5 star experience with Josh. Everything he said he'd deliver on - he did. I got an interior detail and requested a pick up/drop off of my car at my work and coordinating that was seamless and he communicated with me throughout so when the time to complete took a bit longer than he initially quoted I wasn't surprised. Then he also let me know when he was bringing it back and I was able to quickly step out and meet him to grab my keys. The car looks and smells great and I like that his pricing is very simple. No photos of the condition needed, no upcharges, everything included (including shampooing of seats) for the price listed for the car size presented. It could just be me but the seats felt a bit damp, but I'm not knocking off a star for that, I have the windows cracked so hopefully any residual moisture will dry overnight or maybe I'm nuts and there is no moisture left. I dunno. I do have faith that if anything is wrong, he will make it right. He doesn't have a perfect rating for nothing.

Customers describe the service as thorough, noting that vehicles often appear cleaner than when originally purchased. Recurring themes include professional communication, punctuality, and the ability to remove persistent stains, pet hair, and odors from both interior and exterior surfaces. While most reviews are positive, one low-star critique alleges that the work was incomplete and that the business took payment in advance without demonstrating the final results.

Josh was pleasant and professional. He did an excellent job detailing my car inside and out. I will definitely hire again. Here's some pics of his detailing.

I highly recommend Josh and his services! My partner recently paid off his Crosstrek so I gifted him a detail package from Josh and we are thrilled with the results! This car had been living in Southeast Alaska for 4 years so the job was definitely challenging with all the tree moss and husky fluff. The car looked…

Took my husband’s car for a surprise detail. The Josh Wash gave us a new clean car. Super happy! :D
Got an interior detail after a pet accident and an attempt to haphazardly resolve it... I tried everything short of ripping my car apart. Josh was able to get the mess and smell out, all the while cleaning up all of the other messes inside of the car. I kid you not the car literally smelled brand new fresh from the…

I highly recommend Josh and his services! My partner recently paid off his Crosstrek so I gifted him a detail package from Josh and we are thrilled with the results! This car had been living in Southeast Alaska for 4 years so the job was definitely challenging with all the tree moss and husky fluff. The car looked better than the day it was bought at the dealer! Can’t thank Josh enough for the care and attention to detail he has! I will be using his services exclusively moving forward!
Glad I could help!
