Pros: 1. Great communication - gave me a text informing me he was running a little late and showed up promptly at the new time. 2. Very professional and flexible - I have a small driveway and wasn't sure if two cars would fit, but he managed to work around that. 3. Independent - John made sure everything was all set before he started working. The only time I had to go back outside was to move my car because he finished. 4. Very thorough and detail oriented. My car looked and smelled brand new! Cons: n/a read more

John was a no show three times! Extremely poor communication from him although I tried contacting via various means. I have a gift certificate for an interior/exterior detail job. Not sure if he doesn't want to honor that or is a total scammer. I see many red flags including the validity of rating, reviews and info on Yelp. He never returned any phone calls at all! Have had zero communication since last no show!!!!!!! Yelp shows 50 min response time 100% rate??? read more

John was fast and did an excellent and thorough job doing an interior detail of my car. I used to go to another detailer prior to him, however the prices of the other places started to get a little crazy and I could no longer afford that rate. I'm so thankful John keeps his prices reasonable while keeping the quality to the standard of an absolute professional. He detailed my car right outside of my window and saw him every step of the way - vacuuming, shampooing, conditioning, and applying finishing to the leather. His attention to detail is beyond any other car detailer I've ever gone to - no area was left beyond. I will certainly be recommending John to others in the area as I think he's doing a beautiful job. read more

Amazing Car Detail !!!!!! John cleaned and detailed my both cars and they look better than when I got them new !!!!! The seats on my Jeep were full of coffee stains and a long time there . Not only the stains came out but every seat looks incredibly clean !!!!! He comes right to your house and you can seat inside until he is done !!!! He always tell you what he is using and knows what he is doing !!!! Very polite and quick response anytime !!!! Definitely I will use him again and all of my friends . Thank you John for an AMAZING detail on my cars . If you need detailed your car John is your guy !!!!! read more

John did an amazing job detailing my car. My seats were covered in sand and dog hair and by the time he was done it felt brand new! He was easy to communicate with and you can tell he takes pride in his work. read more

This is an overdue review because I had this done in February, but better later than never. It's really 4.5 stars, but since that's not an option, I rounded up. I messaged around on Yelp for interior car detailing services and pricing and A1 was the cheapest by far. John was quick to respond and flexible with scheduling. John came to my apartment to clean, which made things easy. He stayed about 3.5 hours and at the end, my car looked amazing. It was like I'd just bought it again. I was very impressed. The reason I would take off half a star is because he put down paper "mats" over the floor mats, which I left on, but when I lifted them up later, I saw the floor mats weren't as clean as the rest of the car. I have some weird sticky stain on the driver's side (I stepped in something at a rest stop and it stuck to my floor mat) that was still there. It didn't look like it was even attempted to be cleaned off, so I'm a little disappointed in that, though I didn't point it out prior. Regardless, overall my car looked wonderful, and for the price, it truly can't be beat. I will definitely be a return customer when the time comes. read more

John did an amazing job! Car looks brand new! Highly recommend and will be using him again!

John was super easy to work with for scheduling and even came to my home to complete the detailing. Super reasonable pricing and pristine work. Nice guy I would hire again in a heartbeat. Thanks dude! read more

So happy with our car detailing! Spotless. Even did the trunk even though we forgot to empty it. Highly recommend!

John was so professional. He showed up on time and nothing felt rushed, he took his time and did a phenomenal job. Prices were quite fair and he stayed in communication with me the whole time... he texted me updates that i appreciated because i had a toddler napping inside. Speaking of I have two toddlers and I was so impressed with how well he cleaned the row where they sit. Honestly it looks better then when we took it home from the dealership! I will most certainly be using John again and recommending him to my family! read more

John answered my msg within minutes of requesting a quote. He comes right to the house so I could do whatever I needed to do around the house while he was working. He arrived on time and did a great job with my detail. He even gave me suggestions at the end on how to keep my seats from staining. He was very nice and accepts Venmo! read more

Needed an 06 Toyota Highlander that had been sitting outdoors for two years unused detailed inside and out. Not only did John come to my residence but he also had all of his own water and supplies. The inside of the vehicle looks absolutely brand new and the exterior is clean as a whistle. The old owner was a smoker and between the cleaning and product he used, the car smells brand new! I am going to be using John again to detail my mother's car. read more

Wow!! Will go in detail below, but the short version is: quality of interior detailing, spectacular. Quality of communication, outstanding. I wish I had a second car just so I could give him more business! Interior detailing: When John said that he could have my car looking as good as new, I honestly didn't believe him - my car has 12 years of stains and a funky smell - but apparently John can work magic! Years of coffee stains have vanished, there's absolutely no gross moldy smell remaining, and there's no smell of heavy chemicals which is a huge plus. John even texted me to ask which light scent he should use! I honestly cannot understand how a car went from looking so bad to so good... My only regret is that I didn't take before and after pictures, because it's that remarkable!! Communication: For some background, I had tried using a different service that I had found on yelp, and they had canceled my booked appointment, ignored my calls/voicemails, and tried to keep my appointment deposit! After that experience, I was very skeptical of trying to have someone come to the house, but decided to give it one more try. When I reached out to him, he instantly texted back. I explained that I had a difficult schedule and wouldn't be able to be at home during the day, but I could leave the car unlocked. He told me it was no problem as long as it didn't auto lock (very thoughtful!). We agreed to an appointment time, and he said he would let me know when he got there and when he left. First thing in the morning, when he recognized he was going to be an hour later than he had originally thought, he reached out to me to update me - amazing communication! He let me know when he began working, how the work went, and as I mentioned above, asked which scent I would prefer. I was so impressed by this communication, and how seamless the entire process was. If you don't have a car, I would recommend you get one just to have it detailed by John! Very highly recommended! read more

