    Before: not REALLY clean.. seats had these stubborn stains that no one can get rid of..  After: no stains! Looks and smells great!
    Ting L.

    First, I don't typically write super long reviews but this local business deserve some recognition. I recently decided to sell our car; while the vehicle is in good condition it needs a little TLC. Of course, I jumped on Google and Yelp and started my search. And while plenty had good reviews, it was actually quite difficult to get a quote and all of them required me to drive leave my car or wait for hours while the car's being cleaned. Well, all EXCEPT for Dan's! Dan's page was one of the top results since it had 5 star reviews, still, I wasn't convinced. I looked at all the pictures on this page and thought to myself, "these are some high-end cars, no way they're going drive all the way to clean my car or even if they do it's going to be too expensive". Well, I was wrong. I called the listed number and spoke with a nice gentleman named John. I explained exactly what I wanted - to clean some stains on the seats and the carpets vacuumed. John was able to give me a very reasonable quote within minutes and said they could even drive to where I'm located and clean my car within hours! I received a text about 30 mins before technician's arrival and another text when he arrived - who happened to be Dan himself! Now I'm going to stop "talking" and give you a couple of minutes to check out the before/after photos.. Good work speaks for itself and it's true they go above and beyond for the clients. Our car is not high-end, classic, or luxury, it's just a normal car. However, Dan treated the car as if it was. After the detail, the car looked amazing, smelled amazing, and I'm even a bit hesitant to sell it now that it looks brand spanking new! Oh btw, there's small gift at the end of the service! This local business was established to make auto-detail an easier experience for clients - they come to us and we get to stay at home or work and carry on with our day. The time-saving factor alone is worth the money, not to mention the amazing job they did. TL;DR - I'm not taking my business anywhere else! Honestly, these people are very professional and do amazing work, you should give them a try.

    I had interior cleaned/shampooed and after the seats dried, I can clearly see they did not get out all of the stains out.

    It really couldn't get easier or better. I'm impressed! I know a bit more about the car business…read morehaving been around dealerships and my late husband owning a shop. For me years ago repairs were easy, I just gave him the keys. If we didn't it, he'd send it off to someone and it would get done. We weren't a body shop, nor a detail place, but we knew people. But that was some time ago. Those people are now retired or have passed on. So I'm left to my own resources, asking around and internet research (reviews.) I bought my SUV and there was a slight gap at the bumper after about a month, I did take it back and they just pushed it back. Never looked right. but it was okay. Well now this time I did it backing into a garage there was this wrought iron basket, not mine. My bumper caught it and it pulled away. It looked bad and couldn't be ignored. What's damaged, I don't know, do I need a new bumper because something got damaged behind it, again, no clue. I came across Carrectly, was impressed by the reviews, also was impressed by the pics of Dixon P's bumper repair. So I sent an email requesting a quote for the repair. Oliver replied fast with an accurate quote and information. He also answer all questions I had. I decided to give them a try. So glad I did! How much time is wasted on dropping off your vehicle? With them none, same for pick up. Yuri was so pleasant and helpful, I inquired about getting a detail, specifically the inside. It really needed it. He gave me some info, but said I should speak to Oliver. At first I was going to go mini, but then went full. When I inquired he told me what they do for each, there was no upsell, no pressure. I will say it looks beautiful. I also had them do some touch up where the paint came off. The gave the exterior a very good wash. I'm very pleased with the whole process, and recommend them highly. I'm proud to be seen with my vehicle again, instead of walking away quickly. You know how it is when you ride looks trashed. So glad I made this choice.

    I asked for a quote to install 2 sway bar brackets and a install sway bar then connect end links to…read moresway bar then to frame in the past this would have taken me 2 hours to do, but recent surgery now prevents me. they quoted me 6.5 hours work and a wheel alignment for so unknown reason since the work i was asking them to do has nothing to change rear wheel alignment but charge $245.00 plus $15.47 parts also $55.00 shop fee ! thats over $1400.00 for a 2 hour job

    I've given this place multiple chances because it's conveniently located and, judging by the…read moreconstant line of cars, clearly popular. But at this point, I can't justify going back. The core issue isn't just that there's always a line--it's that the line is chaos. There's no clear system, no active management, and no sense that anyone is responsible for keeping things orderly. Cars cut in front of each other, people inch forward aggressively to claim space, and what should be a straightforward wait turns into a stressful, almost competitive experience. I've seen more than a few tense exchanges between customers, and it completely undermines what should be a routine errand. To be fair, the staff seem young and well-intentioned. They're not disengaged or rude. But they also don't appear trained or empowered to manage the flow of traffic or address the disorder. When things back up--which is often--there's no visible effort to step in and create structure. It feels like everyone is just reacting rather than running an actual system. And then there's the wash itself, which is... fine. Not terrible, but certainly not worth the time, frustration, and unpredictability of the experience leading up to it. For a place that clearly has high demand, you'd expect a more polished operation and a better end result. What's most frustrating is that this feels fixable. A clearly defined queue, active line management, and some basic customer flow discipline would go a long way. Instead, it's left to chance--and the result is a place that feels stressful and, frankly, unpleasant to visit. There are too many other options out there to justify dealing with this level of disorganization.

    Now you go through the car wash to have a clear, grease-like paste smeared all over your vehicle,…read morewhich further smears on all your windows, creating a safety hazard; yet, the management is doing nothing about it. You can go through the wash two times to have the same experience - it does jot remove the grease-like paste, which is all over the hanging washer pads which hit your vehicle. Shut this place down again, do a thorough cleaning, including replacing ALL of the hanging washer pads. Ridiculous this place still operates as it does!
