Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need to see My Car / boat / etc. in order to quote?
No, the booking is based on the appointment duration. The duration is set to enable all inclusions to be completed for the majority of vehicles, boats, etc. If a vehicle has a number of problem areas that take longer to adequately address (e.g. heavy levels of soiling, wide spread tar spotting, severely neglected wheels, etc.) then subject to weather, lighting, etc. I will either work back longer (or schedule another time to return) to complete the job to an appropriate standard given the starting condition of the vehicle.
Please note: Not having to travel to quote on each job saves a lot of time and money which can be passed on to customers, I would certainly need to charge a lot more if I was quoting of every job! Also having to travel and quote on jobs would reduce the time I could spend on the actual detailing of customer's vehicles.

I'm not sure what service and options to choose - can you advise?
Absolutely, we can certainly discuss over the phone and then based on that we can book a 'placeholder' level of service and options and then finalise what we will performed once I am on site and had an opportunity to inspect the vehicle or leisure craft. If time permits it is usually possible to add additional options to the service if that is what is agreed, which is why it is always a good idea to book a service as early as possible in the day to provide additional time for any additional options.
Will that stain, scratch, odour, etc. come out?
When on-site I can inspect the vehicle in order to advise on the likelihood that any defect or problem area will be able to be addressed by the available options. For example often scratches on paint are too deep (and require a respray to properly address), some fabric stains (e.g. spilt oil, etc.) are just too severe and some odours may be just too pervasive to be completely eliminated. So it should be understood that there is no guarantee that any defect or issue will be be able to be addressed. For physical defects such as scratches, seat stains, etc. safety is the key factor - you don't want me to burn through paint, metal or leather, etc. attempting to fix a problem only make the problem worse - and this unfortuantely can happen. When dealing with defects or problem areas my objective is to address the issue to the best that it can be within an adequate safety margin and so on that basis customers can feel comfortable in proceeding.
What about the weather e.g. What if it rains, WORKING IN FULL SUN? ETC.
Working outdoors has many advantages such as water run-off, excellent light - especially for vehicle interiors, working space around the vehicle, not having height restrictions when working on the roof of high vehicles, etc. Obviously it is true that for mobile detailers sometimes the weather can be an issue, of course if you can provide an undercover work area e.g. a shed, double carport or garage, then the job can be completed regardless. But generally speaking when working outdoors weather impacts are easily managed. For example for rain interruptions by working back longer to make up lost time once the weather has cleared or rescheduling a time to complete the job at no additional charge, or for hot sun by cooling the surface prior to working a section or for vehicles under 2m in height using a portable marquee to provide shade.
how much? Ok, let me think about it and I'll get back to you.
The good news for customers is that there is a wide variety of suppliers to choose from offering everything from a quick 'splash and dash' to a show-car level of detailing and multi-stage paint correction. The bad news is that such a wide range of choice can make matters confusing for customers.
The first thing to clarify is do you want a clean - typically regularly undertaken as part of a maintenance routine for your vehicle, or a detail - typically undertaken periodically where the time invested in the service is longer, the attention to detail greater and the service includes aspects that are not included as part of regular maintenance cleaning. If you are simply after a quick clean then prices offered for a proper detail may seem expensive. If you are after a proper detail then the level of service delivered for what in essence might be a quick clean with some extras (even if it is called a 'detail') may disappoint.
The second thing to understand is that being a service means that by definition the quality of the service provision varies from one provider to another. Similarly what is included in a given service, the time invested, the skill and experience of using tools such as a machine polisher, the knowledge of various compounds and polishing techniques, etc. will vary greatly. Given this it can be very frustrating to find customers shopping around on price like everyone's 'cut and polish' is the same regardless of who you choose?
As well as considering the price customers would be advised to talk to the detailer who will do the work (not just a call centre), if possible review examples of work of that detailer, even if this is at least viewing a gallery of images on a website, and probably most importantly of all read customer reviews of the detailer in order to make a decision which is more informed than just the price alone. I always recommend customers make their purchase decision based on overall value for money and not just who will do it the cheapest.