John did a great job making my leased Jeep look new again so I could return it. He was professional and the service was affordable. He puts alot of effort into his work and it shows. I would highly recommend A1. read more

My car has never looked so clean. And it felt clean. Who knew your car could feel softer after a detail. I'm really happy with the price and the work done. Best part is John came to me; I didn't have to go to him. Did the whole job in the garage at my work. He was really quick to respond and got the job done. I'll be using A1 again. read more

John did an outstanding job detailing my car inside & out! He was punctual, professional, very meticulous and well-priced. I would not hesitate to call upon him again. He also took the necessary COVID-19 precautions and left every surface sanitized. The fabric seats, carpets and mats were vacuumed and shampooed and all interior spaces were cleaned, protected and shined. The exterior was hand washed and any stuck-in grime was removed leaving the paint smooth. John then polished the exterior to remove light scratches, and applied a sealant that will protect the paint against the elements for up to 12 months. The wheels were also cleaned and shined. John far exceeded all expectations...great job!!! read more

John did an absolutely amazing and thorough job detailing our Lexus RX350 both inside and out. We bought it used as is so there was some work to be done but by the time he was done it looked brand new. John was available and extremely responsive. He also said he would be here for about 5 hours to get the job done thoroughly. Not that I didn't trust him, but the car didn't seem to have much mess so I assumed he'd take the opportunity to call it quits early. To my pleasant surprise he was here over 6 hours!! He said since I had mentioned that we go the car for more safety and space for our newborn, he wanted to do an extra thorough job. Fantastic service and would definitely use again. This was my first time getting any of my cars detailed and I feel spoiled by how great a job he did. read more

John was very quick to reply and he did a great job clean my car. Plus, he was cheaper than some of the other detail companies around town. I would definitely use A1 again. read more

Thank you John, for an amazing job! The interior of my car was quite grimy - to me at least. John spent about five hours meticulously cleaning the interior and exterior of my car. Even though I was stuck at home the entire time while he was working it was so worth it! Would I recommend John and his services again? Absolutely! Would I have John return and work on detailing my car again? You betcha! My husband was very impressed with the quality of his work and has been telling his friends about John and his mobile detailing service. If you're looking for someone to come to your place to completely clean your car, inside and out, John is your man! Although he arrived a few minutes late, he worked diligently until the work was completely done to his satisfaction. The only thing he needed was access to water. John, thank you again for your amazing work! The car still looks very new, a week later. read more

John was the best to work with! Not only did he give me a the best quote (by far) but he also was able to schedule me the next day! He did an absolutely incredible job on my SUV and I plan to be a repeat customer for years to come. If you need your car detailed I would recommend this company I'm a heartbeat! My car looks brand new inside (and I have a 6 year old and a dog, so that's saying a lot) and he was able to get some minor scratches of the bumper too! read more

Quick to respond. Super convenient because he comes to your place to do all the work, you don't need to provide anything, you can just wait inside your house the whole time. He did a fantastic job with my car. Very careful and did not miss any spot. The car is like brand new after his service. So glad I found him. Highly recommended read more

I was so happy with A1 Car details John replied to my request immediately and set up an appointment as soon as I was available and he came to my house so I didn't have to deal with dropping the car off or waiting. His prices are more than reasonable. Extremely nice guy too. I highly recommend him. read more

John clearly takes pride in his work! I was home during the job and could see the attention to detail (and time) to get the car looking like new. John was an excellent communicator throughout the process. I was pleasantly surprised with the great results and will definitely use him again! read more

John was awesome! So easy to work with, he came to my work and detailed my SUV in the parking lot. My car looks brand new. He even got some hard water stains out of the exterior of my car that I thought would never come out. Payment was also very easy over Venmo! Highly recommend! read more

John did an outstanding and thorough job detailing my car. Inside and out it looks immaculate. Very quick to respond to me, good communication, showed up when he said. Super convenient and he is completely mobile. Highly recommend. read more

So, okay I hate to admit this but I'm a slob. Well on a Scale of 1-10, I'm a Five, I think? I'm sure my wife will say I'm a Ten. In all fairness I work and Construction/Maintenance Job for the MBTA. Lord knows what I'm dragging into that car at the end of the day. So this is the second time that I called John to rescue me from the mess I made out of my wife's new car. I will say he has gone far above my expectations both times. He made my mess disappear and that made my wife very happy:-) The Horrified look that she once had has been replaced with a Smile. So I would recommend John because he does an outstanding Job. He's very friendly, punctual, and communicates. Must of all the quality of his work speaks for it's self. My wife's car looks show room again. Scott K. read more

Contacted John for a quote, received the quote and had the interior of my car detailed all within a day. My car has never looked so good. John was very friendly, detailed my car in my own driveway which was awesome in itself and even gave me some tips on how to keep it clean in between details. Would recommend A1 car details any day. read more

John was easy to get in touch with, professional, and did a fantastic job. He came right to the car and completed a full detail. I would highly recommend A1 Car Details to anyone with a busy schedule who needs great work done in a convenient manner. read more

A1 Car Detailing was amazing! As a single mom with 2 dogs, my car was in a pretty rough shape and the convenience of them being able to come out and clean my car right in the driveway was amazing. Car looks like brand new, which was no easy feat! I will definitely be using A1 again :) read more
