Wonderful outcome for a tired looking 2001 Subaru Legacy. Due to my schedule, Robert was able to meet me on Sunday to drop off my car. I am so pleased with the outcome. My 2001 Subaru Legacy looks new which is a far cry from what it did look like. The car has a new life look about it. I feel as if I am driving a new vehicle. Thanks so much Robert for an excellent job and a really great price.
Description of Work: Robert was so professional. In addition to the detailing, I had some touch up paint work, for a much more reasonable price than I would have paid at an auto body shop. I got all of my 'mistakes' painted away plus a fantastic complete detailing job.

Great. Initially got an appointment for the next day as I was putting my car up for sale. I posted the car ad and had an immediate response. I called Ace back and got an appointment for the same day, took the car in and it was finished in 1 hour 45 minutes.

Once again, I am very impressed and pleased with this service. Robert has detailed cars for us in the past and I know that he is highly responsible and someone that a I feel very safe having to my home, so I was concerned when I found out that he was sending two employees instead of doing the job himself. However both Jimmy and David were very professional. They spent a bit more than three hours doing the work and brought everything they needed to do the job, even the water! My car was absolutely spotless when the job was completed. It looked brand new and it sold the same day!
Description of Work: Fully detailed a 2000 four door Ford Focus. Cleaned exterior (including wheels and tires), interior, engine compartment, and touched up long scratch where the car had been keyed.

I was able to schedule the appointment within a week, and Robert was willing to drop me off & pick me up at a nearby shopping center while they worked on my car. The work was completed in less time than was estimated. However, there were still spots (bugs and tar) on the bumpers, and the lower portion of the door panels were clearly gray in color, rather than white. After I pointed it out, Robert used polishing compound and successfully finished the job. I pointed out food crumbs between the front seats and the console. After pointing out the items Robert also blew out and re-vacuumed the area between the seats and the console. When asked if they actually cleaned the carpet, I was told it was 'spot cleaned'. The ACE web site advertises "Apply high foaming carpet shampoo to all carpeted surfaces. Scrub with pressure to create foam. Extract clean with vapor steam and vacuum suction." The paint / bumper repairs were also not especially well done, this is not their strength.
Description of Work: A full interior and exterior detail was done on my car (4 door sedan). The car is white and had a large amount of road tar on the lower door panels. I also agreed to pay for ACE to touch up paint & nicks in the bumper where black rubber was exposed beneath the white surface. The cleaning needs of the interior were consistent with not having been detailed for several years, however, there were no spills or stains that needed special attention.

1. THE REMAINING ROAD TAR WAS NOT VISIBLE EXCEPT FROM AN EXCEPTIONALLY LOW PERSPECTIVE. 2. THE MEMBER'S CARPETS WERE SHAMPOOED. SOME DEBRIS IN A TIGHT SPOT BETWEEN HER SEATS AND THE CENTER CONSOLE WAS MISSED BUT QUICKLY REMOVED. 3. THE MEMBER DECLINED A PROPER SANDING AND RESPRAY OF HER BUMPER ($195) AND CHOSE INSTEAD A QUICK APPLICATION OF TOUCH UP PAINT BY A SMALL PAINT BRUSH ($15). SUCH REPAIRS CANNOT MATCH THE QUALITY OF RESPRAYING BUT, OFFER AN AFFORDABLE 4-FOOT-AWAY IMPROVEMENT. DESPITE TWO RECENT REVIEWS IMPLYING A DECLINE IN OUR QUALITY, ACR IS TRYING AS HARD AS EVER TO EARN THE BUSINESS OF ANGIE'S LIST MEMBERS. YOU WILL ALWAYS RECEIVE OUR BEST EFFORT AND QUALITY.

I called Robert at Ace Car Reconditioning a week ahead to request an appointment to have our Audi A4 detailed, explaining in detail what needed attention. It was agreed that we would bring the car out on Monday August 20 at 7:15 AM. My wife and I drove our two cars out for the scheduled appointment only to find no one in the office. We called Robert and he said he didn't have us down. I never make appointments I don't keep, but Robert does. My advice is not to make an appointment at all, but if you must, don't make it on Monday in case Robert needs to recover from his weekend.

