Mobile grooming vs workshop grooming

[Discoburg]

How much does he charge? Did he do a good job for the interior too?

Should try Joseph Mobile polishing. Used him many times. Even for wedding cars. I prefer he come my carpark do as his van has generator. I don't like go his shop though cause his dog is freaking big sia

i personally think mobile is better. its at your door step, but the probelm is need to find a good groomer. you guys might wanna try this mobile groomer ?

try calling him at 97754673, his pricing starting from small car is $78.

wash, remove scratches, polish, wax(tyre also), rain repellent on all glass, vacuum clean and wax interior and free top up wiper water. very detailed and good service. and all are expensive branded products , most important all by HAND no machine.

Why no machine? Machine should be better for removing defects. By hand DIY better.

took up a groupon package for KND Groomerz..totally disappointed and pissed. Was one of the earlier birds who book an booking and when it comes to the actual day..sms and calls to confirm the booking with groomerz were totally unresponsive.

 

I only receive a sms reply conveniently saying that my booking was overlooked and to reschedule for another booking which comes only 1 month later.

 

Best part was, the second booking was also overlooked.

 

Needless to say, I emailed groupon and complained about this grooming company..I was given the refunds via groupon credits in approx 3 weeks time.

 

Bottomline, never to sign up with KND Groomerz..we should spend our money in other recommended mobile grooming companies which gives better service!

I use this mobile groomer call autocleanz. 2 young local chap. They usually do part time, so can only work either evening or weekends, public holiday. Not exactly cheap, about 120 for a small car but quality of work is good. They use auto polisher. Being using their grooming service for years. However, your car park must have power point. They don't have generator. I saw their work on BMW SG forum and was impressed by their workmanship. So far never disappoint.

 

The guy name is Mark. 9862 2254.
