He was meticulous in his work and devoted to making sure we were 100% satisfied before he left. I cannot express how thrilled we are with the results! Our car is gorgeous! The package we chose also included interior protection as well as glass. Alec is very pleasant to work with. He arrived when he said he would. The estimates he gave us for time and cost were accurate with no last minute surprises. He has several packages available and will work with the customer to make sure they get what best suits their needs. We highly recommend reaching out to Alec for your detailing needs!

Zale's met my service needs promptly in a very friendly and professional manner, at a cost far less…read morethan I expected. I needed a headlight changed in my 2006 Cadillac to pass inspection. I went to a Midas in Clifton Park, to be told that the bill would be close to $500 for 2 headlights and labor. The bumper needs to be removed on this car to access the headlights. I then stopped by Zale's and asked if they could take a look at it. I was told that they were very busy but if I dropped the car off they could at least take a look at it for me and get me a quote. I ordered the headlamps and dropped the car off Wednesday morning with the expectation that perhaps it might be looked at later in the week. Driving by later in that afternoon I saw that the car had been moved so I decided to stop in and inquire. The owner told me that he had had a chance to look at the job, and it would be done either Wed. afternoon or the following day depending on weather. He told me that there had been a few problems removing the bumper due to the age of the car, but that he had already corrected them. He also mentioned that one of the sockets had broken loose from its mounting, but he was able to bond it back on without having to replace it. He quoted me a price that was so far under the labor charge quoted by Midas that I immediately accepted it. The charge was more than fair, especially considering the unexpected problems that were encountered. The car was done by the next morning. Zale's reaffirmed my belief that small local businesses definitely provide the kind of honest pricing and concern for customer's needs that simply cannot be found in most chain businesses. I will unhesitatingly go there for any body related problems I have with any of my cars. Great job guys - now I know why you have been in business for decades. Art M.

I went to the Adirondack car wash to use the self service dog wash area. When I walked in, it was…read morerelatively clean and so that was a plus. You are able to use your bank/credit card, which is how I paid for my dog wash, so, with one swipe it charges you $10 for 10 minutes. I brought my own dog shampoo therefor I cannot tell you what their shampoo is like, or whether or not I like it because I used my own. I have a chocolate lab so he was relatively easy to walk up the ramp and into the tub. There is a tether so that my dog couldn't escape while I was bathing him. The water initially was kind of cold so I was concerned about that, but it did warm up nicely after about a minute. I was able to give my chocolate lab a mediocre bath but I went over my 10 minutes, the equipment will allow you to go to 15 minutes and charge you $15 before it shuts off automatically. I guess this is a good thing in case you forgot to turn it off, you won't get charged for anything over 15 minutes. So I had to swipe my credit card a second time so that I could finish rinsing the soap out of his hair and begin to dry him with their air dryer. They do have an air dryer with a relatively long hose, but the velocity that comes out of the air dryer is at a very, very low setting. So if you have a dog with an undercoat like a Labrador retriever as I do, 15 minutes will not even get close to drying his fur. I was charged for 2- 15 minute intervals at $15 each time and came home with a pretty wet dog. I think next time I will drive the extra 20 minutes and go try a different facility and hopefully can come home with a relatively dry dog. I'd be happier with spending $30 and using my own shampoo if at least he was clean and dry.

And the dryer also barely did anything so the car was still soaked afterwards, looked terrible. Had some bugs on the front and they are all still there. I paid for the most expensive option too, and it still sucked, definitely don't recommend.
