Need a detail in SW Florida

I've been in FL for a while, but my detailer just disappeared , need my 997 turbo done, haven't gotten a good cleaning for a few month., you guys know any reputable detailers ? preferably a business that specializes... I am asking for an actual business vs a private face because I've had an incident with my wifes m6 via a "private" detailer, but that's another story...

Thanks

Not sure where he is in respect to your location, but give Todd Helme a call. From his work I see on the forums, he's got the right skills and passion.

Todd of Bella Macchina is the guy you want. Can't say enough about him or his work, he truly sets the standard for detailers and paint correction.

I'd be careful just googling and recommending detailers. Anyone can google, but you have to KNOW the people you're recommending. I've seen many horror stories of so-called "detailers" working on cars they shouldn't be allowed to.

Just do your homework. See referrals, look at the shop or detail truck, make sure you see the detailer's set up of products and tools. A messy shop or work truck can mean the detailer is busy working a lot or just a messy person. I'm guilty of the busy part but try and clean things up in my truck on the weekends. But my tools and products are always in the right place and organized.

Ask to see their insurance policy by a reputable company and make sure they're covered in case they damage you car or if a neighbor slips and falls on the driveway where your car is being detailed.

A reputable detailer is recommended by many, has proper liability insurance, should be knowledgeable about his/er products and your car, shouldn't give you a quote over the phone without seeing your car, etc.

Hope this helps.

Glad I could be of assistance. Just remember you get what you pay for. It's less expensive to have 2 great details a year and maintain the car yourself, than to get a cheap detail every 2-3 months.
