See Your Price Before You Book

Mission's vehicle mix runs from compact family sedans to full-size crew cab trucks and long-wheelbase work vans, and the size of what you're driving directly affects how long a proper detail takes. A pickup truck with a muddy bed and a sap-covered roof requires meaningfully more time and product than a standard sedan — so pricing reflects that honestly.

1. Choose Your Vehicle

Start by selecting the vehicle type that matches what you drive, whether that's a daily commuter sedan, a family SUV, or a work truck that's been earning its keep on Mission's back roads.

2. Pick Your Package

Choose the package that fits what your vehicle actually needs right now, from a maintenance detail to a full interior and exterior restoration.

3. Confirm Online

Your total is confirmed on screen before you book — no estimates, no ranges, just a clear number you can count on.

No Upsells. No Bait & Switch.

You'll see your exact price before anything is booked — no surprises added on after we see your vehicle. What you're quoted when you select your vehicle and package is what you pay, full stop.

Why Mission Vehicles Get Dirty So Fast

Mission's hillside neighbourhoods and surrounding forest canopy turn a parked vehicle into a collection point for sap, pine needles, and pollen within days. Add the mud kicked up on Stave Lake Street and the grime of a daily Highway 7 commute, and your vehicle is fighting a losing battle before the week is out.

Forest Debris Never Stops Falling

Park anywhere near Mission's hillside streets and you'll find your hood buried under pine needles, broken twigs, and leaf matter by morning. The tree canopy that makes neighbourhoods off Dewdney Trunk Road so scenic is the same reason truck beds and SUV rooflines collect debris year-round. It works into door seals, clogs drains, and scratches paint when the wind shifts it across your panels.

Tree Sap Bonds to Everything

Mission's conifers and deciduous trees shed sticky sap from spring through fall, and it lands on whatever is parked beneath them — work vans, pickup trucks, minivans, it doesn't discriminate. Once sap bakes onto a hood or roof in a stretch of Fraser Valley sun, a regular car wash won't touch it. Left too long on paint or glass, it etches into the surface and becomes a much costlier problem.

Pollen Coats Every Surface

Spring in Mission means a yellow-green film across every vehicle that sits outside overnight, from family SUVs on residential streets to work trucks parked along Murray Street. The pollen here is relentless — it settles into trim gaps, coats windshields, and leaves a hazy residue on dark paint that looks dirty even an hour after a rinse. Drivers commuting west on Highway 7 toward Abbotsford deal with a fresh layer collecting before they even reach the on-ramp.

💰 See My Price

Common Vehicle Problems We See in Mission

Mission roads run the full spectrum — smooth commuter stretches on Highway 7, rain-soaked bends on Dewdney Trunk Road, and muddy back routes near Stave Lake that test any vehicle's interior and exterior. That variety of conditions stacks up damage faster than most drivers notice until it's already ground in.

🌲 Tree Sap Damage

Where it shows up: Hood, roof, trunk lid, windshield, and side mirrors. Mission's forested streets mean sap drips land on whatever sits below, and the Fraser Valley's warmer stretches bake it into the clear coat fast. Once hardened, it pulls paint if removed carelessly and leaves dull marks on glass.

🌿 Pollen Coating

Where it shows up: All horizontal painted surfaces, windshield, wiper blades, and door handles. The seasonal pollen bloom across Mission is thick enough to leave a visible layer on any vehicle parked outside, from minivans in driveways to pickup trucks left overnight near the hillside. It's mildly abrasive when rubbed in dry and can cause fine scratches if wiped without proper lubrication.

🥾 Mud in Carpets

Where it shows up: Floor mats, carpet fibres, and under seat tracks. Trades workers and outdoor enthusiasts returning from routes near Stave Lake or logging roads bring serious mud into cab interiors and cargo areas. It packs into carpet backing and hardens as it dries, leaving stains that vacuuming alone won't fix.

