Which feels closest?

Three short steps: tell us about the interior, then the exterior, and review a plan. Your answers stay here when you go back.

Step 1 of 3 · Interior

What does your interior need?

Interior Choose one

Start with the cabin, seats and carpets.

All four images are AI-generated illustrative examples, not actual customer vehicles or promised results. Conditions vary; an inspection confirms suitable work.

Choose one interior and one exterior condition · 0 of 2 selected.

Start Over clears only this guide. It does not reset Book Online or change an appointment.

Thinking about ceramic protection?

Ask the team whether ceramic protection fits your goals and what preparation the paint needs. It does not remove existing scratches or make paint scratch-proof. Confirm what is already included before adding protection to a package.

A Plan That Works for You.

Discuss the arrangements with us before making plans. Choosing an option below only shows information; it does not request or reserve transport.

We open at 8 a.m., Monday–Friday.Saturdays are by request.

4820 Ivanrest Ave SW
Wyoming, MI 49418

Bring it during business hours.

Confirm your arrival with the team. An 8 a.m. drop-off gives us more time to work and may improve the chance of same-day pickup, but it does not guarantee it. Tell us if you have a deadline.

Call to discuss daytime arrival, night-before use of the drop box, special after-hours arrangements, or pickup and delivery. Confirm the timing, instructions and any fee before making plans.

All arrangements require confirmation and may involve an additional charge. Ask about timing, access, availability and cost.

Regular mobile detailing is not fully launched.

Larger or special projects, such as certain aircraft or home-cleaning jobs, can be discussed individually. Availability, team size, mileage and price must be confirmed. A routine mobile maintenance wash is not offered through this guide.

How Long Does It Take?

Choose your vehicle size and service for the current starting price. We confirm visit length with you.

Current starting price

Choose your vehicle size and service to see a starting price.

Timing is confirmed with the team after reviewing your vehicle.

The range covers elapsed scheduled work, not total employee-hours or a guaranteed drop-off-to-pickup window. Heavy soil, pet hair, extraction and drying can extend the visit or require overnight time. Wait for our completion notification before coming to collect your vehicle.

How Soon Can I Get In?

Book Online is the place to explore available arrival windows for your service. The team confirms your appointment.

Book Online opens in a new tab and may resume unfinished work. Guide choices do not transfer. This page does not show live availability or reserve a date. If your combination is not offered, call us to arrange one suitable plan.

Give Your Visit a Good Start.

The service, vehicle condition and arrival time all affect the schedule. A requested drop-off time is not a promised pickup time.

LEAVE ROOM FOR THE WORK

Some vehicles need more time.

Heavy pet hair, embedded sand, moisture, extraction and specialty restoration can require extra labor or overnight drying. Coatings may also need curing time.

Bring the vehicle at your confirmed time, and discuss any deadline before the visit. An early drop-off helps; same-day pickup is never guaranteed.

A LITTLE PREPARATION HELPS

Bring the vehicle. Leave valuables at home.

  • Remove personal belongings and valuables from the cabin, console, pockets and cargo area.
  • Tell us about spills, leaks, odors, damage and the results you’re hoping for.
  • Call if you need help preparing the vehicle or arranging access.
Talk with our team →

We look first. Then agree on the work.

After drop-off, the team inspects the vehicle and documents its condition with photos. Here’s how the next step works.

When everything matches

We continue with the agreed service.

If the inspection matches your confirmed booking and approved scope, we carry out that work. The team notifies you when the vehicle is ready.

When the vehicle needs something different

You hear the options before extra work.

We contact you about the condition, recommended options and any additional cost. Extra work begins only after your approval.

If necessary work is declined and the original service can’t be completed properly, we discuss the next step with you instead of proceeding with unsuitable work or surprising you with an extra bill.

Silence does not confirm a booking or authorize extra work or charges. Some stains, odors, scratches or damage may remain; we discuss realistic limits.

Care from start to finish.

Don’t be embarrassed. We’re here to help—whether it’s everyday dirt, a major spill or a vehicle that needs a fresh start.

01 / THE WORK

Professional tools. Thoughtful care.

Our team brings training and care to the job, choosing tools, products and methods suited to the materials and agreed service. The selected work and your vehicle’s condition determine the time.

02 / READY FOR YOU

We inspect and notify you.

Quality inspection is part of the service. We notify you when the vehicle is ready. Please wait for that notice rather than assuming the arrival window or an estimated duration is a pickup promise.

03 / PICKUP

Settle the balance. Enjoy your vehicle.

Pay any remaining balance and pick up your vehicle. Ask about the completed work, any remaining limitations and the care or curing guidance that applies to your service.

A little knowledge goes a long way

What does that mean?

Plain-language explanations now. Short Lava GR educational videos can be added here later.

What is a clay bar?

Detailing clay helps remove contaminants bonded to the paint’s surface that ordinary washing may leave behind. It is a preparation step; paint correction is a separate decision.

Correction or protection?

Correction uses polishing to improve suitable paint defects. Ceramic coating protects prepared paint and can make care easier. A coating does not remove existing scratches or make paint scratch-proof.

Why might drying take longer?

Cleaning and being ready to leave are different milestones. Moisture in carpet, upholstery or deeper materials can extend a visit. Ask about the drying needs of your vehicle.

Review timing & preparation ↓PLANNED VIDEO TOPIC · NO VIDEO AVAILABLE YET
What if none of the examples fits?

Call and describe the vehicle and your concern. An inspection can help the team recommend suitable work. Examples and photos are guidance, not a final diagnosis.

Do my guide choices carry into booking?

No. The guide works on this page only. The booking link opens the existing menu in a new tab, where you review or choose your vehicle and service and review current prices and payment terms. The team confirms the requested appointment.

Can I ask about cleaning a child seat?

Yes—ask first. Availability for the specific seat, manufacturer instructions, cleaning methods and removal/reinstallation responsibilities must be verified before the team promises any work. It is not presented as included in detailing.

Can a very dirty vehicle cost more?

Yes. Heavy pet hair, sand, moisture and restoration issues may require extra work. The team discusses options and additional cost with you before doing extra work.

A clear plan. A team you can talk to.
