Car & Boat Detailing in River Hills, Lake Wylie

In River Hills, the car is in the garage and the boat is at the dock or the marina. We'll detail both on the same visit, right inside the gate, so you don't have to take either one anywhere.

Detailing Inside the Gate

River Hills is one of Lake Wylie's best-known communities: a gated neighborhood of nearly 1,100 homes on more than 800 acres along the lake, with a championship golf course running through it and a mature tree canopy overhead. Lake Wylie Detailing is a local, family-run business, and River Hills is right in our home area.

Because River Hills is gated with a staffed gatehouse, we come in as your guest. When you book, please arrange our entry the same way you would for any visitor or service provider. Guests use the Front Gate. Once we're in, we set up in your driveway with our own water tank and generator, so we don't need your outdoor spigot or a garage outlet.

Lake Wylie Detailing is an independent business and isn't affiliated with the River Hills Community Association, the country club, or the marina.

Cars and Boats, Same Visit

This is the main reason River Hills residents call us. Instead of scheduling one company for the SUV and another for the boat, you can book both for one visit. We quote each service separately, then give you a time estimate for the whole visit when you book. Because we book one job at a time, you have our full attention for the whole appointment.

Your Boat: Driveway, Dock, or Marina

Our Marine Full Refresh (from $399) is a complete interior and exterior boat cleaning. We can do it with the boat on a trailer in your driveway, at your private dock if we can reach it safely, or at the marina with the marina's permission. River Hills has a marina with covered slips, which is run separately from the community association. If your boat lives there, check their rules for outside vendors before you book.

Boat pricing can vary by size and condition, and we confirm your quote before we start. Running a pontoon? See our pontoon boat cleaning page. Planning ahead for the season? Read our Lake Wylie boat season guide.

Your Car: Tree Canopy, Pollen & Golf Days

The same big trees that make River Hills so pretty are hard on paint. Cars parked outside collect sap, pollen, and bird droppings, and in humid weather that grime bonds to the clear coat. The Elite Full Detail ($349) takes care of it with clay-bar decontamination followed by ceramic wax for about 6 months of protection.

Inside, it's usually the lake and the golf course: wet towels, sandy flip-flops, grass clippings from golf shoes, and a golf bag that's been in and out of the trunk all summer. Carpet shampoo is included starting with the Lake Wylie Refresh, and the LWD Signature ($449) adds fabric-seat extraction and interior UV protection.

Job time depends on each vehicle's or boat's size and condition and the service you choose. We'll give you a time estimate for the whole visit when you book.

If you'd like your car kept up without thinking about it, our memberships take care of it: Monthly Maintenance at $150/month (after an initial Elite), the Quarterly Elite Plan at $1,199/year for 4 details, or the Semi-Annual Elite Plan at $649/year for 2.

River Hills Detailing FAQs

How do you get through the River Hills gate?

We come in as your guest. When you book, please set up our entry the way you would for any visitor or service provider. Guests use the Front Gate. If anything changes on the day, just text us at (839) 868-6790.

Can you detail my car and my boat on the same day?

Yes. That's one of the most common requests we get in River Hills. We'll quote each service, then give you a time estimate for the whole visit when you book.

Can you detail my boat in its slip at the River Hills marina?

We can if the marina allows outside vendors. The marina operates separately from the community association, and we don't have a partnership with it, so please check their rules first. We can also detail your boat on a trailer in your driveway or at your private dock.

My car is parked under trees and the paint feels rough. What should I book?

That roughness is usually bonded sap, pollen, and fallout. The Elite Full Detail ($349) includes a clay bar to remove it and ceramic wax for about 6 months of protection. If there are swirls or oxidation too, 2-Step Paint Correction starts at $500.

Do I need to leave a hose or outlet available for you?

No. We bring our own water tank and generator. Just make sure there's room to park next to the car and open all its doors.

Is my pontoon priced the same as a smaller boat?

Marine Full Refresh starts at $399, and pricing can vary by size and condition. We confirm your quote before we start. Send a photo when you book and we can give you a better idea upfront.