💧 Hard Water Spots

Where it shows up: Windows, paint panels, and chrome or black trim. Mission's rainfall is consistent, and as water dries on vehicle surfaces it leaves behind mineral deposits that etch into glass and dull paint over time. Vehicles regularly driven on Highway 7 pick up road spray that compounds the spotting, especially on darker finishes.

🔩 Brake Dust Buildup

Where it shows up: Wheel faces, spokes, and wheel well lips. Stop-and-go driving between Mission and Abbotsford, plus the downhill grades coming off Dewdney Trunk Road, accelerates brake dust accumulation on wheels. Left unaddressed, the iron particles bond to the wheel surface and require more than a rinse to fully remove.

🌧️ Water Staining

Where it shows up: Door sills, window seals, lower body panels, and interior trim near door openings. Mission's near-constant fall and winter rain runs down panels and pools in seams, leaving tide marks and mineral staining on paint and interior surfaces alike. Vehicles parked on sloped driveways or gravel lots near Murray Street tend to show lower-panel water staining the worst.

Mission Car Detailing Packages

Most vehicles coming to us from Mission need more than a basic wash — tree sap, embedded pollen, and mud-packed carpets call for proper decontamination and extraction, not just a wipe-down. Our packages are built to handle what Fraser Valley driving actually does to a vehicle, inside and out.

Interior Basic

Best for: lighter maintenance cleans, commuter cars, and vehicles that need a fresh reset without heavy stains, pet hair, or deep shampooing.

  • Full interior vacuum of seats, carpets, mats, and trunk/cargo area
  • Floor mats removed, cleaned, and reinstalled
  • Dashboard, console, cupholders, door panels, and trim wiped down
  • Interior glass cleaned for better visibility
  • Light dust, crumbs, loose debris, and everyday buildup removed
  • Final walkaround before payment

Why it helps

Regular maintenance cleaning keeps dust, crumbs, light salt, and daily grime from becoming embedded in carpets, seats, and tight interior areas.

Most Popular

Interior Deep Clean

Best for: dirty daily drivers, winter salt residue, family vehicles, food spills, pet hair, stained cloth, and interiors that need more than a surface wipe.

  • Thorough vacuuming of seats, carpets, trunk, floor mats, and tight crevices
  • Compressed-air blowout for cracks, seat rails, vents, and hard-to-reach areas
  • Fabric-safe stain pre-treatment for common spills and traffic marks
  • Agitation of carpets, mats, and cloth upholstery where needed
  • Hot-water extraction or shampooing for fabric surfaces where appropriate
  • Steam cleaning for cupholders, vents, trim, door jambs, and high-touch areas
  • Leather and vinyl surfaces cleaned carefully when applicable
  • Interior glass cleaned streak-free
  • Final inspection with the customer before payment

Why extraction matters

Vehicle carpets trap salt, sand, dust, food particles, and moisture below the surface. Pre-treatment and extraction help lift contamination from the fibers instead of only making the top layer look clean.

Full Detail: Interior + Exterior

Best for: vehicles that need both the interior restored and the exterior cleaned in the same mobile appointment.

  • Everything included in the Interior Deep Clean package
  • Exterior hand wash and careful drying
  • Wheel faces, tires, and accessible rim areas cleaned
  • Tire dressing applied for a clean finished look
  • Exterior glass cleaned
  • Lower-panel road film and surface grime addressed during wash
  • Door jambs and common touch points cleaned where accessible
  • Final exterior wipe-down and customer walkaround

Why wheels need special attention

Brake dust is abrasive and clings to wheels, spokes, and lower panels. Dedicated wheel-safe cleaners and brushes help remove buildup without treating wheels like regular body panels.

Who Uses Our Mobile Detailing Service

Mission's mix of commuters, tradespeople, and growing families means every kind of vehicle ends up needing a serious clean. Arete's mobile service fits the real schedules of real people who don't have time to sit at a car wash between Dewdney Trunk Road and the West Coast Express platform.

