1. What Services Are Included in the Detail?

Auto detailing can range from a basic wash to a full interior and exterior restoration. Before you commit, make sure you know exactly what’s covered. Are you paying for a simple wash or a more comprehensive package that includes waxing, interior vacuuming, stain removal, and engine cleaning?

At Eagle Star Detail, we make it easy to understand what’s included in each of our services. Whether you’re opting for our Essential Detail package or something more specialized, we provide a clear breakdown of all the services involved. For instance, our Essential Detail package at $189 includes a full wash, wax, bug and tar removal, wheel cleaning, tire dressing, and an interior disinfection.

2. How Long Will the Detail Take?

Time is valuable, so it’s important to know how long your car will be out of commission during the detailing process. Depending on the level of service, detailing can take anywhere from a couple of hours to a full day.

With Eagle Star Detail, our mobile service brings convenience to you. We come to your location and perform the detail right on your driveway or at your workplace. We also provide an estimated time frame for each service, so you know when your vehicle will be ready to go.

3. What Products Do You Use?

The quality of the products used during a detail can affect not only the outcome but also the longevity of the results. Harsh chemicals can damage your car’s paint or upholstery, while high-quality products can protect them for longer.

At Eagle Star Detail, we only use professional-grade products from trusted manufacturers like OP Ceramics (Owners Pride) and Underdog Coatings. All our ceramic coatings are backed by warranties and reported to Carfax, giving you peace of mind that your vehicle is in good hands.

4. Do You Offer Any Warranties or Guarantees?

It’s worth asking whether the detailer offers any warranties or satisfaction guarantees. A reputable company will stand by their work and provide follow-up support if you’re not satisfied with the results.

At Eagle Star Detail, we pride ourselves on our 5-star rating from customers and our warranty-backed ceramic coating services. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction means that we won’t rest until your vehicle looks its best.

5. Are There Any Additional Costs?

Before you finalize your appointment, it’s crucial to ask if there are any hidden fees or additional costs for services like pet hair removal, excessive dirt, or specialty treatments.

With Eagle Star Detail, transparency is key. We provide upfront pricing with no surprises. If we encounter any additional work beyond the original scope, we discuss it with you before proceeding, ensuring there are no unexpected costs on your final bill.

6. Do You Have Customer Reviews or Testimonials?

Reading reviews or asking for testimonials can give you insight into the detailer’s reputation and the quality of their work. Customer feedback often reveals more than any sales pitch can.

Eagle Star Detail is proud to have earned glowing reviews from our clients, with a 5-star rating on Google. Our satisfied customers consistently highlight our professionalism, attention to detail, and superior customer service.
