I did a lot of research and talking to folks, and concluded that Advanced Car Care hit the sweet spot. Turns out I was right. Top notch products, excellent outcome, and Owen was very easy to work with; very accommodating for schedules, and took the time to explain everything. My car looks very nice again. Highly recommended. read more

Owen is great. He has detailed my car twice and it has been excellent both times, and very reasonable considering the high level of diligence. I will definitely be using his services again. read more

Very impressed with the service and quality of work! Owen is a great guy and went way above and beyond my expectations. The photo is of my Lexus GX 460 after I had already left. It looks like a brand new car again. I'd have no problem recommending this business to anyone and I'll gladly be back for service again. Owen even gave me a ride home. He really went out of his way for me and provided the best service. I really appreciated the whole experience and so glad I decided to go there. read more

Owen is incredible. His attention to detail, customer service skills, and his desire to do the BEST job possible makes him an amazing car care guy. I cannot stress enough how happy I am with the services we got from him. He didn't try to up-sell anything, he kept my expectations reasonable (and then exceeded them by a mile!) and he was so helpful in helping me understand how to keep my car looking fantastic now that he shined it up. He detailed the outside and inside, taking great care to explain all the things we was able to do while keeping the cost under-budget. I look forward to bringing all of my vehicles back to him and recommend him without hesitation. THANK YOU, OWEN!!!! read more

Owen was very responsive and transparent (both with pricing and what results were realistic for my older car with water spots). He went above what was expected and had some extra time so worked on a few spots on my seats despite the job being exterior only. Clean shop. Highly recommend this place for auto detailing in Chico!! read more

I took my 2015 Rav4 to Owen last month. He got out a few long deep scratches and all of the hard water spots on my paint along with a protein drink that had stained my seat probably 3 years ago and my whole car looked brand new when he was done! I couldn't be happier! If you want your car actually detailed then this is the only place to go. Owen is an absolute perfectionist and a super friendly & professional guy to do business with. Everyone else in the area who claims to "detail" really just washes your car for close to the same price and they miss tons of stuff. Trust me, it's well worth it to take your car to him because he will actually detail it! read more

Advanced Car Care - 2015 Rav4... almost a month later and still just as shiny. - Auto Detailing Near Me - Chico, California

I brought my Land Rover here after driving through an orchard and getting dozens of scratches on the front, down the sides and on top of the vehicle. Now I literally can't even tell it ever happened! Not only that but the price was EXTREMELY reasonable. Owen is extremely nice and easy to work with. The shop is very clean and he does fantastic work. I don't say this lightly; I will never go anywhere else! read more

Brought my Buick Encore in, and it was a mess. Our sprinklers on my passenger side had been hitting the car for months, building up hard water deposits. I brought the car in to Owen, based on Yelp reviews. He is every good thing said on those reviews. At the same time I had the interior and engine cleaned. It is like the new car I had bought, in 2016, when driving it off the dealer lot. read more

My favorite detailer I've ever hired. My carpets were so bad he took the seats OUT to clean everything appropriately. Owen went above and beyond and communication was prompt and professional. Stains were lifted out if my tan carpet that no one else had been able to remove! read more

I wouldn't even have left a star but yelp made me. But I did schedule an appointment with Owen at advanced car care but due to unforeseen circumstances I had to cancel the day prior, I called the phone number provided on yelp and left a voicemail and apologized for having to cancel my appointment. I was going to call back and reschedule until I get a unexpected message on yelp from Owen stating that I was a no show and rude. So any future customers or people who's thinking about doing business with Owen just know he will leave you a message saying your rude and accusing of being a no show if you have to cancel prior into looking into his voicemails. read more

My 2008 Rav4 was in desperate need of some love and attention and I found just the place to get it. Owen took the time for me to show him the places I was ultimately concerned about (passenger seat and floor mats) and he assured me he would do the best he could. Not only do my seats and weathertech mats look brand new but my whole car looks spotless. I appreciate his eye for detail and he doesn't gouge you like most other places. You can tell he is very passionate about his work and takes great pride in it. Side note he also gave me a ride to my class so I didn't have to call an uber. Thats what I call great service! read more