Busy Professionals

If you're catching the West Coast Express into Vancouver or driving Highway 7 to work in Abbotsford every day, your vehicle takes a beating and your calendar stays full. Arete details your car while you're at your desk at Mission Memorial Hospital or School District No. 75 — you come out to something spotless.

Parents & Families

Between school runs, hockey gear, and weekend trips out to Stave Lake, family vehicles in Mission accumulate the kind of mess that a drive-through wash never fully touches. Arete restores the interior so it's actually clean, not just damp.

Condo & Apartment Residents

Mission's newer condo developments in Silverdale and Cedar Valley include parking stalls that work perfectly for a professional mobile detail. We come to your building, work in your assigned space, and leave without disrupting a single neighbour.

Rideshare & Delivery Drivers

Running deliveries or rideshare shifts across Mission and into Abbotsford means your vehicle's interior faces daily passenger traffic and road grime all week long. Regular detailing with Arete keeps your ratings high and your cabin presentable without pulling you off the clock.

Tradespeople & Work Vehicles

Trades rigs and work vans covering Mission's construction sites, acreages, and rural properties accumulate a level of dirt that takes real equipment to address. Arete handles the heavy cleanup so your vehicle looks professional when you pull up to the next job.

Luxury Vehicle Owners

A well-kept luxury vehicle deserves more than a generic wash on Murray Street — it needs product-matched care from a detailer who knows what's actually on the paint. Arete brings the right chemistry and technique to your driveway in Hatzic or wherever you're parked in Mission.

💰 See My Price

Vehicles We Detail

Mission roads put a wide range of vehicles to work — from stripped-down commuter sedans to loaded pickup trucks hauling gear to Stave Falls and beyond. Vehicle size, interior complexity, and how the vehicle is actually used all factor into what a proper detail takes and what it costs.

Sedans & Coupes

Sedans used for the daily Highway 7 or West Coast Express commute collect road film, coffee spills, and interior dust at a steady pace. A full detail resets the interior and exterior so the car feels new again rather than like a rolling extension of the workday.

SUVs & Crossovers

SUVs in Mission carry everything — kids, camping gear, muddy boots from trails near Stave Lake, and grocery runs from Lepp Farm Market. The third row and cargo area need the same attention as the rest of the cabin, and that's exactly where Arete doesn't cut corners.

Pickup Trucks

Pickup trucks are the workhorse of Mission, earning their grime on gravel roads, acreage properties, and job sites across the Fraser Valley foothills. Arete details the cab interior, the bed surround, and every panel so your truck looks sharp even when the work is rough.

Minivans

Mission families rely on minivans to move between Cedar Valley, Hatzic, and every activity in between — and the interior shows it. Seven-seat cleaning is thorough work, and Arete treats every row and every crevice rather than skipping what's hard to reach.

Luxury Vehicles

Luxury vehicles parked in Mission's established neighbourhoods need detailing that matches the quality of the vehicle itself. Arete uses surface-appropriate products and careful technique to protect fine leather, soft-close panels, and flawless paint without compromise.

Commercial Vehicles

Work vans and utility vehicles running service routes through Mission and the surrounding Fraser Valley accumulate grime that reflects directly on the business behind the logo on the door. Arete cleans commercial vehicles thoroughly so the impression you make at every job site is the right one.

💰 See My Price

Where We Can Detail Your Vehicle

One of the most practical things about Arete is that your vehicle doesn't have to move — we come to it wherever it sits in Mission. Driveways, condo stalls, apartment lots, and office parking areas all work as the detailing location.

Driveways

A private driveway in Silverdale, Cedar Valley, or anywhere across Mission gives Arete a clean, spacious environment to do thorough work on your vehicle. No time wasted relocating — your detailer arrives, sets up, and gets to work while you stay home.

Condo Garages

Covered parking stalls in Mission's newer condo buildings provide a sheltered, consistent environment that works well for a full detail. Arete arrives prepared for the space and completes the service without requiring any building amenities.

