Dr Detail Car Wash & Express Detail Ctr

I mean yes you get a car wash here. There are better places though. Have to pay for vacuum’s. Other places there free. It is like a dump by the vacuums there is trash scattered every where. If you care and like cars just don’t go though the car wash. I pay for the platinum and im not sure it is any different then the silver. I think they just give everyone the silver wash no matter what you oay.
Also if you buy the monthly pass it will charge your credit card after the month is over and it is a very hard to contact them over the phone to cancel the membership once you find out about it

I agree with Brandon K. — this is a very good car wash, much better than Rojo and less expensive. In particular the complex alloy wheels on my Civic are *sparkling* no brake dust on them at all. We did both family cars at the same time and even the car my teenagers beat on came out looking 500% better. There was no line and I went on MLK Day. Will be back in the spring for some express detailing… hint: if you add clay bar service you get 5 stars! Really though — this is a great car wash with nice staff.

Very good car wash. Yes, most of the time you will have to wait– yet usually it’s worth it. For some reason it cleans EVERYTHING on your car, as Rojo’s in Norwood doesn’t and Scrub-​A-​Dub in Roslindale doesn’t (yet I do like the $ 6.00 off coupon for Scrub-​A-​Dub, so I will still go there…). Also remember to bring your receipt from the Walpole Big Y or Walmart — you will get $ 1.00 off!

Dr. Detail in Walpole is fantastic. I drove in without an appointment and immediately got in for an exterior wash and express interior detail service. The employees are prompt about greeting you once you drive in, friendly, and they tell you what the cost of the services will be up front. This place is CLEAN, neat, waiting rooms are tidy and they offer free internet and computers. The employees are very professional – Eduardo is the best. The wash was definitely up to par (I have a black vehicle, so I’m picky), and the express interior detail great as well… just the express service was so good, it made me want to go back for the more expansive hour-​long detail soon (and I will!). My fiancé has been entrusting Dr. Detail with his BMWs and Escalade for detail services for years – I should have listened to him sooner! Great results. Very reasonable prices. Friendly atmosphere. Go here over Dean Street Car Wash any day!

Being a fanatic with all my cars I would highly recommend this car wash. They definitely maintain there washing brushes and are not black and scummy like a lot of other car washes. Remember all that black stuff on the pads that run up against your car is dirt that is putting scratches up and down your car.

Nice job for the price! I will be back!

I read the older mediocre reviews which compelled me to write my first ever Unilocal review! I think this place is great. The exterior wash is the best I’ve ever had from a drive through wash. I drive a modest, smallish SUV that i like to keep reasonably clean, but i’m not OCD. I’m really pleased with the results– even the hubcaps, which I can never seem to get really clean myself, sparkle. I also recently tried the interior detail service and was pleased with the results and the reasonable price. The staff is very nice, polite and professional. As a bonus, they offer a discount if you bring a receipt from Walmart, Big Y, or Dunkin Donuts, all if which are a stone’s throw from the car wash. Not sure if different people were running the place when the previous reviews were written but I would recommend this car wash to anyone.

I’ve been here 2 or 3 times and I’ll be going back because I have gift certificates. In general I feel as though the machine wash at this place is better than most. I’ve been to several drive-​thru carwashes, touchless, etc. and found them to be mostly comprable.
In general I feel as though if you’re going in to a drive-​thru car wash, you’re looking for a quick clean and not a thorough clean. For a thorough clean and wax, I’ll do it myself. I’m too picky about my car when it’s clean (and it’s not often) that I just wouldn’t be happy if someone else were to do it for me.
But a drive-​thru carwash is perfect for the winter. It keeps me warm and dry.

This review is just about the car wash, and not the detailing services, which I haven’t used and therefore can’t speak to. :)
Summary: I suppose if you have a lighter color car that doesn’t show dirt as fast, or you just don’t care that much, Dr. Detail’s wash will work just fine for you. Otherwise, it’s really nothing special.
Soapbox version:
I’m a little obsessive about my car, and since it’s black, when it’s dirty it just drives me crazy. Today it was a ghost of its former self (literally — it was encrusted in salt, and looking at me very sadly and resentfully), so I wound up at Dr. Detail.
You have a choice of several washes; today I chose the $ 11.99 one, which is your basic wash, no vacuum, nothing really special about it (they do also have a very very basic $ 7.99 exterior wash). I drove up, handed the guy my Amex, put the car in neutral, and was sent through the wash, wistfully remembering how exciting this was when I was a kid, and how now it’s just something you do to get your car clean. Those big blue brushes would have had me screaming in delight when I was 7. :)
When the ride was over I drove into one of the self-​serve vacuum/​rug shampoo spots to check it out. The first thing I noticed when I got out of the car was that the blue and green sparklies in my paint were all back, shining happy in the bright sunlight. On the whole, the car was pretty clean.
Dry, however, it was not, and with the roads totally powdery with salt right now, that’s bad since by the time I got home it would be completely spotted again. So I grabbed the cloths out of the back and went to work. It took me about 15 minutes to get everything dry, and my front end was still a bit dirty, especially around the fogs (the scoop was clean though, which I wasn’t expecting).
Anyway, when I add it all up, I have to say that Dean St. Car Wash is a better deal. If I fill up with gas at Rojo first, the Gold wash is only $ 4 more than this one cost, the interior gets vacuumed, the wheels and front end get a bit of a scrub (albeit perfunctory), and it gets hand-​dried afterward. I still wind up doing some hand-​drying myself anyway, but not nearly to the extent I did today (I had to work on it more when I got it home — I DID say I’m obsessive, okay?).
