Everything you need to run your car detailing business

Packed with powerful tools to grow your revenue, streamline your bookings, and boost client retention.

Service menus that match real detailing packages

Set up options like maintenance wash, deep interior, single-stage polish, multi-stage correction, ceramic coating, and add-ons (pet hair, odour, convertible roof, engine bay). Customers pick the right job so you’re not re-quoting everything by phone.

Deposit & balance collection for high-value details

Take a deposit at booking for coating and correction work, then collect the remaining balance on completion. No more awkward ‘are you definitely coming?’ texts or losing a whole day because someone changed their mind.

Cure-time and buffer blocks baked into the diary

Automatically include extra time for pre-wash, decon, wipe-down, and end-of-job checks. Block out cure windows for ceramics so you’re not trying to squeeze another job in and compromising the finish.

Customer prep forms: access, power, and vehicle condition

Collect the details that matter: location for mobile jobs, driveway access, water/electric availability, parking restrictions, and any known issues (sap, tar, vomit, smoke). Arrive prepared instead of discovering problems at the doorstep.

Automated reminders with drop-off/collection instructions

Send confirmations and reminders that include what to remove from the car, how long the job will realistically take, and what to expect on collection. Fewer late arrivals, fewer ‘I’ll be 30 minutes’ messages, fewer no-shows.

Mobile detailing routing and service-area control

Set your service radius, travel fees, and which services you’ll do off-site (maintenance washes, interiors) versus workshop-only work (correction/coatings). Stop accepting jobs that waste time and fuel for the wrong ticket value.

The challenges every car detailing faces

Jobs that overrun when the car turns up worse than described

Photos hide a lot: dog hair, mouldy carpets, tar spots, heavy swirling, or a neglected convertible roof. If you’ve booked a tight slot, you either rush the job or push the next customer back. You need booking rules that build in inspection time and realistic buffers.

Drop-offs, collections, and “can you fit me in today?” requests

People want a valet while they’re at work, a quick machine polish before a weekend, or a last-minute sale prep. Without a proper system, you’re stuck replying between jobs and risking double-booking. You need controlled availability and clear cut-off times.

Ceramic coating cure windows and aftercare expectations

Coatings aren’t just ‘apply and go’. You’ve got decon, correction, panel wipe, coating layers, and cure time that eats into the diary. Customers also need strict aftercare guidance. Booking needs to reflect multi-stage work, not a single appointment block.

Quotes that don’t convert because customers keep shopping

Detailing clients compare Instagram reels and “from £99” deals. If your quote sits in a message thread, it gets buried and you lose the booking. You need a simple quote-to-booking path with deposits, expiry dates, and reminders that don’t feel pushy.

Built for real car detailing workflows

A normal day starts with a quick look at the diary: what’s on site, what’s mobile, and which jobs need the workshop. You’ve got a maintenance wash booked for 9am, an interior detail at 11, and a paint correction starting after lunch that could easily run long if the paint is hammered. Then the messages start. Someone wants a “quick polish” before the weekend, another customer asks if ceramic coat...

Quick Setup

Get started in 3 simple steps

Your car detailing business accepting bookings in under 5 minutes

1

Add your detailing packages and common add-ons

Create services like maintenance wash, deep interior, single-stage enhancement, multi-stage paint correction, ceramic coating, and sale prep. Add extras detailers deal with daily: pet hair removal, heavy soiling, mould treatment, tar/glue removal, and convertible roof cleaning.

2

Set realistic durations, buffers, and cure-time rules

Build in inspection time and finishing checks, then add buffers for overruns. For coatings, block out cure windows and set booking rules so customers can’t squeeze a coating into a small gap that will ruin the workflow.

3

Turn on deposits and share your booking link everywhere

Take deposits for correction/coatings and optional deposits for interiors to cut no-shows. Put the link on Google Business Profile, Instagram, Facebook and your website so customers can book without waiting for you to reply mid-job.

FAQ

Everything you need to know about our car detailing booking system.

How do you handle urgent “can you fit me in today?” detailing jobs?

You can keep a controlled same-day slot for quick jobs like a maintenance wash or a mini interior. The system only shows what you’ve decided is genuinely doable, so you’re not promising a full valet when you’ve got a correction job on. You can also set cut-off times so late requests don’t land while you’re finishing a coating.

What detailing job types can I offer through the booking page?

Most UK detailers list maintenance washes, deep interior detailing, single-stage polish, multi-stage paint correction, ceramic coating, and sale preparation. You can add specialist options like convertible roof cleaning, odour treatment, pet hair removal, and engine bay detailing. Customers choose a package and add-ons so you start with the right scope.

When should I take payment for paint correction or ceramic coating?

For higher-value work, taking a deposit at booking is the safest approach because you’re reserving workshop time and materials. Many detailers then take the balance on collection once the customer has seen the finish. If you do fleet or repeat maintenance, you can still invoice on agreed terms, but deposits protect your diary for one-off jobs.

Does the system help with seasonal spikes like spring clean-ups and winter grime?

Yes — you can adjust availability and service menus based on the time of year. In spring you might open more slots for maintenance washes and decon packages, while in summer you may prioritise correction/coatings for weekend cars and wedding vehicles. When demand jumps, online booking stops your phone becoming the bottleneck.

Can I manage multiple detailers or a small team?

You can run separate calendars for each detailer or bay, depending on how you work. That’s useful if one person handles interiors while another focuses on machine polishing, or if you’ve got a mobile van and a workshop diary. It reduces the classic problem of two people promising the same slot to different customers.

How does it help turn quotes into confirmed bookings?

Instead of leaving a quote buried in messages, you can send a link that lets the customer pick a slot and pay the deposit. You can set quote expiry windows so your prices don’t float around for weeks while your diary fills. Automated reminders nudge the customer without you chasing.

What customer communication can I automate without sounding robotic?

You can send practical messages detailers already send: drop-off instructions, what to remove from the car, access requirements for mobile jobs, and realistic time windows. After the job, you can send aftercare notes for coatings and safe wash guidance. It keeps communication consistent even when you’re flat out.

Can I vary pricing for different vehicle sizes and conditions?

Yes — you can price by vehicle type (small, medium, large, SUV/7-seater) and offer condition-based add-ons like heavy soiling or pet hair. For correction work, you can list starting prices and require an inspection/assessment step before final confirmation. That stops you being locked into a price that doesn’t match the car that turns up.

Why iBookFast for your car detailing business?

Detailing work looks simple from the outside: “wash, polish, done.” In reality, the diary gets messy because every car turns up different and customers don’t always know what they’re asking for. A “full valet” might be a light tidy on a leased hatchback, or it might be a family SUV with ground-in mud, sticky seats and dog hair in every seam. If your booking process doesn’t capture that upfront, yo...