Apartment Parking Lots

Open apartment lots in Downtown Mission and surrounding areas are everyday workspaces for Arete — flat, accessible, and convenient. We bring everything needed and leave the stall cleaner than we found it.

Office Parking Lots

Office and workplace parking along the Hurd Street corridor or near Mission Memorial Hospital means your vehicle gets detailed while you're on the clock. You put the hours into work; we put the hours into your car.

Street Parking

Residential street parking in Hatzic, Stave Falls, and Downtown Mission works as a detailing location when it's accessible and gives us reasonable working room. If you're unsure whether your spot will work, just mention it at booking and we'll sort it out.

Commercial Lots

Commercial parking areas across Mission's retail and business districts are practical locations for a mobile detail during business hours. Arete works efficiently in shared spaces and is fully self-contained so there's no impact on the lot around us.

What Makes A Professional Detail Different

A drive-through wash removes loose surface dirt — it doesn't touch the ground-in grime, organic debris, and interior buildup that Mission's roads and seasons produce. A professional detail from Arete addresses the vehicle completely, using the right tools and products for each surface rather than one solution for everything.

Better Interior Access

Mission's most common vehicles — extended-cab trucks, three-row SUVs, and loaded minivans — have interior geometry that basic cleaning tools can't fully reach. Arete uses detailing brushes, air tools, and purpose-built extractors to clean what's actually inside the vehicle, not just what's visible at arm's length.

Fabric-Safe Cleaning

Fabric seats and carpets in family vehicles carry stains from Stave Lake trips, hockey gear, and everyday life that require both the right chemistry and enough dwell time to lift properly. Arete matches the cleaning approach to the material so fabrics come clean without being damaged or left overly wet.

Surface-Specific Products

Rubber trim along door seals, plastic cladding on work trucks, painted bumpers, and glass all respond differently to cleaning — one product applied everywhere produces mediocre results on all of them. Arete uses surface-specific chemistry so every material on your vehicle gets what it actually needs.

Steam & High-Touch Areas

High-touch areas like steering wheels, gear selectors, door pulls, and centre console controls accumulate bacteria and grime that wipes alone don't fully address. Arete uses steam to sanitize these surfaces properly, leaving them clean in a way that holds up between details.

Wheel-Safe Cleaning

Wheels on vehicles driving Mission's wet roads, gravel shoulders near Stave Lake, and muddy rural routes build up brake dust and caked debris that bonds to the surface over time. Arete uses appropriate wheel cleaners and brushes to clear the face, barrel, and lug areas without damaging the finish.

Final Walkaround

Before the job is considered done, your detailer reviews the vehicle with you panel by panel and surface by surface. Any area that isn't meeting the standard gets addressed on the spot — there's no rushing past details to get to the next booking.

Mission Seasonal Car Detailing Guide

Mission's position in the Fraser Valley foothills means vehicles face real environmental pressure in every season — wet winters, heavy pollen springs, dusty summers, and debris-heavy falls. Keeping up with those cycles is what separates a vehicle that holds its condition from one that gradually wears out from neglect.

Winter

Heavy winter rain along Highway 7 and Dewdney Trunk Road coats vehicles in road grime and organic runoff that bonds to paint and trim if it's left to sit. Tree canopy over residential streets in Hatzic and Cedar Valley adds a steady layer of wet debris to rooflines, hoods, and window seals throughout the season. A winter detail clears that accumulation and applies protective layers before the damage works its way into the finish.

Spring

Spring in Mission delivers one of the most aggressive pollen and sap seasons in the Fraser Valley — every vehicle parked under a tree in Silverdale or Stave Falls knows it by mid-April. Sap left on paint for more than a few days begins to etch the clear coat, and pollen worked into wiper blades scratches glass. A spring detail removes biological contamination properly and protects surfaces before the warm weather sets the damage in.

