Engine Detailing
Our professional engine detailing is a meticulous process designed to safely deep clean your entire engine bay. We carefully remove the tough layers of dirt, grease, and road grime that build up on components, restoring the kind of clean, sharp look you'd see on a showroom floor. A properly cleaned engine bay isn't just for show; it allows your engine to cool more effectively, which can improve overall function and extend its life.
Our experienced technicians handle every job with expert care. We know exactly how to protect sensitive electronics, alternators, and intakes before applying high-quality degreasers and agitating grime with soft brushes. The entire process uses low-pressure water and is finished with a dressing that protects plastics and hoses without leaving a greasy residue. And since we're fully mobile, we bring this professional service directly to your home or workplace throughout Northern Virginia.

Our Engine Cleaning Process
Our engine detailing process is designed to be thorough, safe, and completely transparent. We follow a methodical approach for every vehicle to ensure consistent, high-quality results without ever cutting corners. From the moment you schedule with us, our goal is to provide a convenient and professional service right at your location.
01
Initial Assessment and Prep
Upon arrival, we don't just start cleaning. We begin with a careful inspection of your engine bay to assess its condition and identify any sensitive areas. Our first action is to protect all critical components, like the alternator and air intake, ensuring they are shielded from moisture.
02
Degreasing and Gentle Agitation
Once the bay is prepped, we apply a high-quality degreaser formulated to break down stubborn grease and grime. Using a selection of soft-bristled brushes, our technicians gently agitate every surface, lifting contaminants from deep within the engine's complex parts without causing damage.
03
Low-Pressure Rinse
With the grime loosened, we use a low-pressure rinse to safely wash away all the degreaser and dirt. This controlled method is completely safe for your engine's electrical systems and ensures a thorough clean without the risk of forcing water into places it shouldn't be.
04
Air Dry and Final Touches
We then meticulously blow-dry the entire engine bay, removing all standing water from every crevice. To finish, we apply a premium, non-greasy dressing to all plastic and rubber surfaces to protect your renewed engine.

Here's What Our Customers Are Saying

Harrison, from Berger Mobile Detailing just finished my Diamond Exterior Detailing. He is such a professional & gentleman.
His prices were better than most for his top-quality work. Just look at my chrome wheel covers; they look like new & so does the whole car! I give him 5 STARS & will definitely use him in the future. I didn't take a "before" pic, but it's never been detailed before today.
It hasn't been washed since 2022, was parked outside under a tree with lots of leaf debris baked into the finish & chrome wheels black with tarnish. Trust me, he's amazing! Thank you, Harrison, for making my car GLEAM!

I just moved to DC recently. I have never had my car detailed before and was referred to Berger Mobile Detailing by my coworker. Scheduling was easy, Great Customer Service and Excellent Results. I am extremely satisfied with the services provided and grateful to be driving in a clean car again!

I’ve had a professional and quality experience with Berger Mobile Detailing. They came to my job and saved me a lot of time and effort. I didn’t worry about going to a car wash and having to clean my car myself. Apart from that the detailers were very nice and professional. The best part about Berger Mobile Detailing is there 100% satisfaction guaranteed. They are willing to come back and redo the job if I didn’t like the quality, but fortunately I didn’t have to because they were great!

I can’t say enough good things about Berger Mobile Detailing! From start to finish, the experience was flawless. Mr. Berger came right on time.
What impressed me most was not just how spotless and shiny the cars turned out, but also the professionalism, friendliness, and pride he clearly takes in his work. He went above and beyond, paying attention to every little detail that most people would overlook. It’s rare to find someone this dedicated and passionate about what they do.

I needed a mobile detailer because of my work schedule. I hired Berger Mobile Detailing because of the reviews here on Google. Harrison was wonderful to work with. My car is a custom color Audi and I wanted quality work.
They did a very thorough detailing inside and out, using my garage as needed. The car looks amazing, the interior looks brand new and they didn't use anything that smelled perfumy or chemically which I really appreciated. The paint is slick and shiny and there's no wax in the cracks. Their work is excellent. I'm extremely happy and will use them again.

Never gotten my car detailed before, saw the reviews on Berger and gave them a try. I was so impressed by the quality of the work, my car looked like it just came off the lot inside and out. Also loved the level of professionalism and communication from Harrison. Very friendly and motivated business man. I am definitely sold on getting my car detailed more often and not letting anyone else touch my car but Harrison.
