Excellent work on a car that really needed it. Tony was responsive, professional and went far beyond standard service, driving me to the car rental on a day that must have been busy for him.

Price for job was supposed to be $119, but he needed another $150 to complete the job. I felt it was fair.

I used a groupon and they did excellent work. He also drove me home when I dropped off my car and also picked me up when the work was done.

The experience was great, although scheduling took over a month. But, on that day the service was prompt and toni dropped me off at the nearest mall for a few hours. Overall my vehicle was awesome after the detailing. I am thinking of doing it once more this summer if the deal is offered again.
Description of Work: Complete detailing both inside and out, polished, waxed, shampooed etc. It was pretty dirty and he did an awesome job.

The service worked out very well. It was on an older car and they missed a couple compartments that were hidden in the arm rests. I had it scheduled and I did have to reschedule. They were very nice with the scheduling. I was able to do business in the area and then a couple of hours later the car was done.
Description of Work: They did the interior and exterior cleaning on a 1992 Lincoln Towncar. This was through a Big Deal.

Took my car to Tony's Recon to get it cleaned up prior to selling. Car came out looking better than when I had originally bought it. They offered a great service at a great price. They were flexible and able to accommodate my schedule. I will definitely consider going to them again in the future. There is only on street parking and no waiting room, so I recommend dropping off the car and picking up later.

Pro's.... They cleaned the carpets great, the dash looked terrific, windows were all washed Con's.... They missed the glove box, 2 cup holders, the rubber mats were washed but not scrubbed, some labels for the vents were scrubbed off and the little areas around the seats on the floor were dirty and not vacuumed I've never had a car detailed, so not sure how to compare with others. Perhaps a car in better shape would have come out better. Not a miserable experience, but not 100%.
Description of Work: This was my first detailing of a 6 year old minivan, which was pretty sticky. They took us promptly, due to an immediate need for a detailing.

There is no waiting room, and only street parking. There are lunch restaurants nearby, though. Nonetheless, the guys did a great job, and I would go back.

Employees are well trained work hard to provide a quality cleaning. Compounding and other advanced detailing were not included with the coupon. Tony, the owner, was gracious enough to drive me to a local mall while the service was being done.

Worked out just fine. Signed up on line and then called a few days later to schedule an appointment based on my travel schedule. When we dropped off the car, Tony was not there but the guys who work for him were expecting me and there were no issues or questions.. Dropped off the car in the morning and then they called when it was ready. They did a great job. Car had not been detailed in a long time and was a bit of a mess. They did a very thorough job and for the money paid, it was a very good deal.

This provider may be good at detailing people's cars, however since they never got back to us (nor the people at Angie's List), they either have terrible customer service or were not equipped to handle the volume of requests coming in. Eitherway, I would not use (or recommend) this service / provider. NOTE: Since this was my first experience with Angie's List, I almost cancelled my subscription on the spot. However, the last Angie's List Support agent I spoke with (that helped process my refund) was kind enough to provide me with another recommendation which worked out very well.
Description of Work: Per the Big Deal offer, the provider would call back and schedule an appointment within 48 hours of buying the Big Deal offer. After 1 week, and multiple attempts by me to contacting the provider (through Angie's List), I requested a refund of the Big Deal offer. Even the Angie's List support agents (and managers) were not able to get in touch with the provider.

Tony is great. This is the second time my fiancee and I have used him. Last fall he came to Danvers and picked up her car, took it to his shop, detailed it, and then dropped it back off to me at work by the end of the day. This past time I dropped my truck off the night before and left my keys in his shop's drop box. The following afternoon he called and the truck was ready to be picked up. I couldn't get to it before he closed so he locked my keys in the truck (I used my spare to let myself in) and I left him a check in his drop box. Never even saw him face to face this last time but was totally comfortable with the situation because he'd been so good in the past. For the amount of dirt and sap on my SUV the $65 was more than reasonable and saved me hours of cleaning that I didn't have. We originally found him through Groupon for a complete SUV detail for $100 (interior and exterior) but I only needed the outside done. I called him and explained that I only wanted the outside done and because of all the trees over my driveway I wanted an extra (2nd coat) of wax after they cleaned the truck. He came up with the price and even offered suggestions about how to remove the sap in the future without damaging the paint so I could do a better job of keeping up with the problem myself. A+ service.

Tony calls you right back if you have left a message, and is extremely accommodating about when you can bring the car in, which is great because we have such busy work schedules. The team of guys who work on the car are so hard working and very friendly. Tony exudes a strong sense of pride about his business and is an absolute perfectionist. Every inch of our car sparkles and it literally looks like a brand-new car. We are definitely bringing my husband's car in next month! The price is very reasonable and he also has some good deals. We gave him a bit extra because the results were so impressive. It is pretty easy to find--practically right off 128 N, and then turn right and drive straight through several (about four?) sets of lights in Peabody. Take a left on Caller Street, which is opposite Tedeschi's (if you pass McDonald's you have missed the street). It's on the left practically when you turn the corner. We drove out from Central Mass., believe it or not, because the reviews were so good. This is a real, service-oriented business--makes you think there is hope for this country.
Description of Work: Tony and his team detailed our 12 year old SUV: they cleaned it inside and out, shampooed the front seats twice, and waxed the car. I think the must have gone over the whole thing with Q-tips to remove even the slightest speck of dust.