Summer

Dry summer conditions in Mission kick up dust on the gravel roads and rural routes around Stave Lake and outlying acreages, coating dark paint in a fine layer that scratches if wiped dry. The UV exposure during long Fraser Valley summer days accelerates fading on unprotected exterior trim and dashboards. A summer detail decontaminates paint and refreshes protection before the sun does its work.

Fall

Fall brings the same heavy rain as winter but adds a thick layer of leaf debris, wet organic matter, and road film from the first seasonal storms on Highway 7 and local routes. Decomposing leaves hold moisture against paint, glass, and rubber seals — the kind of contact that causes staining and premature wear. Getting a fall detail before conditions fully set in protects the vehicle through the wet months ahead.

Primary Areas We Serve in Mission

Arete Car Detailing proudly serves every corner of Mission, BC — from the riverside neighbourhoods near the Fraser to the hillside communities tucked into the Fraser Valley foothills. Whether you're in Downtown Mission or out past Stave Falls, we come to you with everything needed for a showroom-quality detail.

Downtown Mission

Vehicles parked along Murray Street and around the core pick up road grime, tree sap, and the constant film that comes with rainy Fraser Valley winters. Arete brings a full mobile detail right to your driveway or parking spot, restoring your paint and interior without you leaving the neighbourhood.

Silverdale

Silverdale's growing residential streets mean more construction dust, clay-heavy soil, and new-development debris grinding into paint and floor mats. Our detailers tackle that stubborn Fraser Valley buildup with professional-grade products so your vehicle looks its best in one of Mission's fastest-growing communities.

Hatzic

Drivers in Hatzic deal with muddy back roads, seasonal flooding runoff, and the kind of organic debris that collects under wheel wells and in carpet fibres after any off-road shortcut. Arete's thorough interior and exterior packages are built for exactly the conditions Hatzic residents face year-round.

Cedar Valley

Cedar Valley families loading up minivans and SUVs for hockey practice or weekend trail runs know how quickly an interior can go from clean to chaotic. Arete's mobile service arrives at your Cedar Valley home and handles everything from shampooed seats to polished door jambs while you carry on with your day.

Stave Falls

Out near Stave Falls, vehicles face logging road dust, pine needle buildup, and the kind of deep-set mud that standard car washes simply can't reach. Arete's detail packages go well beyond a rinse, extracting grit from every crevice and protecting your paint against the elements of rural Mission living.

💰 See My Price

Frequently Serviced Mission Areas & Landmarks

Mission is full of busy gathering spots where your vehicle sits for hours — and Arete's mobile service means we can meet you wherever your day takes you. From hospital parking lots to recreation centre drop-offs, we detail on your schedule at the locations that work best for you.

Mission Leisure Centre

While you're swimming laps or watching the kids' skating session at the Mission Leisure Centre, your vehicle could be getting a full professional detail in the parking lot. Arete coordinates around your activity schedule so you walk out to a freshly detailed car, not another errand on your to-do list.

Mission Memorial Hospital

Healthcare workers and visitors logging long hours at Mission Memorial Hospital deserve to return to a clean, fresh-smelling vehicle at the end of a demanding shift. Arete's mobile detailers can service your car in the hospital parking area, making the most of time your vehicle would otherwise spend sitting idle.

Fraser River Heritage Park

Vehicles parked near Fraser River Heritage Park collect cottonwood fluff, tree sap, and the fine silt that drifts up from the riverbank — all of which bond stubbornly to paint and glass. Arete removes every trace of that riverside residue and seals your exterior so it's protected for the next visit.

Mission Raceway Park

Race days and motorsport events at Mission Raceway Park leave vehicles coated in rubber dust, exhaust film, and the general grime of a high-energy outdoor venue. Arete's exterior detail packages are a natural fit for enthusiasts who want their own ride looking as sharp as anything on the track.

Do you service Hatzic and Silverdale in Mission?

