Two ways to get it done

Same detail, same price, whether I come to you or you drop it off.

I come to you

I pull up at your home or office and detail the car right where it sits, while you get on with your day.

All I need on site is a water spigot and a power outlet.

Drop it off with me

Rather just hand over the keys? Leave the car with me in Midlothian and pick it up when it’s done.

I’ll send you the address when we set up a time.

How long it takes

Here’s the usual time for a sedan. Every car’s different, so it’s a range, not a promise.

  • Bronze2h to 2h 15m
  • Silver3h to 3h 15m
  • Gold3h 45m to 4h

Cruise Control

Set it up once and your car stays clean all year.

Exteriors get dirty every month and interiors hold up for about three, so Cruise Control is built around that.

Why a plan beats one detail a year

  • Outside
  • Inside
One detail a year

A month or two in, it needs a wash, and by summer you’re paying for a full detail to undo the whole year.

On Cruise Control Hybrid

Every jump back to the top is a visit. The wash comes monthly, the inside rides along every 3rd visit, and the car never needs digging out.

detail day2mo4mo6mo

This is just an illustration, not measured data. Outsides get dirty in about a month and insides in about three, so Cruise Control Hybrid washes every month and brings the interior along every 3rd visit.

Priced for your vehicle
  • Priority scheduling. You get first pick of makeup slots when weather reschedules, and front of the line for spill rescues.
  • Every 4th visit, a bonus on the house. It rotates each time, like a row of seats shampooed or the leather conditioned.
  • Add-ons cost less. Members get a reduced rate on anything extra in the driveway.
  • Refer a friend, you both get $25 off. Theirs comes off their entry detail, and yours comes off your next visit as soon as they book.

Every membership starts with an entry detail so we begin at baseline. Pay however you like. There’s no contract, and you can cancel any time.

Reviews

★★★★★

Great service, great communication and competitive pricing. Josh doesn’t cut corners and caters to the specific needs of each client. I got a full detail and am super happy with the job that was done 👍🏽

Trent H.Full Detail
★★★★★

Josh cleaned my car yesterday and my vehicle looked brand new! The cost was reasonable too and I will definitely be using him from now on to get my vehicle detailed. What’s even better? He came to me and that is worth every bit!

Maria H.Full Detail
★★★★★

Finally. A mobile detailer with attention to detail. Our car is immaculate with no greasy film inside or out. Josh was respectful, punctual, and fair on pricing. And the convenience of having my wife’s car detailed in our driveway was incredible. I will definitely hire him again. Highly recommend!

FAQ

Common questions

Do you come to me?

Yes, I’ll come to you and detail your car right at your home or office. I bring my own supplies and equipment, so all I need is a water spigot and a power outlet.

Can I drop my car off with you instead?

If it’s easier to bring the car to me than to have me come out, you can drop it off at my place in Midlothian. You get the same packages and the same prices as a driveway visit. Text me or request a quote, say you’d rather drop off, and I’ll send you the address and a time when we book it.

How long does a detail take?

On a sedan, a Bronze usually takes me 2 to 2¼ hours, a Silver 3 to 3¼, and a Gold 3¾ to 4. A bigger vehicle, or one that’s in rougher shape, can take longer, up to 3¼ hours for a Bronze, 4¼ for a Silver and 5½ for a Gold.

What’s Cruise Control?

It’s my maintenance membership, with 3 plans to pick from. Cruise Control Hybrid: wash every month, every 3rd visit adds the interior. Cruise Control Full: wash + interior every month. Quarterly Full Detail: full detail, 4 visits a year. Every membership starts with an entry detail so we begin at baseline, and then the plan keeps it there. Text me and we’ll get you set up.

What areas do you serve?

I’m based in Midlothian, TX and cover the surrounding DFW towns. Not sure if you’re in range? Just ask and I’ll let you know.

Take care of your car like it takes care of you.
