My car was still pretty grimy from being shipped cross country this past winter and it had some paint scrapes from about 10 years ago. I contracted with District Detail primarily for cleaning the car, but told them I'd be happy with whatever improvement could be made with the body paint. Got the car back literally sparkling inside and out and they made tremendous improvement with the paint - and they were even able to re-clip the front bumper skirt that had gotten snagged and pulled out of place years ago! Steven kindly offered to try an additional product on some of the spots of missing paint which I'll be taking the car back for. Pricing was great and they were FAST; car was in at 7am and done by 2pm (the last time I took my car in for interior detailing at a chain company, they took nearly 3 days!) And I got the appointment for just a couple days following my call. Highly recommend Steven's work and their great customer service - Check them out! (And don't be put off by the fact that the business kinda looks like a chop shop from the street, LOL!) read more

Steven provided top tier, amazing service! Not only did he respond promptly, but he traveled to my home at a convenient time after I got off work. The swirls and scratches on the front of the hood are completely non-existent after his work. I HIGHLY recommend District Detail for their fast and quality work, great customer service, fair pricing, and thorough attention to detail! read more

They fixed a deep scratch on my car that required body + paintwork. Talk to Steven and met Tony at the shop, and in 48hs I had my car back, just like new. Recommended. read more

I used District Detailing to remove a previous ceramic coating and add a new, longer-lasting one, for my German-made sedan, working with Steven to come up with the right package. The work was done professionally and on time, and the results are fantastic, with the car (purchased used with 18,000 miles on it) looking brand new and with a coating that will last for years. Due to some confusion on my side, I had some questions about the work that was done, and Steven took the time to explain everything to me, discussing my queries with me as an adult and not a nuisance - something all to rare these days. District Detail, helmed by Steven, run a business that makes integrity foundational in all that they do, and I look forward to using their services in the future. I cannot recommend them highly enough, and it's encouraging to know that such a reputable business still exists in the auto world. Thank you, District Detail and Steven! read more

Part of me wishes I didn't have to write this review- after not owning a car for 15 years I finally bought my first new car in decades and within the first few days put a giant scratch in the side of my new Tesla Model Y trying to maneuver in my garage. Reached out to Steven based on his reviews. We chatted on the phone and he gave me a price to fix it, and could do the repair within a week. I brought in my car, and within a couple hours he had it fixed, and to my utter surprise, he said the fix was easier than expected and charged me 1/4th what he had quoted me. I don't have a lot of experience with cars, but that type of service and honesty seems incredible. Decided to do a ceramic coating to help protect the car from future mistakes I knew I would make, and the entire process was easy and the results look AWESOME. If you're reading this review- it's because of my own incompetence- but use my mistake to make an easy decision for yourself. read more

This business no longer exists. Their online business still functions, however, and takes deposits. Good luck getting that money back.

I brought in a car for an exterior detail and paint touch up. I inherited the car from an elderly relative that had been having trouble avoiding parking garage posts and had also hit something that caused the front bumper to have a gash and start coming off. I really just hoped that we could scrub off the tree grime from where the car had been sitting, and maybe cover up a paint spot to prevent rust, but District Detail went above and beyond my expectations. They also helped remove a thick sticker and other adhesive that was on the car. The area with the yellow paint and rust prevention looks miles better, and they even were able to reattach the bumper which ended up saving me a ton of $$ on having to buy a totally new one. I will definitely be bringing my cars back here for detail services! read more

I scheduled an exterior detail online about 3 weeks after I bought my new car. Steven reached out shortly thereafter and educated me about ceramic coating the car since I park it on the mean streets of DC. We worked out a very reasonable price and he answered all of my questions. He was very responsive over text and on the phone. I dropped the car off first thing in the morning and by mid-afternoon Steven was sending me pictures requesting a phone call to go over some things he had found. He obviously cares very much for his customers but also the quality of work done for them. Pickup was easy and the service was done on time. We talked through car wash and detail scheduling going forward and you can definitely bet that I'll be back. Really appreciate the work done on the car and am excited to show her off. If you are on the fence, don't be - Steven knows his trade and will take care of you and your vehicle. read more

Steve oversaw the project of repainting my two-tone1989 Lotus Espirt Turbo about six months ago. His work and attention to detail were extraordinary and the price was more than fair. There is a reason everyone gives him 5-Stars - he deserves it and he earns it! read more

Steven did an amazing job on the interior of my Nissan Rogue. My car was extremely molded on the inside due to a leak from my sunroof. I kept putting it off and it kept getting worse and worse. Steven was able to remediate all the fabric in the car, and extracted gallons of water from underneath the floor of my car. He was even able to get the smell out from the mold. Two months later, still no mold has come back. He gave me a fair price and I'd recommend him to anyone. He was very kind and responsive, and provided me updates with photos on the progress of the job. read more

