About Us
Lowest Prices with Guaranteed Results
Wash Patrol is a family owned and operated, professionally trained and certified auto detailing company based in Ennis and serving the entire DFW Area. We offer both 100% mobile and facility based detailing for all your detailing needs. Our goal is to make professional detailing affordable to everyone who cares about taking care of their vehicles.
The truth is that professional detailing costs significantly more in money, time and expertise than traditional car washes; however, detailing or reconditioning is a far greater value and investment for your vehicle. More often times than not, we are fixing the damage caused by owners, drive through washes, or other so called "detailers" that aren't properly trained or equipped. We want to educate everyone who cares about their vehicles, that detailing can be affordable and preserve the condition and value of their vehicles far better than washing alone.
So what makes us different?
First, all of our staff are professionally trained and certified in Car Wash, Advanced Detailing, Paint Correction, Headlight Restoration, and Nano Ceramic Coatings. There are many companies in the market that claim to be professional detailers; however, few have the professional training, certification, or equipment that Wash Patrol offers. If you care about the quality of work going into your vehicle's care, look no further than Wash Patrol.
Second, our pricing! When compared to other certified detailers in the area, our prices can be as much as as 50% less. This is NOT because we cut corners or because we use cheap products. Quite the contrary. We use only the best products, equipment and techniques available today. However, our business model is that of efficiency, volume and profit modesty. We believe in fair pricing for the services being offered.
Third, is our soft approach to sales. We work very hard to create packages that meet the majority of needs for our customers and not pull, "bait and switch" pricing that other providers may try. Naturally, every detail situation is unique and with every unique situation, we do our best to ensure that the goals and expectations of the customer are met, at the budget they intended it to. In many cases, there are additional services that can be offered to customers; however, we strive to ensure those recommendations come with clear explanations and understanding. We DO NOT try to blanket upsell our customers for the sake of getting more work. Our objective is to always match the right services with the right need. We do that through our communication with our customers.
Which leads us to our final separator...our professional communication. Being family owned and operated does make a difference, as we are fully invested in the success of our business. Just give us a call and we are confident you will find us easy to communicate with, honest in our conversation, and trustworthy in our work. So from the initial phone call, to the final inspection, you can expect clear, professional, and educational communication from us.

I have 2 kids and we travel everywhere and they eat so you can imagine what my car looked like it was nasty and messy! I made an appointment online and heard right away from them! Rick the owner was out the next day and he came to MY house to clean my car.... that is so easy that you have a detail company come to you! They were reasonable if not cheaper than anywhere and they come to you! My car is so clean and I love it!! Thank you Rick so much! I will for sure use y'all again.
Marissa K.: Small SUV Detail - 02/01/2018,
I needed a good deep clean of my car before Baby 2 arrives, and it had just been a while since we had done anything like this. Received a referral for Wash Patrol, gave them a call- 100% professional and courteous, actually had some time that week. They came out at the time specified, and did the most fantastic job getting my car clean- have already recommended them to several family and friends and recommending to you too! Great price for the quality of work done, you won’t regret it!
Katie L.: SUV Full Detail - 03/22/2018
Extremely professional and strives to meet your needs! My car literally looks brand new. For the amount of time and number of people they had working in it, the price was quite modest. I’m very happy with the results.
Jennifer W.: Full Sedan Detail - 04/03/2018
He was on time, professional, and took nearly 5 hours making sure my truck was in great condition. Absolutely looks better than when I got it off the lot and his attention to detail was on point. Paid the same or cheaper than any other detailer in town and he came to me! Will absolutely use again and will highly recommend to others.
Jason B.: Large Truck Full Detail - 11/20/2017,
Thank you guys so much! Great service and excellent job on our vehicle! We had an emergency after having one of the kids get sick in the car. You not only corrected that issue but the car is as clean as it was the first day we brought it home!

