Alpharetta GA: Looking For Mobile Detailer

This is my first post here, so hello! I was referred here by a friend on another Internet forum. One of the things I've giving my husband for Christmas is a gift certificate for a car detail (or two). I'm looking for someone who will come to his office park and do it while he's at work. I suspect that since there are so many other offices there, that it could also be a good marketing opportunity for the detailer.

I know they have all these drive up places, but in my experience, they rush you through there, seven guys descend on your car and get the inside as clean as they can in three minutes time, and you're done. That's not what I want. I want someone who will DETAIL the car for him with little brushes, shampoo the carpets, etc. He doesn't have a high end car, and I'll admit that he doesn't keep it very clean. Ugh. But I know he'd just LOVE a detail and I'd love to see the car looking its best. (It's a Nissan X-Terra)

Please reply and let me know if you can recommend someone honest who will do a good job. I'd ultimately like someone whose rates are reasonable enough that I could purchas a package of multiple details, rather than just one. I hope that's not asking too much.

Thanks!
Shoeless

Shoeless, to Autopia! You've definitely come to the right place to find the antithesis of the "drive up place". I find this a little funny because we're more used to the male spouse complaining about how his better half keeps (or doesn't keep) her car!

This will be a great Christmas gift for your husband!

Mike,
My car is much cleaner than my husband's although it's not perfect. I'm working on it though! haha...

I know my hubby will love his detail gift. I hope I can find a detailer that will do a good job, whose personality I like, and that I can afford to use repeatedly. We all have these "dream luxuries" that we'd enjoy if money were no object in life. Many women want a personal chef or an in-home hair dresser, but truth be told, my dream luxury service for my own life (aside from weekly massages) would be to have my car detailed monthly. Ooooooooh how fabulous that would be!

Thanks!
Shoeless

Well, stick around...we can always use more members of the fairer sex...we probably only have about 10 or 20, out of 20,000+.

Aw shucks. You guys are too kind.

Seriously, do most women not value a clean car?

I'm a college student, and the majority of the females around here have cars full of garbage, with several months worth of dirt/salt/grime covering them.