Absolutely — Arete Car Detailing services all Mission neighbourhoods including Hatzic, Silverdale, Downtown Mission, Cedar Valley, Stave Falls, and Durieu. If you're in Mission, we come to you.

Can you detail near Westminster Abbey or Mission Raceway Park in Mission?

What package handles muddy back roads and logging route grime in Mission?

For Mission's rural roads, muddy trails, and the clay-heavy soil common around Hatzic and Stave Falls, we recommend our Full Detail package, which includes deep carpet extraction, thorough wheel well cleaning, and a full exterior decontamination wash to lift embedded road grime.

What package is best for regular maintenance in Mission?

For Mission drivers who want to stay on top of the year-round rain and organic debris, our Essential Detail package is a great recurring choice — it keeps your exterior protected and your interior fresh between deeper seasonal cleans.

Do you detail SUVs, minivans, trucks, and luxury vehicles in Mission?

Yes — Arete details every vehicle type in Mission, from the family minivans and four-wheel-drive trucks that handle Dewdney Trunk Road daily to luxury sedans and performance vehicles. Pricing adjusts by vehicle size and is always shown upfront.

Why do I need to click See My Price?

Clicking See My Price gives you an instant, exact quote based on your specific vehicle size and the services you choose — no vague estimates, no waiting for a callback. You'll know exactly what you're paying before you book.

Will the price change after I book in Mission?

No — the price you see when you book is the price you pay. Arete does not add surprise charges after the appointment; your quote is locked in at the time of booking.

Do you upsell at the appointment?

No. Our detailers focus entirely on delivering the service you booked, not on pressuring you to add extras at the door. Any additional services are always your choice, made in advance through the booking process.

What does the satisfaction guarantee mean?

If any part of your detail doesn't meet the standard you expect, contact us and we will make it right — no hassle and no argument. Your satisfaction is the measure of a job well done, and we stand behind every appointment.

Do you have a detailing shop in Mission?

Arete is a fully mobile service, meaning we bring the equipment and supplies directly to your home, workplace, or preferred location in Mission. There's no shop to drive to — the detail comes to you.

Do I need to provide water or power in Mission?

In most cases, access to a standard outdoor water tap and a power outlet is helpful and appreciated. If your location in Mission doesn't have either, just let us know when booking and we'll discuss the best solution for your situation.

Can you detail my car in a condo or apartment garage in Mission?

Yes — Arete can work in covered parking garages, including those at Mission condo and apartment buildings. We just need enough clearance to move around the vehicle safely; contact us if you have specific questions about your building's setup.

Can you clean a vehicle parked on the street in Mission?

Yes — as long as there's reasonable access around the vehicle and local parking rules permit it, we can detail your car parked on a Mission street. Just provide the location when booking.

Do you remove mud, logging road dust, and construction dirt from carpets?

Yes — Mission's back roads, logging routes, and active construction zones send a lot of grit and clay into floor mats and carpet fibres. Our hot-water extraction and deep vacuum process is designed to pull that embedded debris out thoroughly, leaving carpets genuinely clean.

Can you remove every stain?

We treat all stains with professional-grade products and achieve excellent results in the vast majority of cases. However, some stains that have deeply set over time — particularly in cloth or carpet — may be significantly improved but not completely invisible. We'll always be honest with you about what's achievable.

Do you remove pet hair?

Yes — pet hair removal is part of our interior detail packages. Mission's many dog-friendly trails and outdoor spaces mean this is a very common request, and our tools are specifically suited to lifting embedded hair from seats, carpets, and cargo areas.

How long does a Mission detailing appointment take?

Appointment length depends on the package and vehicle size, but most details range from approximately 1.5 to 4 hours. You'll receive a realistic time estimate when you book so you can plan your day accordingly.

Can you detail work trucks or fleet vehicles in Mission?

