Full car detail in Houston, TX

A full car detail in Houston cleans the inside and the outside in one visit at your home or office. A midsize car is about $260. You get a text when we arrive and before and after photos when we finish.

When a full detail makes sense

  • The car has not had a deep clean in a year or more
  • You are selling or trading in the car
  • Spills, crumbs and dust fill the interior
  • The paint feels rough after washing
  • You just bought a used car
  • Houston summer left the dash and seats dull
  • You want the car ready for a trip or family visit
  • The car still looks dirty after a normal wash

Good to know in Houston

Houston’s sun fades dashes and dries out leather, and humidity can leave a damp smell. Lovebugs, pollen and construction dust stick to paint in spring and fall. A full detail resets the car before the next hard season.

No Texas license is needed for auto detailing, but a mobile business needs insurance and must keep wash water out of storm drains. We carry commercial auto and garagekeepers coverage.
