Mobile Car Detailing in Blainville, QC
LUXOPLUS provides mobile car detailing for Blainville residents. Our shop is about 35 minutes up the 15, so the van comes to your driveway, with no travel fee.
We detail your car in your own driveway, at the same flat price we charge anywhere in Greater Montreal. Coming up from Côte-des-Neiges doesn’t add a travel fee. Book online in about a minute and we’ll confirm by text. You can cancel for free up to 24 hours before.
Book the Mobile Prestige Interior for the inside, or the full Mobile ABSOLUX for inside and out. The mobile detailing page has prices for both. The van brings its own water and power, so all it needs is room beside the car. Anything that needs our bay, like paint correction or a ceramic coating, means bringing the car down to Van Horne. More on that below.
Settled streets in Fontainebleau, new ones in Chambéry
Parc équestre, Blainville
Most of Blainville lives in houses with a driveway, which is the easiest setup there is for us. The van pulls in beside the car and we get to work.
Fontainebleau is the more settled side. The ravine trail runs right through the neighbourhood, a path along a little creek with wooden footbridges, and you can pick it up off boulevard de Fontainebleau for a walk after supper.
Chambéry, just northeast of it, is still going up. New houses and townhouses keep filling in around the strips of forest the city kept. While a phase is being built, the street can sit on its first coat of asphalt without curbs for a while, and a lot of new driveways stay gravel until the final paving. Add the builders’ trucks going by all day and a car parked out there wears a fine layer of dust on the paint, with more of it walked into the carpet.
Crushed stone on the streets, salt on the 15
Blainville doesn’t sand its streets in winter. The city spreads crushed stone instead, sometimes mixed with salt, on the hills, stops and curves. It grips better than sand, but the little sharp chips end up everywhere. They ride home in the tire treads and on the bottoms of boots, then grind into the carpet and pile up in the door sills. By March the mats crunch when you step on them.
If you work in Montreal, your morning probably starts on the 15, through Laval and over the Médéric-Martin. It’s salted hard from the first storm on, and the trucks ahead of you keep the spray coming. By the time you’re downtown, the lower half of the car has a white film. Even on train days the car does the winter run to the station lot on boulevard de la Seigneurie and waits there in the open until evening.
The Mobile Prestige Interior is the one for stones and salt on the floor. If the outside needs it too, book the Mobile ABSOLUX and we’ll do both in one visit. Here’s what each mobile detail covers.
Weekends around the Parc équestre
On a nice Saturday, a lot of Blainville ends up at the Parc équestre, next to city hall on chemin du Plan-Bouchard. There’s a pond, and a short trail through the woods with signs about the plants and animals you’ll spot along the way. Once it freezes, the park gets an ice ring for skating.
Leave the car at the park and you can walk into the Boisé du Plan-Bouchard, a longer loop on boardwalks through the bog. Partway along you pass what’s left of a munitions plant from the Second World War.
If you ride, La Seigneurie des Plaines bike path starts on the côte Saint-Louis and heads east toward Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines and Terrebonne. Through the woods and the big bog on the Blainville side, the path is packed stone dust. That dust coats the bikes, then the cargo area and the back bumper on the way home. Add a muddy dog back from the trails in the fall and the back of the SUV needs more than a vacuum.
For a coating, the car comes down to Van Horne
Paint correction and ceramic coating need our bay at 5300 Van Horne in Côte-des-Neiges, and so do the hand washes. From Blainville it’s the 15 south most of the way, through Laval and down the Décarie. Figure about 35 minutes when traffic’s moving, which usually means not a weekday morning.
For a car that does the 15 all winter, a ceramic coating is the shop job worth the drive. Coated paint lets go of salt and road film more easily, so a quick wash actually gets it off. The packages start with the 1-year Lustre. Fall, before the city puts the first stone down, is a good time to book it.
Blainville questions
Stones, dust and the 15
We just moved into Chambéry and the driveway isn’t paved yet. Can you still come?
Usually, yes. The van needs room beside the car, and a gravel driveway works. If the asphalt went down in the last few days, tell us when you book so we know what we’re pulling into. Build dust gets on the paint and into the carpet, so the Mobile ABSOLUX, inside and out, is usually the one to book.
By March my mats are full of those little stones the city puts down. Can you get them out of the carpet?
That’s what the Mobile Prestige Interior is for. The stones work their way under the mats and into the seat rails, so shaking the mats out in the driveway only gets you so far. Salt comes in with them, and the white marks lift a lot easier if you don’t leave them until spring.
I drive the 15 every day. Will a ceramic coating stop stone chips?
No. A coating is a thin hard layer on the paint, and a stone thrown up by a truck goes right through it. What it does well is shed salt and road film, so the car washes clean faster all winter. Coatings are done at our shop on Van Horne, and the packages start with the 1-year Lustre.
We ride La Seigneurie des Plaines most weekends and the stone dust ends up all over the back of the SUV. Inside or outside job?
Usually both. The dust settles into the cargo carpet and sticks to the bumper and the hatch. A Mobile ABSOLUX does inside and out in one visit.