The car was in dire need of a good cleaning inside and a waxing outside. Tony's team was thorough, washing everything inside and out. The got out some old set-in stains in both the front bucket and back bench seats and cleaned all the vents. The car was nicer than at any time since we drove it off the lot. The job only took a couple of hours and they were very friendly. I'd go back again next time I want the car detailed. The $99 coupon was worth every penny.

Because we had a conflict on the scheduled date, we had to drop the Pilot off the day before and were disappointed that there was only street parking available. Tony's initial reception was also less than friendly and so we lowered our overall expectations. The next afternoon we picked up the Pilot and were amazed at the transformation. The much-loved Pilot looks terrific - inside and out. Tony was also very friendly and proud of the work: and quot;Say hello to your new Honda!and quot;
Description of Work: This was a special Angie's Deal for car detailing. Our 2006 Honda Pilot looks brand new! The interior (which was definitely in need of attention) is now almost good as new!

We arrived early but Tony took us right away. The detailing was done way before we had expected. The car looks just great now. Tony also offered to try to work out some scratches for us and he and his crew did a really good job. Couldn't be happier. Glad we got to meet Tony, too.
Description of Work: Tony took us early and really cleaned up our dirty car. Really made our 5 year old Prius shine once again. Did everything from the interior, its carpets and mirrors, to the wheel rims.

Wow! It was like getting a brand new car back - both inside and out. So easy too. The appointment was made a few weeks out from when I called because of the popularity of the coupon. Tony requested that the car be dropped off at his garage in the morning. By mid-afternoon the car was ready, but I wasn't. Tony patiently waited to close his garage while I drove from Cambridge to pick up my husband in Danvers, and then drive to Peabody in rush hour traffic. We arrived at his garage outside of business hours and he greeted us with a big smile and warm handshake. I got into my car, which had never been detailed and only marginally cleaned in the last 5 years. We have 3-year old son, who eats in the car, and 3 dogs, so it was a filthy mess, but when I got in after Tony did his magic it was like I was picking it up from Toyota of Watertown 5 years ago! Thanks Tony! You did an awesome job!

They were fine. They did a good job, however their operation wasn't what I expected, they were working out of a really cramped garage. It looked like a private house with a separate garage and it felt like they were working in really thick quarters. It didn't exactly seem safe to me because of the fumes they were inhaling. I met with Tony, he was a nice guy and he did a good job. I had a group on that he accepted. Tony was really flexible as to when I can drop off and pickup my car. It was a good experience but I just was surprised by their working conditions. Car detailing is really expensive but this was an excellent price. At the beginning, I was a little afraid to leave my car there but it came pretty fine in the end.

Tony accepted the appointment on short notice over the phone and told me it would take about 2 hours, but with two other cars it would take until the mid afternoon to complete the job. In fact, he was flexible and offered to detail the car any day and said if dropping it off for the day was not good he could set a fixed time to be more convenient. This was nice. He even offered to make a local pickup and drop off it I needed it (I did not). This was also a nice offer. Tony and his guys are very customer service focused and it shows. They are all professional and nice i.e. no attitude, etc. Tony was busy when I arrived so I did not meet him, but his employees greeted me, took the Groupn code, name, cell number, etc. Easy drop off procedure and they called when the car was ready. The whole process of drop off and pick up was easy and fast. The work performed was an exterior and interior car detail. I have a luxury sedan with real wood interior accents and leather everywhere. The interior was very clean when I dropped it off, but they did a good job on the glass, and vacuumed and shampooed the carpets and mats. Overall the interior was very clean but there where some spots left over on the wood that I wiped off and they must have missed the dust on the top of the steering column and instrument cluster. The exterior was washed and they did a good job cleaning the paint and removing bugs, debris, and fine scratches. There was some left over wax or polish on the rocker panels but this was okay. I wiped it down, no problem. Overall the paint and headlights and taillights are very clean and they shine. I hope it lasts a while (not sure what type or how much wax they use). I did notice they did not touch the alloy exhaust tips which were dull and covered in carbon (black/gray). I have auto metal polish so I will do this myself, but next time I will ask if they do this upon request or not. It only takes about 5-10 minutes to clean and polish two exhaust tips. Overall I was very happy and I will bring my other car there soon. Tony provides a very good service, at a good value, and his customer service and flexibility make this a no hassle process. I would recommend you try Tony's Recon for your vehicle detailign needs.
