FAQ

Answers to your questions about our 20 years of experience in Ottawa

We would love to hear from you

What services do you offer?

We handle interior and exterior detailing for cars, trucks, SUVs, and boats. That includes maintenance washes, deep cleans, salt and insect removal, sap and pollen extraction, waxing, buffing, and ceramic coating for paint and windows.

How long does a full detail take?

It depends on the size of the vehicle and the condition it's in. A standard car detail usually takes 2 to 4 hours. We'll give you a more accurate time estimate when you book.

Do you use eco-friendly products?

Yes, we use safe, environmentally friendly cleaning products whenever possible. They're effective on dirt, salt, and sap without causing damage to your vehicle's surfaces or the environment.

Can you remove sap and tree pollen from my paint?

Yes, those are two of the most corrosive things for car paint. We have a method that removes them safely without scratching or dulling the finish. It's something we've been doing for over 20 years.

Do you work on boats?

We do. Boats have different surfaces and cleaning requirements than cars, but the same level of care and attention to detail applies. Just let us know what you're bringing in.

How do I book a service?

OTTAWA TRUST

What Ottawa drivers say about us

Twenty years of detailing has earned us a reputation for honest work and spotless results. Here is what our customers say.

They got all the winter salt out from under my car. I didn't even know that was possible. The interior looked better than the day I bought it.

Regular customer, Ottawa

I had sap all over my hood for months. Tried washing it myself, no luck. They removed every bit without a single scratch. Worth every penny.

Sarah L.

Homeowner, Nepean

I drive a truck for work. They cleaned the cab, the bed, everything. Even got the mud out of the floor mats. No fuss, just good work.

Dave R.

Contractor, Ottawa

Had them do a full ceramic coat on my SUV. Two years later, the paint still beads water like it was just done. That stuff works.

Brought my boat in for end-of-season cleaning. They got every inch, inside and out. No corrosion left behind. Ready for storage.
