Very professional, made the vehicle look like it came out of the showroom.
Very knowledgeable and fantastic customer service. Got me in the next day for a detail. Highly recommend. They did an incredible job and priced very fairly. Will be bringing back the other cars soon.
Mikey was very professional and confident in his work, couldn’t be happier with how my car came out!! Will definitely be going to the detail shop from now on
Great place to bring your car!!!!
If you’re looking for a detail shop with Integrity and an emphasis on Quality You found it Mike has old school values and innovative detail technology Great job on my 2023 Tesla Y Bob Dutch
Great job! Good communication & accommodation!! Mike was a pleasure to deal with and did a pristine tint on our car!! We surely intend to do business with him again because he offers an array of services!!
I was thinking about putting tint windows on my new car Toyota Camry 23 , I searched on Google for the closest one to home, I made a appointment and marked the day for me, I left my car on the way back to get my car ready in 2 hours, I was incredibly surprised by the work that Mike did I will definitely recommend it…
Only had a small window to get the job done they got me right in and did a great job at a good price .
I paid for ceramic coating , Opti-Coat Pro+, and TDS did a great job. The car looks great and I was briefed on what was needed for care moving forward. I called in beforehand asking several questions and they were very helpful with explaining the process, what to expect, etc. Would recommend.
I had an outstanding experience at The Detail Shop! They recently installed Paint Protection Film (PPF) on the front end of my vehicle and tinted the windows, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The PPF installation was flawless – it's practically invisible, and I can already tell that it's going to provide…
Wife got me a car detailing as a gift. Car was a dirty mess. The Detail Shop did a great job. My car looks great, smells great. Everyone there was awesome.
Great Job, fast service and friendly staff
Mike and everyone at TDS LLC were very professional and a pleasure to deal with. They did an excellent job on my car and I highly recommend their services.
Great experience, this business is top notch. Detailing was superb, car is shining inside and out like brand new. Highly recommend.
Car looked brand new. They completed the service quickly and it was very affordable! Will definitely be going back
Amazing! Eight years of dirt and grime built up, and now the car looks like it came right off the new car lot! I didnt believe it could be done. I'm very happy with the results. Mike did a fantastic job.
Brought my new 4runner for the ceramic coating. Talked to Mike and he was totally professional and explained in detail what would be involved and how to care for the car after the service. Everything was communicated well and done as he said and the car looks terrific. I would highly recommend this shop for car detail work.
Mikes a pro. Reliable, fast, and pays attention to detail. I drove 45 minutes out of my way to use their services. Generally, I’m pretty hard to please and I’m usually disappointed one way or another when other people work on my car. Zero complaints here! I would use TDS again
Mike and his team did a great job on revitalizing both the inside and outside of my 2012 LR. It looks new! The back leather seat had dirt embedded in it from many travels with my dog and 99% of it came out. They are not inexpensive, but the value was certainly worth the price!
It’s simple, Mike at TDS Coating is the only one touching my family vehicles. His work is meticulous every time. 10 Stars
Mike and the staff at The Detail Shop is second to none. Their meticulous attention to detail is top notch. They are truly committed to their craft and the results are evident. I won't trust my truck's detailing to anyone else.
Excellent work as always, thank you!
I purchased the Full Detail. Worth every penny. Exceptional service. I've gotten what's supposed to be the same "Full Detail" elsewhere in the past and it was less than noteworthy. I highly recommend The Detail Shop!
The team at The Detail Shop did a great job cleaning up our Subaru. It hadn’t been properly cleaned for years and it came out great.
Mike was great! Very professional, explained everything they were going to do, my vehicle turned out great the finish shines like a mirror! Thanks for a great job!
Mike was amazing, I was really impressed with the service. My car looked better than how I bought it. Given that my car has been hauling soil samples, and has been through a lot. He was very patient with accommodating my schedule as well. The staff was very professional and respectful. Would come again, and would…
This team did an amazing job on my Jeep Grand Cherokee. The car looked almost brand new again. The restored my car, inside and out in ways I didnt expect.
