This team really stood out! The products they used have maintained a magnificent shine and cleanliness, even 6 weeks later...during the winter! I have to say that they turned my 20-year-old Honda Accord Hybrid into a very exciting vehicle to drive. Also, they did the fine details, like washing doorsills, as well as including a steam clean of the engine itself. Furthermore, they gave me quotes for additional possible work, and did not attempt to upsell me on any service. They appeared to me to be quite honest. I would highly recommend this group and I intend to go back soon.

I've gone here twice now. The first time they restored the paint on my older model car that sits outdoors. The paint was looking dingy, rusty and had the car looking very unappealing. Going through the car wash, or washing the car myself would not remove the crud that was built up on the paint. After it was washed and waxed (at a great price) by Detail Tech it looked brand new again! So my husband decided to have his Audi detailed here. He had the interior and exterior done. Their attention to detail is amazing! They had the carpet looking new, the car smelled fresh, it was shining like the first day we bought it AND the price was fair. We are very happy with their services here. We always get our car back the same day we schedule the service for. We usually use the drop-box overnight and pick up after the service is complete.

If only there were more stars to give, I would give like 50 stars for this place. So to start off I requested a quote on yelp and got basically an immediate response even way after hours which was cool. The cost of what I was looking for was upfront they didn't need any pictures although that may be different for somebody else and I was able to come in with in a couple of days. I'm always leery of places I haven't been to before with no recommended to but when I walked in I was treated really nice. This place is family owned and operated and certainly has that feel of family friendly service. I got my headlights refinished and some rim repair done. I met with Derek went over the expectations and what exactly he was gonna be able to do as far as the outcome. This was great because I'd rather know the expectations then being surprised at the end and un happy. So really appreciate that. Everything turned out really awesome, Derek went above and beyond what I was really expecting and that's pretty awesome because you really just don't get that at other places. I definitely recommend this place. It's somewhere I feel like I'm not going to get lied to and I can feel like family when I'm getting my service done here. Thanks Erica and Derek for an amazing job you guys are great and I look forward to see you guys again!

Notice the texture of the paint in the fender.

I really like Derick and Erica. Very nice people. However, I will no longer do business with them or recommend them to others. I have spend roughly $5,000 dollars with them in the past couple years and I have found the work that they do generally does not meet expectations. My 1980 corvette was taken in there for ceramic coating. The prep work ahead of the application was poor and swirls can be seen in the finish. Dereck offered to paint my 1981 corvette. I did not realize it when I accepted his offer, but this would be one of the most costly decisions I could have made. In addition to mechanical damage, the paint work is EXTREMELY bad. There are areas where there is actually no paint. There are areas where the paint is cracking and peeling just one year after painting. There are even areas where there is no paint at all. I paid in full for all of the work even though it was inferior. Derek made many promises to make corrections. One year later, he has not come through or even offered a refund of any kind. I do not recommend doing business with Detail Tech. I wish them success in the future, but I will not recommend their work and I will share my experience where appropriate. Update.... In subsequent correspondence and interaction, Erica and Dereck have suggested that poor workmanship from them is to be expected given the low price paid for the paint job..... just to be clear, detail tech is a business engaged in commerce in the east Cobb area of Marietta Georgia. In the case of the paint work; Derick is a business owner that agreed to do a job for a set price. He set the price. Not me. I agreed to his price. The work was done poorly. When the car was picked up, Dereck agreed the work was done poorly. And he stated that he would make it right. He stated that there were areas where there was insufficient paint and where there was no clear coat applied. He did not keep his word and did not return calls and text messages. In the year since this work was done, the paint on the front fenders has begun to crackle and peel as you can see in the photos provided. As for the clear coat on my other car.... There was a single spot on the hood (1inch x 2inch) that we discussed Prior to the work, that would not be able to be corrected. Several months after the ceramic job was done, Derick was looking at my car as it was displayed at a local car show. He remarked about the many swirl marks he observed in the paint and stated that he was not happy with the way the work came out and he stated that he wanted to make it right. Once again, Derick never followed up. Erica is correct, I never asked for a refund. I paid in full and trusted Dereck to make things right. I took him at his word. He did not keep his word. You will notice a common response style anytime detail tech receives a review that is not flattering, it seems they attack the customer in their comments.

Paint & wheel correction, front pain protection film, tint delete, full ceramic coating.

Fair pricing and superb attention to detail. Have had a few cars serviced here. Would recommend without reservation.

Shiny and new

I chose this location because I felt they were more detailed with their information for repairing my rim. Other places made it sound like a quick fix but this place explained in detail how the repair would be handled. My gut just told me they were the better option and you should always follow instincts. When my rim was fixed, I was texted with the time it would be ready and the receptionist even advised that she would pick up my rim herself if I needed it sooner. Since I was still at work, I advised that it wasn't necessary and I picked it up the next day. I'm so happy they had Saturday hours so I wouldn't have to take off from work. I'm very pleased with the results and my rim looks perfect.

