    Default Big Bert's vs.Hillsborough Detailers

    So which one is better? In terms of service and materials used (wax, etc...)

    I actually use Big Bert's paint protection service before and once in a while. The boss at Araneta branch also removed serious paint transfer scratch on my bumper with results that is worth every peso I paid for. In other words, I'm very satisfied with Big Bert's. Their Araneta branch is where I go to because it is closer to my location.

    I haven't tried Hillsborough Detailers yet. From what little I gather from the forums, they are charge quite high, friendly owner and staffs, are located quite far for me (Libis, Eastwood) and etc...

    I'm interested to hear more about Hillsborough.

    tagal na sila wala sa buendia they moved it at magallanes.

    for me hillsborugh, i used to go at big bert's but when i heard about hillsborough i went there and had my car washed by them. i liked their service although a bit more expensive than most detailers their service is worth it. their crew are very friendly and helpful unlike other detailers. they do great at washing your car and very very anal, para bang sila din ang owner ng car talagang lahat nakikita pag madumi na engine ko nililinis din nila agad at no extra cost and no need to tell them kusa nila ginagawa. wax nila is so much better than all the detailers i've tried talagang napaka kintab ng kotse mo pag tapos at tangal din mga gasgas na kala mo di na matatanggal. exterior detailing ganon din talagang mabibilib ka, interior no idea since haven't tried this yet. also dami mo makakasabay na magagandang sports car with friendly owners lalo na pag may fun run sila daig pa car show sa gaganda ng auto nila. they're the only detailers i let touch my car and i can leave my car and keys with them with out worrying that something might happen to my car or they might use it without my permission.

    It seems they've been paid to be anal about details. And that's a good thing, assuming you're ok with their rates.

    I think it's good that there are different ranges of detailers. Choose the one you can afford, or the one who you think provides the most bang for your hard earned buck.