The owner is a super nice guy, really fair prices, great work, and very accommodating with my availability. Will definitely be bringing my car back for future detailing and mishaps that come up. read more

Extremely pleased with the experience I have received at Advanced Car Care!! Owen was able to help me at such short notice. He was completely booked up and managed to squeeze me in that day and the next. He even came in on Saturday, his day off. My jeep looks better than it did when I had purchased it from a dealer a few months back. Not to mention, he gave me a GREAT deal. I am so happy that I found this detail shop right before my cross country trip in two days!! He did such a stellar job that I will DEFINITELY be a returning customer when I come back. I highly recommend everyone to call him first. Owen is efficient and knowledgable. He gives outstanding customer service and results. read more

Advanced Car Care - So pleased with Owens detail! - Auto Detailing Near Me - Chico, California

Confused & disappointed. Explain both by phone & in person the services I was needing, Owen reassured me that all was fine. I prepaid for the services but when the vehicle was presented he seemed confused & blamed me for the confusion. Apparently the detail work was good but the customer service was terrible. Perhaps Owen only likes to work on newer high end vehicles but he was told exactly what was wanted done & he knew the vehicles age & condition when accepting the work order. Won't be going back nor recommending his services. Responding to Owen's reply, No hurt feelings just disappointed. When I met with you & paid for services to be rendered you were very polite & helpful, I had no problems paying hundreds of dollars in advance for services to be done. Unfortunately customer treatment was poor & the work was just "good". read more

Advanced Car Care did an amazing job with car! It looks brand new! His pricing is competitive with other businesses but he eye to detail is great! I have a nice car and want it to look it's best! The interior is light in color and came out nice and clean. All the controls on the dash are clean and shiny! Owen was super nice and easy to work with, the exterior looks fabulous! read more

Advanced Car Care - Car looking great thanks to Owen! - Auto Detailing Near Me - Chico, California

Owen the owner is very detailed oriented an excellent personality trait for someone who details vehicles. I have been taking my 2007 F150 to Owen for a few years now and he does an amazing job that lasts the test of time. Over two years ago he applied some type of wax/protectant to my paint and today in the rain my 17 year old paint job looks new. I get complimented on how my truck looks often. The price is very reasonable compared to other detail operators some who only clean and don't really detail anything. You cannot go wrong here. read more

Thanks Owen for taking care of my car today. I drove in from Dallas, Texas and tomorrow is our daughter's wedding. Amazing detail - if I lived here I'd be a regular! read more

I took my car in here to Owen and got the best service I have ever gotten. He is a very honest guy and does fabulous work . I got a porcelain wax put on my car that made it better than brand new. I recommend everyone who needs a polish on your car to check this place out first. You will go no where else after talking with him. read more

Very impressed with the quality of the work . I would definitely recommend Owen if you want great customer service and high quality detailing. My wife also booked an appointment to detail her car. Highly recommended! read more

Owen is real good guy, gave him a call to get a quote on detailing my is250. We ended up talking for about 20 mins where he really just answered all of my diy questions and even gave me recommendations on products I should buy. Extremely knowledgeable and beyond helpful, WOULD RECOMMEND THIS GUY TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A QUALITY DETAILING. read more

If you need an experienced technician of car care to give your car what it needs to stand out, I highly recommend Owen and Advanced Car Care. I met him over at his facility after making an appointment and he went above and beyond to get my Isuzu Rodeo ready to sell. I really appreciated his honesty, candor and friendliness. I was ready to pay to have a full detail but he advised against it as he felt it would not be worth the investment... That's right, turned down the $$ to recommend exactly what I needed to make the sale. He steam cleaned and shined the engine and cleaned and buffed the nasty water spots off of the black SUV. I got $400 dollars more than what Owen thought I would get all due to his hard work! So if you have a car that needs professional care or a car you need to sell call Owen, get an appointment and reap the benefit! read more

