Mobile Detailing in Holly

The lake is at the end of the street. So is the trail dust.

Holly is the East Austin neighbourhood that touches Lady Bird Lake, so cars park a few blocks from the shoreline parkland and the hike-and-bike trail, and the fine grit from both settles on paint and gets tracked onto floor mats.

Holly covers about a square mile of East Austin on the north shore of Lady Bird Lake, running up to 7th Street, with East Cesar Chavez to the west and Govalle to the east. For decades the neighbourhood lived beside the Holly Street Power Plant, which Austin Energy ran from 1958 until 2007; the site was later cleared and handed to the parks department. Today the waterfront is parkland, from Fiesta Gardens to Edward Rendon Sr. Park at Festival Beach and the hike-and-bike trail along the shore. Houses on the older lots range from early-1900s cottages to modern infill.

Living a few blocks from the lake shapes car care here more than anything else. Trips to the trail and the shoreline parks bring back fine grit on shoes, bikes, boards and dogs, and it grinds into floor mats and seat seams. Sand and dust settle on the paint too, and wiping them off dry is exactly how swirl marks start. Many cars here live outside, on the street or in a short driveway under pecans and oaks. A careful wash with plenty of lubrication, followed by a paint sealant, keeps that grit from scratching, and a seat and carpet shampoo pulls it out of the fabric inside.

We come to you in Holly — detailing everything from lake-run hatchbacks to work trucks. All we need from the house is an outdoor spigot and an outlet.