An excellent source of information, and great communication before, during, and after service. Did a detail + ceramic coating and couldn’t be happier! Would highly recommended!
Highly recommend TDS, Mike and his team are very responsive, punctual and did a amazing job!
Great service. They kept me posted on everything throughout the process. They gave me an accurate timeline and explained all of my purchased services. I got a ceramic coating and tinting on a Tesla Model 3 and when I picked it up…it was sparkling ✨ It looked good. I have no complaints. I’ll probably bring in my suv…
All I can say is wow I'm over satisfied car looks beautiful gonna have my interior done here next excellent work highly recommended!!!!!!!!
Mike detailed my car, came out fantastic. Would recommend 5 out 5.
Wonderful experience! I have a 2020 dodge vehicle that had recently gotten a partial wrap, but also needed some tlc. Swirls galore, a clear coat that was deteriorating faster than I could fathom, and not knowing what I should get done for my car. I left their shop knowing; how they will get the swirls fixed, how…
TDS did a great job on my F150 and then my wife’s Forester! Outstanding! Great communication, fast service, easy scheduling.
Wow. Just incredible work and at an affordable price. Can’t beat it! Very easy to work with and the results speak for themselves. Had a one stage paint correction and 3 year ceramic coating done to a 30 year old BMW with original paint and it’s been brought back to life better than I could have imagined. Thanks again, Mike!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!I’ve never had any of my cars cleaned properly nor do I know much about this business and from the first call I had with Mike I’ve been nothing but pleased. I brought my car to get paint corrected and was blown away at the results!
Mike and crew did an amazing job on my car, inside and out. Full detail and ceramic coating. It looks better than showroom. Prices are very fair and would highly recommend TDS. This won't be my last car that they do.
Mike & company did a phenomenal job cleaning the interior of my SUV! I recommend their services.
Mike is the guy if you want it looking sparkly and fresh!!!!
Mike and his crew did an amazing job detailing my wife's car. These guys do quality work, you can tell they pride in what they do. Would highly recommend!
Squirrels decided to make nest in my car. Caused water leak in my front interior. After dealership cleaned it and washed it, I had bad smell in my interior. I was advised to get deep cleaning of my car. After searching I chose The Detail Shop, and I am extremely happy I did. Prompt response, professionalism, and the…
Blessed to meet the owner who loves what he does and it shows Great job on my BMW and My ford 650 his service is great. The way he educates you on the product is true passion for what he does
They did an amazing job!!! My car was a wreck after I let my mom borrow it but they made it look just like the day I bought it from the showroom floor! I am definitely a repeat customer and would recommend them to anyone I know.
Great service, very professional and informative. Did a beautiful job on my 22 challenger.
I have to tell you how pleased I am with the sthe ceramic coating that they did on my 2022 ram 4 by 4. My truck has never looked so good and I love love the new shiny lock. These guys are incredible and I would strongly recommend if you're looking to have any type of detailed work done to your car or truck look look no further you found the place.
Look no further for a car detail business! I had two trucks detailed in and out. Mike was spectacular to work with. He did everything he said he would and that includes taking care of a few minor oversights. He is all about the customer and their satisfaction. I run my business the same way at Ultimate…
Mike and his team were great to work with. The Jeep came out great he stayed in communication with me throughout the process and followed up after I took it home. I would definitely recommend working with them. I will definitely be back in the future for other services.
The Detail Shop did an amazing job detailing my Tesla Model 3, including adding a three year ceramic coating to the entire exterior of the car and it really looks fantastic! Love the results and would recommend them highly!
Brought in my white 2010 FJ cruiser for a 2 step color correction. It's worthy to note that the vehicle is a daily driver and sat in the elements it's entire life. The paint was severely neglected only being washed weekly by automated services. TDS did a great job bringing back life to the paint. It looks as…
Incredible job! Super friendly and accommodation - I will 100% use them again !!
