What's included
A Full Detail is a complete interior and exterior clean. Outside, the car gets a hand wash, wheels and tyres, glass and a spray sealant. Inside, it gets a full vacuum, carpet and upholstery shampoo, a wipe-down and dressed plastics. It doesn't include paint decontamination or polishing; those are in the Complete Detail.
| Area | What we do |
|---|---|
| Exterior wash | Pre-rinse, hand wash and dry |
| Wheels and tyres | Faces, tyres and arches cleaned |
| Glass | Inside and out, including mirrors |
| Paint protection | Spray sealant for gloss and easier washing |
| Vacuum | Full vacuum, including boot, under seats and door pockets |
| Carpets and upholstery | Shampooed to lift general grime |
| Interior plastics | Cleaned and dressed |
| Interior wipe-down | Dash, console, door cards, steering wheel and touch points |
What a Full Detail is not
It isn't a paint correction or a specialist stain job. If you want gloss restored and bonded grit removed, step up to the Complete Detail. If the seats are heavily stained, or the dog has moved in, add pet hair removal or book our interior car detailing service so we can give it the time it needs.
Who it suits
Full car detailing suits most daily drivers. It's the right choice when the car is lived-in but not neglected: crumbs in the seats, dusty vents, marks on the door cards and a coat of road grime outside.
People usually book it:
- every three to four months to keep a daily driver on track
- after a road trip, a move or a busy school term
- when the car smells stale and the seats look tired
- before a family event or a long-awaited holiday
If the car was detailed recently and just needs a tidy, our Fast Detail costs less and takes less time.
How a mobile visit works
We come to your home, your workplace or your unit car park. You book online, we turn up at the time you choose, and you get on with your day. Here's what happens on the day:
- Before we start. We look over the car with you, or by phone if you're at work, and note any problem areas.
- Interior. Vacuum, shampoo, wipe-down and dressing come first so dust doesn't land on clean paint.
- Exterior. Hand wash, wheels, glass and the spray sealant.
- Finish. A final check, then we hand back the keys.
We arrive self-sufficient where access allows, and we'll confirm water and power needs when you book. In unit complexes we can usually work in a visitor bay or basement, as long as your body corporate is fine with it.
Pricing (from)
A Full Detail is from $XX for a small car. SUVs and 4WDs cost a bit more because there's more surface, and 7-seaters and vans have more seats and carpet to shampoo.
Your price depends on two things:
- Size: small car, sedan, SUV, 4WD or ute, 7-seater or van.
- Condition: heavy pet hair, mud, sand or mould takes extra time and may be quoted as an add-on.
The live price for your car shows the moment you enter its size at booking. Every size is listed on our pricing page. If the car is in rough shape and you want a price check first, call 0402 723 464.
Insured to $20 million
You're letting someone work on your car at your home, so it's fair to ask about cover. Every Full Detail is covered by public liability insurance up to $20 million. We've been doing this for 8 years.

FAQs
What is a full car detail?
A full car detail is a thorough clean of the whole car, inside and out. Ours includes a hand wash, wheels and tyres, glass inside and out, a full vacuum, carpet and upholstery shampoo, cleaned and dressed plastics and a spray sealant on the paint.
How much is a full car detail in Brisbane?
Our Full Detail is from $XX for a small car. Larger vehicles cost more, and heavily soiled interiors can take extra time. The price for your exact vehicle size shows when you book online.
How long does a Full Detail take?
It depends on the size of the car and how dirty it is. A small, tidy hatch is much quicker than a 7-seater after a camping trip. We'll give you an estimated time when you book so you can plan your day around it.
Is a Full Detail the same as a full car wash and detail?
Yes, it covers both. The wash is only the exterior part. The detail adds the interior shampoo, the plastics, the glass and the sealant, which is where most of the time goes.
Will a Full Detail remove stains?
It lifts general grime and light marks from carpets and seats. Set-in stains, like coffee, red wine or vomit, often need a dedicated stain treatment. Tell us about them when you book and we'll let you know what to expect.
Can I add extras to a Full Detail?
Yes. Popular add-ons are engine bay detailing, headlight restoration and pet hair removal. Add them at booking and we'll do them in the same visit.
