By Ezequiel Sazo — Wash N Style, Nassau County
"How much does car detailing cost?" We get this question almost every day. The honest answer is: it varies a lot on Long Island. Here's a straightforward breakdown of what to expect in 2026.

We publish our prices because we believe in transparency. Too many detailers on Long Island make you call for a quote just to give you a number.
What Affects the Price?
Several factors can push the price up or down:
Vehicle size: A Honda Civic takes less time and product than a Chevy Suburban. Most detailers charge the same base price for standard sedans and SUVs, with upcharges for oversized vehicles.
Vehicle condition: A car that gets detailed regularly is easier (and faster) to clean than one that hasn't been touched in two years. Heavy pet hair, stains, or neglected paint can add time and cost.
Service level: There's a big difference between a basic wash and a full paint correction. You're paying for time, expertise, and product quality.
Mobile vs. shop: Mobile detailing is often the same price or even cheaper than shop-based services. We don't have rent overhead for a storefront, and you don't have to waste time dropping off and picking up your car.
What's Included at Each Price Tier?
Silver Package — $175 Our entry-level full detail. Perfect for regular maintenance every 2-3 months. You get a full exterior hand wash, interior vacuum and wipe-down, window cleaning, tire dressing, and an air freshener. Your car looks and smells fresh.
Gold Package — $300 The sweet spot for most customers. Everything in Silver plus clay bar paint decontamination, hand wax, leather cleaning and conditioning, carpet extraction, door jamb cleaning, and an engine bay wipe-down. This is a real "deep clean" for your car.
Diamond Package — $450 The works. Everything in Gold plus a one-step paint enhancement polish, paint sealant, headlight restoration, full interior deep clean, trim restoration, and complete engine bay detail. This is the detail you get before a car show or when you want your daily driver to look showroom-new.
How to Get the Best Value
- Regular maintenance: Getting detailed every 3-4 months is cheaper long-term than waiting a year and needing a deep correction.
- Bundle services: Getting paint correction + ceramic coating together saves time (and we prep the paint once instead of twice).
- Referral discounts: Ask us about our referral program — both you and your friend save.
- Seasonal promos: We run specials throughout the year, especially in spring when everyone wants their car looking fresh.
