Testimonials

On 7/17/2025 Myra Pekary had this to say:
My car had not been washed in a long time and I called First Class Detailing off the Internet ad. Gilbert , the owner, gave me a day and time and was here exactly when he said he would be to pick up the car. Returned it 4 hours later, exactly when he said he would and my car looked brand new, I mean it was spotless. I will definitely call him again. Thank you Gilbert.

My truck hasn’t looked this good since it was brand new 4 years ago. Highly recommended. Gilbert and his business are true professionalism.

On 7/17/2024 Isabelle Rieber had this to say:
I called on a Sunday while they were closed and left a message to make an appointment. I received a call from Gilbert not even an hour later to make an appointment! He was super responsive even for being closed. He did a phenomenal job! It was my first time getting my car detailed and I can say that I now have high standards due to his work. I 100% recommend First Class Detailing.

Wonderful work, wonderful people.

On 7/18/2021 Derek F had this to say:
Delayed review, but here it is. In August of 2019, my wife surprised me by taking my truck while I was out of town for work. I have a dog and three wild boys, and my 4Runner ended up looking just as good as when a dealership shows you a car, both inside and out. I've since gotten to know Gilbert, the owner, for myself. Delightful as a person and as a local business owner. 100% recommended!
