What makes detailing cost more (or less)

Vehicle size

Sedans, SUVs, and large trucks are priced in tiers because each step adds real surface area and time. Our exterior wash runs $74.99 / $84.99 / $94.99 across those three tiers.

Interior vs exterior

Interior work is more labor-intensive than exterior. Vacuuming, shampooing carpets, and conditioning leather takes 2–3 hours; an exterior wash takes about one.

Condition

A car detailed six weeks ago costs base price. A car that hasn't been touched in three years, with sand in the carpet backing and oxidized paint, needs extra labor.

Add-on work

Pet hair removal (from $25), heavy sand or mud extraction (from $30), stain removal, and engine bay cleaning are priced separately because they're genuinely extra work.

Mobile vs drop-off

We come to you across Citrus County with no travel fee. Shops sometimes price lower per job but cost you a half-day of driving and waiting.

Frequency

Maintaining a clean vehicle is cheaper than restoring a neglected one. That's the entire reason our $139.99/month membership exists — it's less than one restorative detail per season.