F.A.Q

What is the difference in a detail and "really good" cleaning job?
A professional detail job includes all three areas of Cleaning, Time and Expertise. Here is a breakdown of what each of those areas mean.
Cleaning - First and foremost, the level of cleaning that goes into detailing is very advanced and meticulous. From paint restoration services, to carpet steaming/shampooing, to leather care and upholstery work. Detailing is a bumper to bumper, cracks and crevasses, business. The result of a true detail job should be a vehicle with as close to show room finish as humanly possible.
Time - Proper detailing and the level of cleaning that goes into it takes time. Most full detail jobs run 4-6 hours in length and cover both the outside and inside of your vehicle. Furthermore, specialized equipment is needed to address all the areas required for restoring a vehicle to its "like new" condition. This equipment can be expensive, as well require specialized training. There simply isn't a quick and easy way to properly detail a vehicle.
Expertise - Today's vehicles include countless types of materials; as well as, countless ways for each of those materials to get dirty, degrade or wear. Knowing how to address such situations properly takes education and experience. Improper use of cleaners, brushes, equipment, etc., can leave a vehicle unclean or damaged. This expertise also has a direct cost as professional training is required, earned experience is obtained and specialized equipment purchased.
In summary, you really can't compare car washing with detailing as each has their purpose and place regarding vehicle maintenance. Car washing is worthy and important for maintaining basic appearance. However, detailing is a next level of care that preserved the life of a vehicle, it's components and longevity.
How often should a vehicle be detailed?
Maintenance wise, we recommend a basic detail every quarter. This will ensure a very good level of cleaning, but without the additional expense of additional paint work. It is during these times that you can consider adding a specialized add-on, like a full carpet shampoo, trim restore or engine detail.
Everything else we would say is a response to a need you may have. You have a spill in the vehicle, headlights are getting hazy, etc. These are services that don't happen in any schedule and aren't necessarily preventable. So just tackle them as you need to.
Why do detail jobs run so much higher than other car washing services?
The better question we might could answer here is whether spending $150 - $250 on a detailing job is worth it. Our answer is ABSOLUTELY! Here's are just a few reasons:
- For most people today, a vehicle is going to be their second largest purchase next to a home. If you rent, then your vehicle is most likely the most valuable asset you have. Spending a few hundred dollars per year to keep it in excellent condition helps preserve that investment.
- You spend a great deal of time in your vehicle. This means lots of opportunity for continuously contributing to it getting dirty. Fast food, rain, mud, pets, kids, etc. All of these factors equate to a vehicle being a lot dirtier than you realize. Plus, as that filth and grime develop over time, you usually are oblivious to how bad it is. A professional detail will reveal that to you and restore pride you had in your ride when you first got it.
- Reduce that "new car" urge you have. Car payments are expensive and reliability of vehicles is crucial. Maintaining the newness of your vehicle while making payments on your auto will help keep that new car sensation you had when you first bought the vehicle. If you drive a vehicle that is paid off, then spending a few hundred dollars to spruce it up is a whole lot less expensive than several hundred dollars PER MONTH that comes with a new one.
- Resell value and ability. You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Having your car detailed will gain you every dollar back in resell value. A freshly detailed car makes an excellent first impression and establishes trust with the buyer as you are viewed as someone who cared for the car. This work best when you have been maintaining the vehicle during your ownership, but still a major advantage if you haven't and now need to sell the car and get top dollar for it.
- There is just something therapeutic about a freshly cleaned vehicle. Few people honestly like travelling in a vehicle that isn't cared for. Furthermore, when you are carrying people with you, a freshly detailed car gives an excellent impression and enjoyable experience.
Is your detailing process gentle and eco-friendly?
We use very gentle, yet effective, cleaning agents for are jobs and ALL are eco-friendly. Most of our cleaning products are completely plant based and those that aren't are tested and rated completely safe for the environment and your vehicle.
However, keep in mind, an inexperienced person can still use a safe product in the wrong way and cause damage to your vehicle. This is why it is important that you know who is working on your vehicle and what their expertise level it.
Do you offer fleet services?
What all areas do you service?
We are able to service vehicles at both home and business locations, with or without power and water access. No matter your need, Wash Patrol has you covered.
How much does a ceramic coating cost?
One thing most companies won't tell you about their coating prices is that the prices don't include any paint correction or repair preparation. What I mean by that is that if you drove a vehicle straight off the showroom floor and into a ceramic coating applicators shop, you would probably get the price listed generically listed on the website. However, most vehicles do not meet such criteria. Most need to be cleaned, reconditioned and even have paint correction done to eliminate scratches, swirl marks, etc before applying the coating. Furthermore, most pricing that is quoted on a site is for a single coat that has the lowest protection level. A single coat of our R1 Pro, provides up to 5 years of protection. We offer up to 3 coats that gives the full 7 year protection, with the additional 2 coats coming at tremendous savings after the first coat because most of the initial work doesn't need to be repeated.
We would love to discuss your interest in ceramic coating, and help you decide if it is right for you. Feel free to call or contact us for more information.
Are you only mobile, or do you have drop off services as well?
You don't have to have an appointment for our drop off services, simply come through Frank Kent's service department and have them write you up for a detail package. They will get your vehicle to us and even facilitate a ride back to home or work for you if needed.