I recently got a new car and after reading way too many forum posts on the best way to preserve/enhance factory paint, I decided to get a ceramic coating on it. I then did a good bit of more research on where to get a quality job done in the DC area and Steven came up repeatedly. I opted for the 10 year coating since I'm financing the car, and don't plan on getting rid of it anytime soon. The day finally came and I dropped off the car with Steven hoping for the best. That evening, I picked it up and was just floored by the work. Ceramic coating is probably one of the few things that deliver on what marketing promises; and Steven did an excellent job bringing out the best in his work. The only thing that wasn't great is that the sun already set when I first saw it. I will be going back to Steven when my defective sunroof is replaced and am planning on recommending him to anyone who asks. read more

Steven would make quick work of the Chernobyl exclusion zone if given the opportunity. I accidentally left my sunroof open during a storm, and then shut up my car for three weeks over a holiday. The seats were turning white with mold. The smell was indescribable. Steven calmly pulled up the carpets and said, "Not the worst I've ever seen." Steven made the car look and smell brand new, killed the mold at the source, and did it in a day and a half. Of the half a dozen detail shops I initially called, District Detail's mold removal process was by far the most comprehensive. Steven is responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. I would absolutely take my car back to him again. read more

Did a great job. Sent my friend to him too. I got an interior detail and some paint work.

Recently took my car to get an interior/exterior detail, full paint correction, dent fixes and finally a ceramic coating and am very happy with the work. Overall, Steven was super helpful and responsive, and a pleasure to work with (you can tell he really cares about his work). It took a few days, but he was able to correct most of the scratches and the car shines now. Price was reasonable and competitive to others in the area. Will definitely be back for future detail/wash work. read more

I left the sunroof open in my new Jeep overnight and found my car the next morning filled with rain water. I contacted Steven from District Detailing and he walked me through the process and pricing, both of which were very straightforward. One of the benefits of DD is their mobile service; Steven came out right away to my house and began work, and the next day the car was dry and damage-free. Steven's trustworthy and hard-working and I'll be using him moving forward for all of our detailing. I would recommend him to friends and family in a second. read more

I went into District Detail just wanting to get my car cleaned. My friends and I had recently went on a ski trip, and the exterior of my car was caked with mud and snow. I was blown away by the results - the outside looked spotless, the windows were bright and shiny, and the interior looked brand new. Moreover, Steven gave me a great price for the stunning job. This place is one of the best in the DMV. Definitely returning here soon to brush up my ride. read more

Great detailing job and value...highly recommend Steven! He was very thorough and I will definitely plan on returning!

I brought my car here just to get it cleaned. A week later....I had a new car! Let me explain. Steven called me shortly after I dropped it off and said, 'You know, I could paint your rims black'. And then I called him back and said, 'What about the side and front grills'. And then he calls me back and suggested painting the calipers red. Next thing you know....!!!!! I'm in love with Black Mamba again. His prices are fair, his service is top notch and his work....speaks for it self! read more

I brought my 2007 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S to Steven for a full interior/exterior detail after a cross-country road trip (which left it so grimy on the inside and covered in splattered bugs on the outside) and he did an excellent job! The car is shiny and spotless, and in perfect condition--it looks even better than when I bought it this spring. I'm new to DC, but I'll never take my car anywhere else to get cleaned/detailed after my experience with him. Steven was really prompt and trustworthy in his communication as we were setting up the appointment--needless to say that was really critical when deciding where to bring a car like this, but he put my mind at ease. You'll be happy with his attention to detail and the level of service you receive for the price. read more

I'm so happy I found district detail. We needed to return our leased car, post toddler apocalypse. Steven managed to buff every scratch, remove every hideous stain and brought new life back into our car for a very and I mean very reasonable price. Stevens' DC based competitors charge twice as much with very mediocre reviews. read more

District Detail is THE premier detailing service in the DMV. From paint correction and sealants, to grime removal and upholstery cleaning; they do it all with professionalism and honesty, and are even mobile. Steven performed a buff and polish on my Subaru STI's oxidized clear coat surrounding my hood scoop and man what a difference - night and day. My car hasn't looked this good in years. Very thankful for District Detail and I couldn't be happier. read more

My apartment building is basically street parking only, which means I have a LOT of random scrapes and dings on my 12 year old Honda Fit. Because of the aforementioned DC street parking I just wanted to make it look BETTER without the expense of replacing whole panels just so they could get dinged up again. Steven did a GREAT job on my car. It looks 1000x better than when I took it in and I absolutely wouldn't hesitate to go back for service. I so appreciate that District Detail was willing to work within the parameters of what I was looking for. Drop-off and pick-up were very convenient. read more

Dropped off my GTI to have a full paint correction and ceramic coating done. Steven worked to accommodate my budget. I was kept up to date on the progress. I was really impressed with the results. Steven got nearly all of the paint defects out - swirls, scratches scuffs. The ceramic coating was totally worth the extra cost - the car's paint is so glossy. The paint didn't even look this good when I first bought the car. I'd recommend District Detail to anyone. read more

