Very prompt, efficient service. Did everything they promised at the price that was quoted. Steam cleaning the engine is not something one needs to do very often but this is the place.

They didn't want the business, so they sent me away...2020 Tacoma wasn't good enough, I guess....

Sam made the cloudy paint on my large van look incredible. Very professional operation, reasonable price and great service. Thanks Sam!

This shop did such a great job steam cleaning my engine! My mechanic was amazed they had gotten all of the grime and junk out. Also, they were quick, polite, and reasonably priced. Highly recommend and will be back!

Sam is very kind, and efficient. I had some gum in the floor board of my car, he removed it with ease, in 5 minutes, and with a smile on his face. Definitely recommend Sam's Sparkle Shop 😁

I missed the first appointment. Sam agreed to rescheduled for cleaning my Subaru front and rear seats. Took a Lyft to Baldini's for breakfast. Returned within an hour. Wal-la Sam is amazing. You definitely have to call to arrange an appointment. Prices are reasonable for the service. Will definitely return again. Give Sam's Sparkle Shop a call for a quote today. You won't find anyone as professional as him.

Wow. My Jeep looks new, I could eat off the engine and everything shines. So thankful I took the chance to try someone new. Will totally recommend Sam for all car detailing.

Wow! Sam's Sparkle Shop is top shelf! First, and foremost, Sam is gracious and generous. There was a miscommunication about my appointment time, which very likely could have been my fault but Sam and his daughter were so accommodating and apologetic even though they likely had the appointment right. The work done on my truck is over the top amazing, I couldn't be more happy with the results! Sam and his staff are consummate professionals, and their customer service and appreciation is off the charts awesome. This Is THE place to take your vehicles to for detailing; hands down. See you

Once again, we revisit Super Sam's Sparkle Shop. This year the 2012 Audi was due for the number 6 detail, which is interior, exterior, engine, and power buffing on the paint. The number 6 is the ultimate detail, which keeps the paint in pristine condition, with the harsh sun, snow, wind, and trash blowing around Northern Nevada this is a once a year maintenance you don't want to miss.

Called up Sam and made the appointment over the phone. Dropped the car off to Sam around 730am on Monday. Talked to Sam around 330pm on the phone and he advised the Audi was just being finished. I

This is the best detailing place in the area with reasonable pricing. I am always very picky on how my cars look as an enthusiast. They did a great job on my Lexus GS that I recently purchased. They also detailed my BMW M5 previously. I highly recommend this place.

I was so thankful to be able to meet the owner and have my car detailed here. I have four young kids and things happen, sometimes they throw up in the car. It's only happened to me twice and the first time I took it to another business that details vehicles and paid them to detail it to get the smell out specifically. When I picked the car up they had told me that the smell just was not going to go away but they were able to take a lot of it out. Though I was disappointed I had to accept it, but not this time thanks to Sam's sparkle shop. I had another incident like it, lucky me, and

How about six stars? If you'd seen the interior of my Prius before I dropped it off at Sam's you would have screamed "Nobody will take that!" The last time it was detailed was nearly 4 years ago, and since then I'd sold nearly everything I owned, packed what was left into the car, and traveled to Death Valley, then down to Mexico where I practically lived out of it for 5 months, all the way down to Mexico City then back up through Texas and... well you get the picture. I brought it by and Sam gave me a super reasonable quote, then we set up an appointment. The day of service

Since purchasing my car, I have never had it detailed. Sam's Sparkle Shop was suggested by many and it was in Sparks which was ideal. They cleaned everything and by everything I meant every nook and cranny (and all the stubborn dog hair) I couldn't get if I were to do it myself. They forgot to put the cover back in my trunk because they were cleaning it, but Sam called me right away to let me know. Not a big deal at all. Would definitely go back.

The owner is a great guy!! I got the basic hand wash and interior clean and it was better than any car wash I've been to in Reno/Sparks!! It was cheaper too!! I left a $20 tip (for the $30 wash) because it was definitely worth it! Will be returning!

Brought a 2004 Yukon for a complete detail, including some annoying Burning Man playa dust that just wouldn't wash out after 5 car washes. They did a fantastic job and looks like a 2017 vehicle. I've told all my friends that this is the place to go for a great deal and a reasonable price.

I am so impressed with Sam's Sparkle shop. If you could have seen the inside of the truck before, you'd think it was a lost cause. Sam's Sparkle shop made it look brand new for an unbeatable price.

Sam's Sparkle is the best place in town to get a regular car wash, or
various levels of detail, all the way up to making a car look great. They'll even steam clean the engine compartment, as well as hand buff and wax, whatever you want. They're very good at this stuff. I highly recommend

Sam has taken care of my two trucks for over twenty years - he is a very conscientious businessman and committed to his business - they really focus on the details here - the door jams and under the hood look like new after a detail job and it's always at a fair price - my dog does a good job of getting the inside pretty muddy but A visit to Sam and it's like new - this is the best place in town for auto detailing

Thank you Sam!! I have a camper van (Sportsmobile) I recently purchased with150,000 miles of good times on & in it. Sam and his team detailed the van yesterday and they made it look & feel brand new (inside and out). GREAT JOB - thank you Sam and team...

My family has utilized Sam's great work for nearly two decades. SamsSparkleShop is in the business of automobile renewing magic - if you need your car to be "clean as new" again, go see Sam and his team for the best detail in the #BiggestLittleCity!

Fantastic job at a VERY reasonable price. I took my RV in for carpet and upholstery cleaning and it came back like new. The price Sam charged me was unreasonably LOW, so I gave him a tip. Now I take all my cars there for detailing. Excellent work at a great price - nice people too.
BTW - I gotta think that the "Garbage" review is bogus. Sounds like our friend darrell got mixed up and is thinking of a different place, or maybe was just having a bad day. When ever you see a review and every sentence ends with an exclamation mark (or several of them), the review is usually a sham.
