Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about booking a detail with Lucido.
Booking and coverage
Which areas do you cover?
All of Buckinghamshire and the surrounding Home Counties, including parts of Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire and Bedfordshire. Check your postcode on our areas page, or just ask.
How do I book?
Send an enquiry through our contact page, message us on WhatsApp or call 07526 117138. We'll confirm a price and a time that suits you before any work starts.
How much does it cost?
Every car is different, so we quote based on its size, condition and the service you choose. You'll always have a clear price before we start.
Do I need to be home?
Not necessarily. Let us know where the car will be and how we can get to it when you book, and you can carry on with your day.
Services
Which service do I need?
If your paint is in good shape, a Maintenance Wash keeps it that way. If it looks dull or swirled, Polish & Protect brings it back. For the longest-lasting result, choose a Ceramic Coating. Not sure? Tell us about the car and we'll recommend honestly.
What's the difference between Polish & Protect and a Ceramic Coating?
Both start by improving the paint. Polish & Protect finishes with a wax or sealant that typically lasts weeks to months. A ceramic coating is a much tougher layer that lasts years with the right care.
Do you work on 4x4s and vans?
Yes, we detail cars, 4x4s and vans of all sizes. Just tell us what you drive when you get in touch.
On the day
How long does it take?
A maintenance wash takes a few hours. Polishing and ceramic coating can take a full day or more, depending on the car. We'll give you a time when we quote.
What if it rains?
Washes and interior work can usually go ahead in light rain. Polishing and coatings need dry conditions, so we'll rearrange with you if the weather turns.
Still have a question? Get in touch and we'll be happy to help.