THIS APPOINTMENT WAS RECORDED IN MY WINDOWS MOBILE CELL PHONE AND LOST--ALONG WITH ONE OTHER APPOINTMENT--DURING SYNCHRONIZATION WITH MY COMPUTER. THE MEMBER HUNG UP WITHOUT GIVING ME A CHANCE TO OFFER THIS EXPLANATION. I WAS ACTUALLY JUST 10 MINUTES AWAY FROM THE OFFICE AT THE TIME OF OUR CONVERSATION. WE HAVE RETURNED TO USING PAD AND PAPER TO RECORD APPOINTMENTS. YOU ARE WELCOME TO HAVE YOUR CAR DETAILED FOR FREE AT YOUR HOME, AS IS ANYONE WE SHORT CHANGE. WE CERTAINLY DESERVE THIS F AND ENCOURAGE ALL ANGIE'S LIST MEMBERS TO POST THE TRUTH--GOOD OR BAD--ABOUT SERVICE PROVIDERS HERE. ROBERT

Mr. Keppel has detailed our vehicles several times over the past couple of years. The quality of work is always high, the service is prompt and professional and the charge compares well to others with the added plus of service at our home.
Description of Work: Our van and pickup have been detailed by Ace several times. We also had a little paint touch up that worked out great.

Job went great. ACE came out with everything they needed to perform the work including water and power, which I was prepared to provide since them coming here saved me the cost (time, wear&tear, and fuel costs) associated with pulling a 34ft fifth wheel RV, 50 miles RT. Very convienient service option that was very appreciated. Quality of the work was great also and all three detailers very professional in their demeanor. Over all I got my money's worth although I might have had the job done elsewhere for a few $s less but not at my residence, and I am sure not done better than ACE.
Description of Work: 1. Full exterior detail of a 2005 34 ft. 5th wheel RV, with two slider room. extensions. 2. Full interior and exterior detail of a 2001 Ford Explorer 2 door Sport. 3. Work performed in my driveway across from PDX in Vancouver Wa.

Robert and his company did a great job on cleaning, detailing and fixing-up my 1987 Honda CRX. The car was dirty on the outside and had a rough surface from embedded tree stuff. They were able to get it completely clean and smooth again. All crevices and hard to reach areas were blasted out with the power wash. It has not looked this clean in 20 years. All areas on the inside of the car are clean and free from dust. The carpet is clean again and the seats look great again. They applied touch up paint to chips and dings, and even came back a second day to do a more major touch up to remove latex paint splatters that were on the side of the car. The car looks really good again! They did a great job and were right on time getting to my house to start the work. Very quick and prompt responses to my emails. I was amazed at how quickly I was able to set up an appointment and have the work completed. I am very happy with the work and recommend them highly.

Two guys from Ace arrived right at 9 am with a truck equipped with electricity and water to detail my 1995 4 runner. It had never been detailed before and they worked for 3 hours giving it a thorough cleaning. They also gave me a list of places and prices for new floor mats. I was really happy with the results.

I explained to Robert I was detailing the Jeep to put it for sale. In addition to the regular detail, Robert recommended cleaning the engine, because buyers always peek under the hood. I took the Jeep to his shop and he did the work thoroughly and on time. My car sold to the first person who looked at it. Great value.

Was very pleased with job done. I took my car to the shop rather than have them come to my home.
Description of Work: Requested auto detail as well as leather seat repair to my driver seat. Robert quoted me over the phone, when I brought the car in he was very close to the original bid. He also painted part of my driver side door, quoted me a price, was not totally happy with his job and charged me less than quoted amount. I will recommend him to friends! Great job, very happy with service.

The outcome looked excellent. The man doing the work seemed less than enthused to be doing it, however, the outcome did not reflect that attitude, so I would do business with this company again. He arrived on time and completed the work within the specified time frame and didn't take up my time chatting about unnecessary things.

Robert did a great job of getting the van cleaned up. It was in pretty rough shape when he started. He made a huge improvement. I would say that he reached all of the potential improvement possible for the vehicle. He was even able to eliminate the cigarette odor.

He also recommended a couple of places to help me fix some door dents. Really nice guy and unbelievably professional. You can't go wrong.

Robert arrived right on time and gave me a price to fix the car right then. He said it would take 20 minutes which it did. He buffed out the scratches and finished but then when we looked at it we both noticed that there were some scratches also on the back of the car. He unpacked his equipment and proceeded to fix the rest of the scratches and did not ask for more money either. What a guy! I highly recommend him and will hire him to do a complete detail on my car in the future.

Great job and RK Auto Restoration was exactly the way Angie's list customers had written! I was very pleased with the work, my only regret was it was not nicer weather to savor the moment.

Robert came out exactly when he said he would, 8 am and worked non stop till around 2 pm. My car was a disaster after 2 years of using it on a farm. It had hay, mud, trash, spills, and the wear of three kids. Robert did a great job of cleaning it and I was very pleased with the final product. I would only say that there were a few areas in the trunk that could have used a second or third pass of the vacuum.
Description of Work: Station wagon needed a deep cleaning/detailing after 2 years of farm use.