Car post detailing and rim repair

The customer service was really great. Erica responded to my inquiry promptly and got me scheduled right away. The detailer did a great job on the exterior of my car and repaired two of my rims. The price for rim repair was comparable to other quotes I'd received, and the price of the detail service undercut some other places I've used in the past. I don't think there's a better place in the Metro Atlanta area to have both done at the same time, but I can also recommend the quality of each service individually. I will return with my car next time I'm looking for a detail. When I got there, my car was pretty dirty and the rims were pretty scraped, and it was looking great only six or seven hours later. Highly recommended.

Fantastic. Can't say enough good things about Detail Tech. They did an amazing job on my 10 year old KIA Optima. Almost showroom new after they finished. Dereck really took a lot of time and effort to restore as much as possible. I'm thrilled with how it turned out.

I had ordered the tires over the phone and made an appointment and within 30 minutes of dropping off, I walked across the street to Publix to have lunch, the wheels that arrived via FedEx to this location were installed, and it looks great. I opted not to purchase the additional $50s/tire certificate, an optional insurance package in case something were to happen to any of the tires. They don't like to call it insurance, but that's what it is. I can purchase that package later so long as a certain amount of tread is left on the tires.

I feel like a got the best deal, especially knowing DT had a far bigger selection of tires for my EV. I really appreciate the texted link with a real-time status check throughout the entire process! Love that the technician came to me in the lobby to personally let me know my car's in the bay. Unexpected. (Call me spoiled, I would have loved if they offered at least coffee & water while I waited.) And just like that!! I'm done in under 20 minutes!!

They used a satin finish that didn't match the finish of my other wheels. The tech actually claimed he "matched the center cap," which is a different material and color than the wheel face, and told me the paint "needed time in the sun" to change texture. Safety Issue: After the second attempt, the paint chipped immediately, causing a leaky tire. When I called to report this, the receptionist said chipping paint wouldn't cause a leak, which isn't accurate when the chip is on the bead seat. Avoidance & Dishonesty: I called on Monday and was told the manager, Sylvester, would call me back. I waited a full day and never heard a word. I eventually had to call corporate just to get the GM Sal's number to get any movement. The Interaction: When I finally went in for a refund, I ended up speaking directly to Sylvester. He claimed he never called me back because he was "working nights," even though the staff had confirmed he was on-site during the day when I originally called. I accepted the refund because I no longer trust this shop's honesty or technical ability. If you have a high-end vehicle or aftermarket wheels, save yourself the headache and go to a specialist who actually knows what they are doing.

Magic Mike's is the successor to the legendary "Eddie's Automotive" repair shop formerly located across the street from what is now the Sandy Springs Performing Arts Center on Roswell Rd. Not positive, but believe Mike and Eddie were partners (Eddie sadly passed away) well over two decades ago. What unquestionably lives on, however, is the high ethical values and commitment to offering high quality, friendly service to customers at extremely fair prices. This is far and away the most honest, price competitive car repair shop staffed with highly experienced mechanics - many of whom worked alongside Eddie and share his values - in the northern Atlanta area. I've paid an extra $50 to get my car towed to Magic Mike's without thinking twice and neither should you as you'll likely save hundreds of dollars by doing so - I know I certainly have several times already. Though not widely advertised, Magic Mike's is one of the very few quality shops in the area that *will* work on hybrid vehicles, though not surprisingly the service is in increasingly high demand so plan ahead. Jose has been my go to mechanic for the Prius and I cannot say enough positive things about Jose's exceptional mechanical skills, commitment to providing quality service, and unimpeachable integrity. Simply put, Jose is just an overall great guy. I highly recommend Magic Mike's without hesitation or reservation.

For internal reference, the repair order number for the workshop is 44229…read more I would like to share my unfortunate experience with this workshop. On february 2, 2025, I took my 2013 Chevrolet Sonic in for service due to an oil leak and the P2076 error code. **About Error Code P2076:** This code indicates an issue with the **Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) Valve Position Sensor/Switch Circuit Range/Performance**. It typically means that the intake manifold tuning valve is not functioning correctly, which can lead to reduced engine efficiency, poor fuel economy, and potential drivability issues. Proper diagnosis and repair involve checking the valve, sensors, and related components to ensure they are operating as intended. I would like to break down the invoice so that the reader can have a clearer understanding of the services provided: **Parts and Labor:** - **Valve Cover Gasket - Removal and Replacement** - Labor: $187.50 - Part Price: $274.99 - **Intake Manifold Tune Valve Solenoid - Removal and Replacement** - Labor: $250.00 - Intake Runner Control Part Price: $505.02 **Total Invoice Amount: $1,158.31** From the moment I picked up my car, the check engine light has come back on, once again displaying the P2076 error code. I have returned to the workshop twice, yet the issue persists--the check engine light and the P2076 error remain unresolved. Unfortunately, I now have no choice but to take my car to a more reputable workshop where they can properly diagnose and fix the issue, accepting that the money I spent here is lost. I never imagined that a workshop would find it so difficult to simply drive a vehicle for 10 or 15 miles to ensure it is in proper working condition. I lost $1,000--that can be recovered. But Magic Mike's lost my trust and earned a negative review. For anyone interested, I am more than willing to provide videos, photos, and invoices privately. Just one more negative review.
