Have a specific area on your vehicle that you really want to focus on? Try creating your own detail! This allows you to pick and choose the services you would like performed and pay at an hourly rate. For more info, please give us a call.

Requires a 2-hour minimum service ($180) and includes 1 technician. Additional labor is quoted at $45/30 mins after client’s approval.

All prices are subject to change. Boats that are excessively dirty, oversized, or require extra labor due to oxidation removal are subject to additional costs. Smith Bros does not service boats that are in the water. Only boats that are dry docked or on a trailer on land. Cities on the outskirts of our mobile service may result in additional transportation fees.

Boat Detailing FAQ

What Boat Detailing Packages Do You Offer?

We provide several detailing options depending on your boat’s condition. Packages include Premium Wash, Wash & Wax, Wash & Ceramic, and Restorer for oxidation removal. Each is priced per foot, so you only pay for the size of your vessel.

Can You Remove Oxidation and Restore Faded Gelcoat?

Yes! Our Restorer package is designed specifically for boats with oxidation or faded gelcoat. We use machine polishing to bring back shine and color, with the option to add a ceramic sealant for longer-lasting protection.

Do You Offer Ceramic Coating for Boats?

Absolutely. We apply Opti-Coat Pro and Optimum Gloss-Coat ceramic coatings for boats, which provide multi-year protection against UV damage, saltwater, and contaminants. We also offer TEC582 ceramic sealant for up to 6 months of gloss and hydrophobic protection.

How Often Should I Have My Boat Detailed?

For boats kept in the water or frequently used, we recommend a wash every 4–6 weeks and a wax or ceramic upgrade at least once a season. Regular detailing prevents salt buildup, oxidation, and staining, extending the life of your gelcoat and trim.

Where Can My Boat Be Detailed?

We can detail your boat at your home, storage facility, or our San Marcos shop, but it must be on a trailer or out of the water. For safety and quality, we do not perform detailing services on boats while they’re in the water.

  •   Arrived on time and did an amazing job on my motorcycle. They even gave me a refund on an add-on corrosion service I requested, because they were only able to get a small portion of it cleaned. The ceramic coat looks amazing. Very happy with their work and service. Thanks!

  •   I have not used this business probably a dozen times for various Vehicles including the fleet trucks for my shop, and I can say that without exception they are the best in this business. They have a slew of options for online ordering, and I have yet to have one of their technicians show up late or being a bad mood. I have dealt with at least three or four of their technicians and I've yet to meet one that wasn't truly engaged in what they were doing as well as giving helpful advice. It's rare to find somebody that really enjoys what they do and do their absolute best. Keep up the good work and I will keep using you folks.

  •   Updated: After some scheduling mishaps, the owner reached out to me a couple times to try to make things right. Luke, the owner, was willing to have the guy go to my work, or the shop where my car was going to be. When I finally had the chance to reschedule, the guys came out and did a mini detail, steam cleaned the seats, and odor remediation. There were two guys that came out and did a fantastic job. They paid close attention to detail and made sure I was completely satisfied before taking off. This was my second time using the company and would highly recommend them. Thanks to Luke and his staff for a wonderful detail.

  •   I've used a few mobile detailing service companies, and service from them is usually "pretty good". This one was superior to the others, by quite a bit. I'll definitely keep info on this one, and use them in the future. My service was done by Ana today. I hope when I use them again, I get Ana again. GREAT job!

  •   Put a scratch in the clearcoat of out new car and then added some swirl marks when I tried to fix it...

    Reached out to some detailers and Smith Bros was quick to respond, had the services I wanted and great availability. Easily set up the appointment and got updates including from the crew when they were inbound. They arrived early, and got to work. Full wash, clay bar, buffed out the scratch and then ceramic coat. Looked amazing and only took maybe an hour. Absolutely worth the price and a great value. Car still looks great 2 weeks later.

    Would use Smith Bros again and highly recommended them.
