Mobile boat and RV detailing in Fort Lauderdale, with wash, wax and ceramic coating work.
A trailer that sits outside in South Florida sun takes a beating, and the gelcoat on the front cap usually shows it first. Fort Lauderdale has exactly one trailer washing detailer listed here, rated 4.0 from 5 reviews, with 12 more nearby if you widen the search. That is a thin field, so it pays to know what to ask before you book. A wash is easy. Getting oxidation off before wax or ceramic is the part people underestimate.

Ten-Tex Boating is the single trailer washing detailer listed in Fort Lauderdale, and it also handles mobile work, ceramic coating and wax, with oxidation removal noted as a feature. With one local option, the conversation matters more than the count. Ask whether they come to you or you bring the trailer in, and whether they bring their own water and power. Ask for the price per foot rather than a flat quote, since trailer length drives the labor. And ask what they do about oxidation before any wax goes on, because wax over chalky fiberglass just hides the problem for a month or two. The 4.0 rating from 5 reviews is a small sample, so read what those reviewers actually said.
A wash and wax is the baseline, and for a trailer stored outside it is a repeat job, not a one-time favor. Ceramic coating lasts longer and sheds water better, but it only performs if the surface underneath is clean and free of oxidation. I paid too much once for a ceramic coat on a faded cap and watched it fail in patches, so I now insist on oxidation removal first and ask what the prep involves. On a trailer, the roof and the front cap take the worst of it. Plan on upkeep either way: gentle washing, no harsh detergents, and a reapplication schedule the detailer puts in writing. Twelve nearby detailers give you fallback options if the local one is booked.
Plenty of trailer owners in Fort Lauderdale wash in the driveway, and that can run into association rules or local restrictions on runoff. Check before you drag out the hose and bucket, especially if you live in a condo or an HOA neighborhood. If washing at home is out, a mobile detailer solves it, which is why asking about mobile service comes first. For anything beyond a basic rinse, let a detailer handle the roof and the oxidized panels. Fort Lauderdale sits close to the water and the sun is strong, so a trailer left outside between trips collects salt film and grime fast. A regular wash beats one big correction every few years.
One detailer is listed in Fort Lauderdale, Ten-Tex Boating, rated 4.0 from 5 reviews. Another 12 are listed nearby, so if the local one is booked or you want a second quote, there are alternatives within driving distance. Ask each one the same questions about water, price per foot and oxidation removal so you can compare fairly.
Yes. Ten-Tex Boating is listed with mobile service along with trailer washing, ceramic coating and wax. Mobile means they come to your trailer instead of you towing it across town. Confirm where they can work and whether they need access to water or power at your location before you schedule a visit.
If the fiberglass feels chalky or looks dull, yes. Wax and ceramic coating bond poorly to oxidized gelcoat and can fail early. Ask the detailer how they handle oxidation and whether it is included in the quote or billed separately. Getting that straight beforehand saves the kind of disappointment I had with a coating that did not hold.
Ask how long the coating is expected to last, what washing products are safe on it, and when it needs inspection or a refresh. Ceramic does not mean you stop washing the trailer. Regular gentle washes keep dirt from bonding and help the coating do its job, especially on a roof and cap that see constant sun.