I honestly couldn't be happier with the work Steven did to my little Miata. She looks better than when I originally purchased her! So I carried my car across country under a tarp and the trip totally stripped off the top layer of paint and left my poor car looking very dull and faded. But Steven came to the rescue and worked miracles! He is very professional and phenomenal at what he does. He explained what my car needed, all my options, and prices for each type of work. I really appreciated these explanations and especially the extra tips he gave on how I can maintain my car's esthetic and paint job. Steven did a full detailed wash, tires are now gleaming, then used a clay bar, and fully polished and sealed my car to show room perfection! All conveniently at my home! I will absolutely be using District Detail's services again and would highly recommend! Thank you thank you thank you!!! read more

My car had been stinking of cat pee (don't even ask) for over two months. I had tried to clean it myself and even had it "professionally" cleaned, which apparently meant floral smelling cat pee. Then I found Steven! Steven shampooed my seats, did an ozone treatment, and changed my cabin filter. My car is now, legitimately, better than new. And smells like NOTHING. Which is exactly what I wanted :) Steven also has the patience of an angel. My schedule changes quickly due to my job and he was consistently so accommodating. I cannot wait to go back and experience the exterior detailing, which is truly his specialty. Thank you so much, Steven! read more

Steven did an AWESOME job on my car! I never even imagined that my car could be so clean. He really put in the work and detail in making sure the car is perfect. I'm extremely happy with the results both on the exterior as well as the interior work. 100% would recommend District Detail to anyone who's looking to get their car really cleaned. I called him up, and he offered to pick up my car, detail it, and drop it back off since I can't drive due to a broken leg. This guy is AMAZING, and he went above and beyond on the service and clear communication (text, call, and even FB msgs!). read more

Called District Detail to get some road paint that I drove through off the side of my car. I had tried a few times myself and was not able to remove the paint. I took it to a couple of other detailers who told me some crazy exorbitant price or others who said they would get back to me but never got back to me. Steven came out and gave me the best price and we scheduled the service. He came out and worked very hard to get all the paint off of my vehicle and to detail the outside. When he was done the job, all of the paint was off the vehicle and there was no damage to the paint. My car has never shined line it has when Steven detailed the outside. He did such a great job I had him to come back and detail the inside of my car. The inside of the car hadn't look that clean since I purchased it. I planned to keep using District Detail as long as he is around. I am planning to get the inside and out detailed again once we get through the snow and salt of the winter months. read more

Steven came to my house and detailed the inside of both mine and my husband's vehicles. He gave us a reasonable price and did a good job for that price. Our cars were pretty disgusting with dog hair and who knows what else covering most surfaces. After Steven's cleaning though I feel like I'm driving a new car and that's pretty exciting. Steven was very friendly and professional. I would recommend him to others. read more

You'd never know we have a toddler after Steven's done cleaning our Forester! Between long road trips, street parking, hauling stuff, and a toddler in the car - our Forester was in desperate need of a wash (inside AND out!). Did a lot of research, and District Detail kept coming up as a highly rated business. Even better? We live in the neighborhood and were able to drop the car off for detailing. I don't think our car even looked this good when it rolled off the showroom floor. Steven went above and beyond with the finer details, and even recommended a paint guy to fix a nice gouge on our driver door. We will be getting our other car detailed here and plan to regularly use District Detail and Steven's expertise for all our car washing needs. You won't regret giving him a chance. Lightyears better than a drive-in car wash. Fast communication before and during as well. read more

I took my motorcycle to Stephen to get the bike detailed. After going over the bike with him, I did get the ceramic coating and had him do some touch ups on the paint from boot marks and a drop. Couldn't be more pleased with the results. Even a cell phone picture is worth 1000 words - so see the photo. Stephen's work is impeccable, prices more than reasonable and so easy to work with has just left me smiling. My bike is once again a true ambassador to it's Italian heritage. Well done Stephen I am grateful. read more

The car that I brought to Steven had not been thoroughly cleaned in an embarrassingly long amount of time. I honestly wasn't sure any car detailing would fix the years of "neglect" to our family car, but I was shocked when I picked our car up from Steven and his team. All the crumbs and dirt were picked out of the corners of the console and stereo. Seats and carpets were clean as new, and the car smelled like it did the first day we picked it up. Not only were his prices very reasonable, but Steven is friendly, flexible, and very easy to reach. District Detail should be your go-to if you need to clean your car!!! read more

I went to district detail for my car interior deep cleaning, after reading all the wonderful reviews. I was very disappointed as my car was barely touched. It was not shampooed at all, the trank was not vacuumed as it was promised! It was a total waste of money to spend around $200 for nothing!!! For sure, I will never come back and please folks don't be fooled! I hope this will help someone spare her/his money and time from wastage!!! read more
