Browse 30 verified auto detailing providers in Dallas. Reviews, hours, and direct contact — free to use.
In Dallas, Texas: Auto detailing has stratified dramatically in the last decade. A basic wash-and-vacuum runs $25 to $60 and bears almost no resemblance to a multi-day paint correction and ceramic coating that runs $1,500 to $4,000+. The 223 U.S. cities with detailers on Recommended.app cover the full range, but pricing your need correctly starts with understanding the tiers. Maintenance detail (wash, interior vacuum, dressing): $75 to $175. Full interior detail (deep clean carpets, leather conditioning, headliner): $150 to $400. Full exterior detail (clay bar, single-stage polish, wax): $200 to $500. Paint correction (compound + polish to remove swirls, scratches, oxidation): $400 to $1,500 depending on correction stages. Ceramic coating (after paint correction, multi-year protection): $800 to $3,500+. Mobile detailing typically adds 20–35% to shop prices for the convenience but trades off lighting and equipment quality — a good fixed-location detailer with bay lighting catches imperfections a mobile detailer in your driveway will miss. For high-end paint correction specifically, the detailer''s portfolio in before/after photos matters far more than star ratings. Look for paint correction work shot in raking light (the standard photographic technique that reveals swirl and scratch quality on dark colors).

What to Look For
For paint correction and ceramic coating, evaluate the detailer's portfolio under raking light specifically — that's how swirl and scratch correction quality is verified. Confirm the coating brand and warranty (Gtechniq, CQuartz, Modesta, Feynlab are reputable; generic '9H ceramic' labels are usually marketing). For interior detail, ask whether they steam-clean upholstery or just shampoo (steam goes deeper). Verify mobile detailers carry GL insurance — driveway accidents are surprisingly common.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does auto detailing cost?
Maintenance detail: $75–$175. Interior-only deep clean: $150–$400. Exterior-only detail with wax: $200–$500. Paint correction: $400–$1,500. Ceramic coating (with required paint correction prep): $800–$3,500+. Headlight restoration: $50–$125 per pair. Engine bay cleaning: $50–$150. Mobile service adds 20–35%.
Is ceramic coating worth it?
For a daily driver, generally yes — a quality 5-year coating ($1,500–$2,500 installed including paint correction) eliminates regular waxing, makes washing dramatically easier, and protects paint from contaminants, UV, and minor scratches. For lease vehicles or cars you''ll sell within 2 years, the ROI is weaker. Cheap ''ceramic'' coatings under $500 are typically just polymer sealants with marketing — not durable ceramic.
What''s the difference between detailing and a car wash?
A car wash cleans the exterior; detailing cleans, polishes, protects, and restores. A maintenance detail includes interior work car washes don''t touch (vacuum, vents, leather, plastics). Full detailing involves clay bar treatment, paint correction, and protective coatings that car washes don''t even attempt.
How often should I detail my car?
Maintenance detail: every 2–4 months for daily drivers. Full interior detail: 1–2 times per year. Full exterior detail with wax: every 4–6 months for vehicles without ceramic coating. Ceramic-coated vehicles: maintenance washes monthly, full re-correction every 2–3 years depending on coating quality.
Can paint correction fix any scratch?
No. Paint correction removes scratches and swirls in the clear coat. Deeper scratches that reach the color coat or primer cannot be polished out — those require paint touch-up or repainting the panel. Most ''light'' scratches that catch a fingernail are correctable; scratches that visibly expose a different layer are not.
