Question 2

What is your most popular detailing package?

Accepted Answer

Our "Complete Detail Package" is most popular with Columbia SC customers. It includes full interior deep cleaning with extraction, complete exterior wash and clay bar treatment, tire and wheel detailing, trim restoration, and 6-month sealant protection. Priced at $275 for sedans, $325 for SUVs, and $375 for trucks, it provides exceptional value with comprehensive coverage inside and out. Most customers choose this quarterly for maintenance. The package takes 3-4 hours and leaves vehicles looking showroom-new. We customize based on condition—heavily soiled vehicles may need deep cleaning add-on.

Question 3

Can I get just interior or just exterior detailing?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We offer interior-only and exterior-only packages for customers with specific needs. Interior-only detailing starts at $125 (perfect for new cars or when exterior is fine). Exterior-only starts at $100 (great for maintained interiors or quick refresh). Many Columbia SC customers alternate—interior in summer (AC season) and exterior in spring/fall. Some prefer interior quarterly and exterior twice yearly. We customize to your needs and budget. Bundling interior + exterior saves 10-15% versus separate services, but we never push services you don't need.

Question 4

How long does a full car detailing take?

Accepted Answer

A complete car detailing service typically takes 3-5 hours depending on your vehicle's size and condition. Our basic packages take about 2-3 hours, while premium services with paint correction and ceramic coating can take 5-8 hours. At Mikahs Auto Detailing, we serve Columbia, Lexington, and surrounding areas with mobile service, so you can continue your day while we detail your vehicle at your location. We never rush the process to ensure exceptional results.

Question 5

Do you detail trucks and SUVs?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We specialize in detailing all vehicle types including trucks, SUVs, vans, and luxury vehicles throughout Columbia and Lexington SC. Larger vehicles require additional time and materials, reflected in our pricing structure. We're experienced with lifted trucks, work trucks with heavy dirt accumulation, family SUVs with child-related messes, and everything in between. Our mobile service means we bring professional detailing to your location, whether residential or commercial.