Highly recommend TDS! I brought in my 2022 Kia Telluride as soon as I brought it home from the dealer. Mike and his team hooked me up with partial PPF, ceramic exterior coat, ceramic protection of leather interior, full vehicle tinting and the car came out looking great! He explained everything very clearly and the…
Our cars look like newBrian and Mike did an awesome job
superb customer orientation. worth the price
Mike did a full paint correction and ceramic coating plus a full interior detail and steam clean. My car never looked better. It literally looks like it just came off the showroom floor despite its age (2009 BMW 535). He’s conscientious and his work is meticulous. His prices are very fair and he gave me a written…
We brought my wife’s Jeep Grand Cherokee in for a detail inside and out along with a gloss polish. All we have to say is WOW!! The Jeep looks exactly like it did when we drove it off the lot 4 years ago. The leather seats that started looking old now look brand new again. The entire interior looks great. Every nook…
I had detailing done and ceramic coating and it was a VERY good experience at a very good price. Very professional and knowledgeable and he made sure I understood every step of the procedure.
Great experience. Mike is dedicated to customer service and a quality job. Nice work!
I loved my Mdx before, but now after Mike did an exterior detail I love it even more! The shine on it is amazing! He was able to remove all my hard water spots and give my blue exterior a brand new look. From the moment I called, he answered all my questions and concerns. Thank you for your professionalism and attention to detail. I highly recommend him!
My car came out so Shiny I forgot my paint was metallic beautifully done inside and out highly recommend
I finally found my detail shop! I had been looking for quite a while for someone to do a paint correction and ceramic coating on my 2017 Audi TTS. It's metallic black, so needless to say I needed someone who would pay attention to detail and knows their way around working with black paint (no swirl marks etc...).…
Mike is very professional with his work, does a great job, and answered every question I had about keeping my car clean after the paint correction. I will be coming back next time I need a paint correction, and I recommend this place to anyone out there looking for a great detail shop.
Mike did an outstanding job with my interior detail! My car looked (and smelled) brand new when I picked it up - no dog hair in sight! To top it off, he surprised me with an exterior wash. I highly recommend The Detail Shop!
Mike is perfectionist perfectionis Mike is really cares about the outcome of your car. Very reliable very responsible. Would recommend him highly.
My kids brought my car to Mike to have it washed and detailed . By the time they got home it was dark and couldn’t really see . I could tell it definitely looked and felt different. When I got up the next morning to go look at my 2017 CRV I couldn’t believe it was the same car. It was spotless. I have my own dog…
I couldn’t say enough good things about this detail shop. I took a chance and chose the closest one with the most amount/highest review and I really couldn’t be more happy. They took me day of since I’ll be heading out of town and the car is absolutely gorgeous, it was a messssss before. No exaggeration. He got the…
Got my car detailed by Mikey today he did an amazing job very professional and my car looks brand new !! Highly recommend!!!! Will be going back in a few months for another cleaning !!
The car looks brand new! I was impressed by the level of cleanliness that they achieved, great job. I do think the service is a bit pricey, but It did come out great so I got my money's worth.
Amazing service and level of attention to detail! The owner is very friendly and informative about the whole process and really seems to know the ins and outs to automotive detailing and restoration. This made me feel even more confident in having my car worked on at his shop. The prices are fair and the level of…
I had both my new Dodge Ram 2500 Limited and my very rare 2014 Dodge Challenger SRT8 with shaker hood paint corrected and ceramic coated by Mike. All I can say is wow! He was meticulous, as the whole day he had a special light like a miners light on his head the whole time checking for every scratch which he…
I brought my 2020 Limited Ram 1500 to Mikey at The Detail Shop. I drove from Charlotte NC to visit as he is my brother in full honesty, but he did an incredible job. 2 stage paint correction and lifetime ceramic coating on a black on black truck. Amazing how many scratches came pre-installed by the dealership and I…
