Question 1

How much does car detailing cost in Columbia SC?

Accepted Answer

We use simple flat pricing that doesn't change with your vehicle's size. An Exterior Detail starts at $100 and an Interior Detail at $200. Our Basic Detail—a full interior and exterior with wax—is $225, and the Factory Reset deep-clean package is $400. For paint protection, paint correction starts at $599 and ceramic coating starts at $999. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Mobile service is included at no extra charge within 20 miles. First-time customers receive 10% off, and we offer package discounts for regular maintenance. Exact pricing provided during booking.

Question 2

What is your most popular detailing package?

Accepted Answer

Our Factory Reset is the most popular package with Columbia SC customers. This deep-clean package includes full interior deep cleaning with extraction, complete exterior wash and clay bar treatment, tire and wheel detailing, trim restoration, and sealant protection. Priced at a flat $400 regardless of vehicle size, it provides exceptional value with comprehensive coverage inside and out. Customers who want comprehensive care on a smaller budget often choose our Basic Detail at $225, a full interior and exterior with wax. Most customers schedule a detail quarterly for maintenance. The Factory Reset takes 3-4 hours and leaves vehicles looking showroom-new.

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 $200 (perfect for new cars or when the exterior is fine), and exterior-only starts at $100 (great for maintained interiors or a quick refresh). Our Basic Detail bundles both for $225, so combining them is the most economical choice. 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, and 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. We charge flat rates regardless of vehicle size, so a truck or SUV costs the same as a sedan. 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.
