Working in San Diego
Long dry months mean dust, sun fade and, during fire season, ash that scratches paint if wiped dry. Ask for a pre-rinse that lifts ash safely, and plan a protective coating before summer sun peaks.
San Diego is a major Naval base, biotech cluster, and the country's busiest land-border crossing into Mexico. California's range from Mediterranean coastal climates to inland Central Valley heat, combined with strict regulatory frameworks (CalOSHA, CDPR, Title 24), shapes how facilities are run across the state.

Questions
Do you take mobile car wash and detailing jobs in San Diego?
Yes. Requests from San Diego, Los Angeles, San Jose, San Francisco and the rest of California are handled the same way. Use the quote form on this page, or email [email protected] with the service, the address and the timing.
Do you offer recurring detailing?
Yes. Bi-weekly and monthly recurring plans get a 15 percent discount and lock the same detailer to your account. Cancel any time, just send us a note.
How do I pay?
We send the invoice when the walk-around is done. Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, Google Pay, e-transfer. No deposit at booking, no cash handling, no awkward end-of-job conversation.
What do you need from me on site?
Access to an outdoor water tap (a standard hose bib) and a standard power outlet within reach of the parking spot. That is it. We bring the trained detailer, the foam cannon, the polisher, the vacuum, the lighting, and all the microfibre supply.
Why hand wash and not a tunnel?
Tunnel washes are built for volume, not for the paint on your car. Every Ashford Group wash is done by hand by a trained detailer, with attention paid to the wheels, door jambs, badges and the spots automated machines skip. Slower, gentler, and a much better finish.
How long does a full detail take?
Express hand wash: about 45 minutes. Full interior plus exterior: 2 to 3 hours. Paint correction (single-stage): 4 to 6 hours. Ceramic coating: 1 to 2 days depending on prep. Your detailer confirms the final time when they walk around the car on arrival.