I brought my wife's vehicle to Owen based on his feedback and can tell you we were AMAZED at his work. My wife and I were blessed to have found him. He was friendly, outgoing, professional and did an amazing job on my wife's minivan. He did such an outrageous job i brought him my Honda Accord and now we both have NEW LOOKING VEHICLES AGAIN, INSIDE AND OUT. Her minivan was surrounded by "Hard Water Spots". She was depressed and discouraged every time she had to drive her car. It was so bad that the mirrors were caked in that white lime like substance that had formed a crust on the mirror and obstructed her view. When we arrived to pick up the vehicle i thought it was a NEW car. What a beautiful job.!!!! Now my wife loves getting into her van again and feels like i just got her a new vehicle. Well worth the price. Thank you again Owen. NY Steve , read more

Having just moved to chico I have yet to establish my favorite spots for eating, drinking, hiking etc. One of those things I've been looking for is a good place to get my car washed. I don't always have the time to wash it myself so I tried scrubbs several times and none of those times was I completely satisfied with my car. In hopes of finding a better place I called Advanced Auto Care and asked if he was able to wash my car. I drove over there a few minutes later and got right in. As soon as I pulled up I met Owen the owner and he was very nice. I told Owen what I was looking to get and he went above and beyond. I will recommend this place to anyone and I am now a completely satisfied customer who will return again and again. read more

Better late than never :) Sorry Owen! Had my 14 Subie detailed by Owen quite awhile ago and failed to post a review- but now here it is because he deserves it! Owen went above and beyond to care for the paint on my car. He took my budget in mind (about $200 for outside only- my choice) and my car looked fabulous when I picked it up. He put a long lasting protectent on the paint as I, like most of us, fail to take the proper care of the paint as we concentrate on the engine services. And he was able to take out most of the scratches too! Highly recommend and I will be back for sure. Thanks again Owen! read more

Owen went above and beyond to remove oxidation on the windows/black window frames on my new X5. Also returned for a complete ceramic coating because the coating that the dealership sold me was worthless; the car looks better now than when I drove it off the lot! I highly recommend Owen, and I will definitely be a repeat customer. read more

Excellent attention to detail. The polishing took out some scratches I thought were there for good. The carpets look new after Owen got done with them. The lights are polished and brighter. Interior looks amazing even by my high standards. I take great care of my car and I was shocked how much better it looked when I picked it up. read more

I originally took in my pickup to see if Owen could buff out the hood. My truck has is black and has over 200k miles on it so the paint was needing some love. Owen went above and beyond at trying to get my hood looking as good as he possibly could. I recently took our other vehicle in to get detailed. This car hauls the kids and was absolutely filthy inside. Owen got all the stains out of the seat and had the interior looking new again. The outside of the vehicle looks shinier then when the car was bought. He did an amazing job and doesn't gouge you on the price. I highly recommend Advanced for all detailing. I will definitely be a return customer. Thanks Owen! read more

I brought my truck to them to do a spot treatment on the carpet. Professional strength body wax had spilled, and after reading dozens of articles online about how there was no way this was coming out of the carpet I felt as though it was a lost cause. Although this was a unique stain he did some research beforehand, and was able to treat the spot with multiple different techniques that in the end turned out amazing. The entire experience was excellent, he worked around my schedule and came in early on a Saturday to squeeze me in, was knowledgeable, friendly, and did an overall great job. Highly recommend this business!! read more

We had our car detailed over a mos ago and I got really sick, so I couldn't do the review until now. It was our first time getting a car detailed and it was well worth it. We read all the reviews and decided to go with Advanced Car Care and it was a great first time experience. Also, Owen was fantastic! You can see that he enjoys doing what he does. I loved how he was willing to work on a Saturday for us because I didn't know what my schedule will be since I was going to start volunteering for a school and my husband works M-F, so he understood that and made an appointment for us on a Saturday. We were very appreciated that Owen did that. Furthermore, we went in not expecting anything and Owen did made sure that we understood everything that he was going to do on the car before we left. Owen gave us a time frame and got it done within that. When we went back to pick up our car, we were surprised that he washed the exterior and did some extra work on the window (we only wanted the interior done). We were so glad that we chose this place instead of any other. Now our 4 year old car smell and looks like new again. We will definitely go back to Advanced Car Care again. Thank you for the great service! read more

Owen does an amazing job! I have a black car that was detailed by the dealer when I bought it. I was so disappointed with all the swirls it had. A friend told me to take my car to Owen and I am so glad i did. Black is such a hard color and Owen transformed the car, like it just came off the showroom floor. No swirls. Thank you so much Owen. read more

Owen does beautiful work and takes pride in doing a great job. My car looked better than when I bought it, 2 years ago. Stunning shine!

