I am the one that tells people I need more information before I quote a price.  This is often to specifically avoid having a “why is it more!” and/or “why isn’t this done (or) included”, conversation after the fact.  Many of the people that question my integrity, competence, or willingness to make life easier often flock to a more convenient business.  Many of my clients who I have for life were sold on me for the same reason.  I take pride in the fact that they are probably not complaining about being scammed, not getting a quality service, or customer service experience.  They also know being compensated more than the other guy, I will likely keep showing up, since I will remain in business.  There also is not the same question mark about quality products invested.

But this is not about me.  I am asked around the United States, where can I find a detailer like you.  I am networked with options that I can confidently recommend.  Here is the catch.  The previous paragraph describes them.  That is the point!  What are you doing to find or eliminate good options?

What should someone who cares look for?  First, the communication that I originally mentioned.  A representative of a detailing business should be open to more than just telling you a price for generic terms like detail, full detail, ceramic, or even paint correction.  They are going to also encourage an open exchange, to make sure you are happy with the results during and after the fact.  I belief people quick to price a service and avoidant of communication, is a red flag in regards to quality of service and reputability as a legitimate business.  Many of the clients whose cars I am working on in this video are repeat clients who know I am available with any questions and concerns.
