Why Tchico

Ottawa has a lot of car washes. This is not one of them.

Rated 5.0 by 110+ Ottawa drivers

Not a corner car wash. Real reviews from real customers who came back.

Hand wash only - never a brush

Two-bucket method and foam cannon pre-soak, so nothing we do puts a swirl in your paint.

Premium coatings, applied properly

Paint corrected first, panels prepped, coating cured. That is why it lasts years, not weeks.

Open 7 days, 8am to 7pm

Book online in under a minute. Multiple bays, so same-week slots are normal.

Built for Ottawa winters

Salt neutralised, not just rinsed. Aquapel on the glass. Coatings that survive February.

Dealerships trust us with their stock

Local dealers send us their lot vehicles. Same standard on your daily driver.

5.0 Excellent — based on 110 Google reviews
Real talk, if you are in Ottawa and you care about your ride, this is the spot. I rolled up with my car full of scratches and swirls and thought I would just get a quick wash. Nope. These guys turned my car into a straight-up mirror. Jaafar and the Tchico Ceramic crew do not just clean your car, they bring it back to life.

The ceramic coating, full wash and headlight restoration were done with exceptional precision and care. When I picked up the car I was honestly amazed — it looked like it just came out of a showroom. What really stood out was the speed and efficiency without compromising quality.

Great place to detail your car or ceramic coating. Prices are extremely fair. We use their services for our dealership vehicles.
Mohammed Hama Ali Google
The shine and smooth finish made it look like it just rolled out of the showroom. The attention to detail was impressive — you can tell he takes pride in his work and takes the time to do it right. Friendly, professional and timely service. 10/10.
Hadi Alameh Google
I recently had my car detailed here and I could not be happier with the results. The attention to detail was impressive — every inch of the car, inside and out, looked spotless. I will definitely be coming back.
Biruk Yadete Google
Amazing job. My car looks brand new, inside and out. Every detail was spotless, from the polished exterior to the deep-cleaned interior. Professional, efficient and clearly passionate about their work. Highly recommended.

Straight answers

Questions people actually ask

Do I need to pay a deposit to book?

No. Booking online is free and takes about a minute — no card, no deposit, no booking fee. You pay when the work is done.

How long does ceramic coating last?

Properly applied over corrected paint, a premium ceramic coating lasts years rather than the few weeks you get from wax. Longevity depends on the product tier and how the vehicle is maintained, and we will tell you honestly what to expect for your car before you commit.

What is the difference between a wash and a full detail?

A wash is the exterior: hand wash, dry and wheel dressing, about 45 minutes. A full detail is inside and out — foam cannon, bug and salt removal, interior shampoo and extraction, every jamb, vent and panel by hand — and takes anywhere from one to eight hours depending on the vehicle and package.

Can you get road salt out of my carpets?

Yes. Salt removal is included in every full detail. We neutralise and hot-water extract rather than just vacuuming, which is the only way the white staining actually leaves the fibres.

Do you take walk-ins?

We do when there is room, but booking online is the only way to guarantee a slot and it costs nothing. Call us if you need something the same day.

How long should I leave the car with you?

A wash is under an hour. A full detail on a sedan is one to three hours; on a large SUV or a VIP package, plan for most of the day. Ceramic coating usually needs the vehicle overnight so the coating can cure properly.

Will paint correction remove every scratch?

It removes swirls, holograms and light scratches — anything sitting in the clear coat. Damage deep enough to catch your fingernail has gone through the clear coat and cannot be polished out. We inspect first and tell you which of the two you have.

Where are you located?

We are at 2489 Del Zotto Ave, Ottawa, ON K1T 3V6 — just off Hawthorne in the south end, easy to reach from Hunt Club, Riverside South, Barrhaven and Orléans.
