to remove swirl marks and paint correction because I’m super picky about how my Beemer looks. Carlos was early (crazy rare for most service people, no shade) and just a real perfectionist. You can tell he loves what he does. Punctual, meticulous, and eco-conscious—respect! My paint shines better than it did when I drove it off the lot 10 years ago. Definitely booking him again for a ceramic coating next month