I loved the nice way they cleaned my car it was so dirty when I got there. I am so happy my car is so clean they really take their time and do a great job read more

Owen must be a magician because the transformation of my car was nothing short of a miracle. My car was covered in Paradise sap all over the exterior and the inside was very dirty from years of hauling two children around. Owen was very good at letting us know the time frame and expectations of what he would be able to do with my car. He definitely exceeded these expectations. He is very detail oriented and clearly loves what he does. He was very personable and easy to work with and we will definitely be a returning customer whenever we are in need of detailing!! read more

Ive never had a car detailed before, so thought I'd give it a try. I mean, I can use a buffer on my car, so why hire someone? Well, now I know why ! Cause this guy has the skill, tools, solutions and hard work to make my car look fantastic!! Yippee ! Thanks for saving me from an expensive and ugly paint job. The car looks great. read more

Owen has great attention to detail, which makes for beautiful work, and has great customer service as well! He'll take care of you like he did with me! He can do anything from the fancy cars to my simple Toyota Corolla! read more

Best place in town by far! Owen always does such a good job and he does it quickly, efficiently, and with incredible attention to detail. My car had just been broken into and was an absolute WRECK and he had it back to me looking better than new in under two hours! If your car needs complete revamping and some intense TLC, you would be putting it in good hands here. They are honest individuals with fair prices for their services and they won't try to rip you off. They have the necessary equipment to work with all different types of fabrics/material on the interior of your vehicle as well as flawless car wash techniques. Owen went above and beyond to the point me not being able to believe my eyes when he showed me the finished product. Advanced Car Care will not disappoint and is the only place in Chico I trust with my car. read more

Service was subpar, carpets were dried by my heater in the car, this ended up costing me $800 in mechanical repairs to my heating and air system. He ran my heater in over 100 degree weather, long enough to melt the AC clutch! I called to let him know that I went to my ASC certified mechanic, the same mechanic serviced my AC 2 weeks prior and was working sufficiently when I drop it off. He said "let me stop you there, I'm not paying for your AC!"Not once did I ask him to pay for my AC. I did not want him to pay for it. I tried talking to him about it and he hung up on me...he also hung up on my wife when she tried to calmly talk to him and tell him we were not looking for money, and that we just wanted to let him know what had happened while our only vehicle was in his care, he hung up on her several times acting like a child, yelling at her, refusing to let her speak, telling her she had no idea what she or my mechanic were talking about and making excuses for his lack of common sense. His customer service and basic respect for customers is greatly lacking. The detail itself was subpar! However I am an ex detailer and I'm hard to please. Didn't polish my head lights (something we specifically talked about) he actually made them worse by clear coating them. Now I have to wet sand all that junk off. Before he actually did the job we also talked about the outside glass and the water spots. One window was more damaged and I told him,that window would need a bit more work. He totally forgot that window! All the dirt he left in my carpets has now come to the surface, he did not towel the carpets as he left behind a lot of dirt! read more

Fantastic service and great job on the car - it looks new! I just purchased a used car and wanted to have the water spots and other exterior marks and scrapes cleaned up, and I wanted to have the paint protected as well as possible as I had paint fade on my last vehicle so this is of particular concern. Advanced Car Car was recommended by a couple of people so I decided to give them a try. It took a couple of weeks to get an appointment - yes this place is busy which tells you know how good they are. Owen and his crew did an amazing job. The outside looks fantastic and some of the marks I didn't think they could remove are gone (sap on the roof - gone) plus the paint looks very shiny and new. The interior was a challenge with the leather being on the lighter side but it looks much better than it did and the rest of the interior is spotless. I look forward to having them help me maintain my car for as long as I own it. read more