Yes — Arete regularly details work trucks and commercial vehicles for Mission's trades workers and business owners. Whether it's one truck or several, contact us to discuss fleet scheduling and we'll find an approach that minimises downtime.

Can you clean rideshare or delivery vehicles in Mission?

Absolutely — rideshare and delivery drivers running routes through Mission and along Highway 7 into Metro Vancouver rely on clean, odour-free interiors for their ratings and professional image. Arete offers packages that efficiently refresh high-use interiors on a schedule that works around your driving hours.

What should I remove before the detailer arrives?

Please remove any personal valuables, important documents, car seats you'd prefer to handle yourself, and any loose items that might slow down the clean. The less clutter in the vehicle, the more thoroughly we can detail every surface.

Do you clean child car seats?

We clean around installed car seats and will wipe down hard surfaces, but we do not remove or reinstall child safety seats as that involves safety-critical fitment. We recommend removing the seat before the appointment if you'd like the area beneath it fully cleaned.

What happens if it rains in Mission?

Rain is a fact of life in Mission, and our detailers are experienced working in wet Fraser Valley conditions. For exterior work, we'll assess conditions on the day; if weather prevents us from completing the exterior to our standard, we'll reschedule that portion at no extra charge.

Can you detail luxury vehicles in Mission?

Yes — Arete uses paint-safe, product-appropriate techniques for luxury and high-end vehicles. Whether it's a European sedan or a luxury SUV navigating Dewdney Trunk Road, your vehicle will be treated with the care and precision its finish demands.

Do you clean leather seats?

Yes — leather seats are cleaned with dedicated leather-safe products and conditioned to prevent cracking and drying, which is especially important given the temperature swings and humidity that Mission vehicles experience through the seasons.

Do you shampoo cloth seats and carpets?

Yes — shampooing cloth seats and hot-water carpet extraction are included in our interior detail packages. This is one of the most impactful parts of the service, especially for Mission vehicles that carry mud, moisture, and outdoor debris regularly.

Do you clean exterior wheels and tires?

Yes — wheels and tires are cleaned as part of our exterior packages. Mission's mix of paved highways, gravel side roads, and muddy rural routes means wheels accumulate serious brake dust and grime, and we treat them thoroughly.

Can you remove odors from a Mission vehicle?

Yes — we address odours at the source through deep cleaning, extraction, and odour-neutralising treatments. Whether it's wet dog, mildew from rainy Mission winters, food spills, or smoke, our process targets the cause rather than masking it with fragrance.

Do you clean vomit or biohazards?

Yes — we handle biohazard cleaning including vomit, using appropriate sanitation products and protective protocols. This service may carry an additional charge; please mention it at the time of booking so we can prepare accordingly.

How do I pay?

Payment is processed securely online through our booking system. We accept all major credit and debit cards, and your payment details are handled through an encrypted platform for your security.

Is there a cancellation fee?

We ask for reasonable notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. Please review the cancellation policy shown during booking; cancellations made with sufficient notice are fully accommodated without penalty.

Can you come today in Mission?

Same-day availability in Mission depends on current scheduling, but we do our best to accommodate last-minute bookings. Use the online booking tool to check today's available slots in your area of Mission.

What if I am not happy with something?

Contact us right away and we will return to address anything that doesn't meet your expectations at no additional cost. Arete's reputation is built on the quality of every single detail, and we take any concern seriously.

Is mobile detailing better than going to a shop in Mission?

For most Mission residents, mobile detailing is the more convenient and equally thorough option — no driving across town on Highway 7, no waiting in a shop, and no wasted half-day. Arete brings professional equipment and products directly to your driveway, delivering shop-quality results wherever you are.

How often should I detail my car in Mission?

Given Mission's year-round rainfall, muddy back roads, tree canopy debris, and highway commuting conditions, we recommend a full detail every three to four months, with a maintenance clean in between. Vehicles regularly driven on Dewdney Trunk Road or rural routes may benefit from more frequent attention to protect paint and keep interiors fresh.
