Whether you like it or not, your car is bound to get damaged or look less pleasing at some point. So, despite religiously following your regular maintenance schedule, you will need a car detailing shop that you can trust. You’d want to find one that you’ll stick to whenever you need to have your car serviced. Here’s how you can tell that it’s “the one”.
Location
Well, this isn't exactly a must, but it’s definitely a plus if it’s near your place or the place you work from. This way, you won’t have to go out of your daily route if your need to drop your car to or retrieve it from the shop. Aside from that, this way you can actually check their actual working space because those detailer who couldn't give you a physical address and just offers to pick your car up and deliver it when they’re done just doesn't sound like they’ll do a satisfactory job. You want to be able to easily identify their business, and they shouldn't hesitate if you want to see the products and tools they've brought with them to ensure you’re getting a quality detailing package.
Time Commitment
If you’re the type who needs to be in a lot of places every day or simply have public transportation, you would want your car to be done in the shortest amount of time. But if the detailer works alone, chances are it will take hours before your vehicle will be ready. You don’t even know if you’ll like the finish work because a tired and rushing worker can make a lot of mistakes or straight up just cut corners on his work. Compare this to a detailing shop with a couple of workers, you’d be more likely to get a high quality detail in probably just an hour.
Are Fully Equipped?
How will a car detailing shop be able to work on any car if they don’t have necessary and appropriate tools to guarantee a professional finish on your car? Sandpaper and spray paint are basic, but they should also be equipped with tools like high-speed buffer.
They Are Well Experienced And Capable Of Doing Wide Range Of Detailing Work
Car washing won’t be the only detailing work your vehicle will need, especially if your vehicle has been with you for quite some time. So, they should be able to do things like car waxing, polishing, car sealant application, paint protection coating, etc.
Their Services Pricing
Price shopping is normal, but a price that is significantly lower than other detailer in the area is often a reflection of the quality of work you’re going to get. It is truly a situation where you’ll get what you pay for: inexperienced, low-quality products and tools, and not enough time spent to get the job right. For instance, there are detailer won’t touch a paint correction job for less than $500, because polishing is a very time-consuming project and takes a lot of training to get it right. Another thing you should expect from a professional detailer is a request to see your vehicle before finalizing their quote. Don’t expect a detailer to give you the final price over the phone because they need to see the vehicle in person and in the right light to assess if your vehicle has any unique problem areas that may require extra time or equipment.
