The Process

1

Request your quote

Fill out the form and Jamie will come back to you with a quote based on your vehicle type and location. No guessing, no back-and-forth.

2

We come to you

STARC arrives at your driveway or workplace with everything needed. You do not need to provide water or power, just a flat spot to park.

3

Safe wash, start to finish

The wash follows a specific order to avoid cross-contamination: wheels first, then the body top to bottom, interior last. Nothing rushed.

4

Dry and detail

The car is hand-dried with clean microfibre towels, windows are polished, and a detail spray is applied to the paintwork to keep it slick between visits.

5

You collect a clean car

The job is done at your place, on your schedule. No drop-off, no waiting, no picking it up from somewhere across town.

Is This Right For You?

Maintenance washes suit anyone who wants to keep their car in good condition without waiting for it to get bad enough to need a full detail. Ute and SUV owners in Brisbane, Gold Coast and Ipswich who are covering decent kilometres each week will get the most value from a regular wash schedule that actually looks after their paint rather than cutting into it.

Common Questions About Maintenance Wash

How long does a maintenance wash take?

Most vehicles take between 60 and 90 minutes from setup to pack-down. Larger dual-cab utes or seven-seat SUVs can run a bit longer depending on the condition of the interior.

Is a maintenance wash the same as a regular car wash?

No. Drive-through and servo washes use brushes and harsh chemicals that introduce swirl marks and strip any wax or coating over time. A maintenance wash uses safe contact techniques specifically to preserve your paint, not degrade it.

Do I need to be home while you wash the car?

Not necessarily. As long as the car is accessible and you have given the go-ahead, Jamie can complete the job and let you know when it is done. Most customers are home, but it is not a requirement.

How often should I book a maintenance wash?

Every two to four weeks is the range most cars in this area need, especially through summer when bugs, bird droppings and road grime build up fast. Vehicles with ceramic coatings benefit from regular washing to keep the hydrophobic layer performing properly.

Will a maintenance wash remove scratches or swirl marks?

A maintenance wash cleans and protects, it does not correct paint. If your car has visible swirl marks or scratches, a paint correction service is the right place to start before moving to a regular wash schedule.
