Serving Hillsboro & the Tualatin Valley
Hillsboro cars deal with a little of everything: months of rain, commuter grime from Highway 26 and TV Highway, and dust and mud from the farm roads just outside town. Clean Carma brings a complete detailing setup to your home, apartment or office anywhere in Hillsboro, from Orenco Station to South Hillsboro, so there's no shop lobby, no waiting around, and no drive into Portland.
Gavin Lickey founded Clean Carma in 2018 and personally assesses every car before work begins. That matters in Hillsboro, where a car might sit in a business-park lot on Monday and bounce down a gravel road to a winery on Saturday. He adjusts the process to what each car has actually been through instead of running every vehicle through the same checklist.
Built for Tualatin Valley Driving
Hillsboro sits where the suburbs meet the farmland, and that mix is hard on cars. Here's what we see most on Hillsboro vehicles, and how we handle each one.
A lot of Hillsboro drivers spend real time in their cars, whether it's the drive into Portland or long shifts at the business parks along Cornell and Evergreen. Coffee rings, crumbs, a grimy steering wheel and dust in the vents build up faster than most people notice.
How we fix it: interior steam cleaning, upholstery shampoo, vent and console detailing, and a wipe-down of every touch point.
Drive out toward the farms, orchards or wineries around Hillsboro and you bring the fields back with you. Summer dust settles into vents and door jambs, and winter mud cakes in wheel wells and lower panels.
How we fix it: wheel well and lower panel deep clean, jamb clean-out and full interior vacuum and extraction.
Between the Sunset Highway, TV Highway and Cornell Road, Hillsboro commuters drive through constant spray from trucks and traffic. Tar spots collect behind the wheels, and the windshield picks up a hazy film that wipers just smear around.
How we fix it: tar and iron removal, a full foam hand wash, wheel and tire deep clean, and streak-free glass inside and out.
Spring pollen from the valley coats paint and vents, and cars parked under trees in older neighborhoods collect sap, needles and moss in the cowl and window seals.
How we fix it: safe sap removal, vent and console detailing, and paint protection so dirt rinses right off.
