Interior or exterior only

  • Extreme Interior only — from $150
  • Extreme Exterior only — from $220

Add-ons

  • Pet hair, sand or excess dirt — $50–$100
  • Hood lining steam clean — $60–$80
  • Upholstery shampoo — $50–$100

Quoted individually

Two jobs are not on the list, and deliberately so. Paint work depends entirely on the paint.

  • Polish & Wax — Machine polishing that removes swirls and restores gloss and depth.
  • Ceramic Coating — Bonded protection against salt air and UV for up to five years.

Quoting a headline price for these would be guessing, and you would only be told the real number once the car arrived. Send photos instead and Jayden will give you a figure that holds.

What moves the price

Size and condition, in that order. A car that gets detailed twice a year sits at the bottom of every band. One that has carried dogs, kids and beach sand for three summers sits at the top, because the work is measured in hours.

Pricing questions

How much does car detailing cost in Ballina?
Jayden publishes his prices, which most detailers do not. A Basic Detail is $110 for a small car, $130 large and $140 extra large. A Full Detail — the complete inside-and-out reset most people mean by detailing — is $180, $200 and $220. An Extreme Detail, for vehicles that have been genuinely lived in, is $300, $350 and $400. Interior-only work starts at $150 and exterior-only at $220. Cut and polish and ceramic coating are quoted individually, because the price depends on the condition of the paint rather than the size of the car.
How long does a full car detail take?
A Basic Detail takes two to three hours and a Full Detail three to five. An Extreme Detail is usually a full day, because the interior work is the slow part. A cut and polish is a one to two day job since the paint is corrected in stages, and ceramic coating runs two to three days because the coating has to cure before the car goes back on the road.
Why do you need photos before quoting?
Because condition drives the price far more than the make and model does. Two identical cars can need completely different work depending on how they have been used and cared for. A few clear photos let Jayden quote accurately the first time, instead of guessing on the phone and then revising the price when the car arrives.
What is the difference between a Basic, Full and Extreme detail?
A Basic Detail is upkeep for a car that is already looked after: hand wash, wheels, vacuum, glass and a wipe down. A Full Detail adds decontamination, wax or sealant, and proper interior work including the boot, door jambs and seat rails. An Extreme Detail is for vehicles that have been genuinely lived in, with deep extraction and shampoo, heavy contamination removal and paint decontamination. If you are unsure, send photos and Jayden will tell you the smallest one that gets the result you want.
Will detailing help when I sell my car?
Consistently, yes. Presentation drives both the number of enquiries a listing gets and how confidently a buyer negotiates. A corrected, protected car photographs dramatically better and signals that the vehicle has been looked after, which is exactly the impression that holds your asking price.
