We come to your St. James driveway


We're a regular sight inside St. James Plantation — Woodlands Park, SeaSide, HarborWalk, Regency Lakes, The Reserve and Founders. With 81 holes of golf, a 475-slip marina and the St. James By The Sea beach club, this is a town of golf carts, boats and cars, and we keep all three looking their best right in your driveway.

You don't drive anywhere and you don't move a thing. We arrive fully self-contained with our own water and power, set up at your home, and leave your vehicle looking like the day you bought it.

Why it matters here

Built for the Intracoastal coast


Salt

Salt air off the Intracoastal Waterway and the ocean breeze settles on paint and chrome and corrodes clear coat over time — especially on cars and carts that sit outside.

Sand

Sand and grass clippings ride in from the course and the marina, grind into carpet and mats, and dull both interiors and golf-cart seats.

Sun

Coastal UV fades dashboards, cracks leather and oxidizes paint faster than almost anywhere inland. A coating is the difference over years.

Good to know

St. James questions, answered


Do you come inside the St. James gate?

Yes. We're fully mobile and self-contained, and we detail right in your driveway anywhere inside St. James Plantation — just let your gate know we're coming.

Do you detail golf carts?

Absolutely. Golf carts take a beating from sun, grass and salt air in St. James. We clean, protect and condition seats and surfaces alongside cars and boats.

Can you handle boats at the marina?

Yes — we offer marine detailing for boats at the St. James marina and at home. Text us photos and the length and we'll quote it.

How often should I detail here?

With Intracoastal salt air and strong coastal sun, a maintenance visit every 4 to 8 weeks keeps buildup down, with a deeper detail a couple times a year. Ceramic coating extends that for years.
