Hear from Our Customers
Your vehicle stays protected against North Haven’s harsh winters and road conditions. No more worrying about salt damage, swirl marks from automatic washes, or fading from UV exposure.
Paint correction removes years of damage while ceramic coatings provide long-term protection that keeps your car looking showroom-fresh for years, not months. You get back the confidence that comes from driving something that truly reflects your standards.
The difference is immediately visible and long-lasting. Your investment maintains its value while you enjoy the pride of ownership you felt the day you bought it.
Legacy Motors and Marine has been serving North Haven’s discerning vehicle owners with specialized detailing services that go beyond what typical shops offer. We understand that your luxury vehicle, classic car, or high-performance machine represents a significant investment that deserves expert care.
Our climate-controlled facility protects your vehicle during service while our team uses only professional-grade products from industry leaders like XPEL, CQuartz, and CarPro. North Haven’s challenging weather conditions – from winter road salt to summer heat – demand protection that standard waxes simply can’t provide.
We’ve built our reputation by treating each vehicle as if it were our own, delivering results that exceed expectations every time.
Everything starts with a thorough assessment of your vehicle’s current condition and your specific needs. We examine the paint, interior surfaces, and any existing damage to create a customized service plan.
Your vehicle moves into our climate-controlled facility where we perform a complete decontamination process. This removes embedded contaminants that regular washing can’t touch – road tar, tree sap, industrial fallout, and other pollutants that damage your paint over time.
Next comes paint correction if needed, removing swirl marks and minor scratches to restore that mirror-like finish. We then apply your chosen protection – whether ceramic coating, paint protection film, or premium sealants – followed by interior detailing that addresses every surface. You receive your vehicle in better condition than when you brought it in, protected against future damage.

Our full-service auto detailing covers everything your vehicle needs to maintain showroom condition. Paint protection film installation shields high-impact areas from stone chips and road debris – especially important on North Haven’s highways. Ceramic coatings provide up to 10 years of protection against UV rays, chemical stains, and environmental contaminants.
Interior detailing goes beyond basic cleaning to include leather conditioning, fabric protection, and deep cleaning of all surfaces. We handle vintage collectibles with special care, understanding that these vehicles require different techniques and products than modern cars.
Hand washing services eliminate the risk of swirl marks from automatic car washes while paint correction removes existing damage from years of improper care. Every service includes concierge pickup and delivery because we understand your time is valuable. North Haven vehicle owners choose us because we deliver results that protect their investment while exceeding their expectations.
Professional ceramic coatings typically last 5-10 years depending on the specific product and your vehicle’s exposure to elements. In North Haven’s climate, with harsh winters and road salt exposure, a quality ceramic coating provides crucial protection that traditional waxes simply can’t match.
The coating creates a permanent bond with your paint that resists chemical stains, UV damage, and makes regular cleaning much easier. You’ll notice water beading off the surface and contaminants washing away with minimal effort. Most of our North Haven clients see their coating performing excellently well past the 5-year mark with proper maintenance.
Paint protection film (PPF) is a physical barrier – like a clear screen protector for your car – that absorbs impacts from stone chips, scratches, and road debris. It’s particularly valuable for high-impact areas like the front bumper, hood, and mirror caps where North Haven’s highways can cause damage.
Ceramic coating is a chemical bond that becomes part of your paint, providing protection against UV rays, chemical stains, bird droppings, and tree sap while making cleaning easier. Many of our clients choose both – PPF for physical protection in vulnerable areas and ceramic coating over the entire vehicle for chemical and UV protection. This combination offers the most comprehensive protection available.
Absolutely, and this is where our expertise really shows. Vintage and collectible vehicles require completely different approaches than modern cars. Original paint from decades past needs gentle techniques and specific products that won’t damage delicate finishes or compromise authenticity.
We assess each classic car individually, understanding that some may have single-stage paint, different clear coat formulations, or original interior materials that demand specialized care. Our team has experience with everything from 1960s muscle cars to modern supercars, adjusting our methods accordingly. We never use aggressive compounds or techniques that could harm irreplaceable original finishes.
While we primarily operate from our climate-controlled facility to ensure optimal results, we do offer concierge pickup and delivery service throughout North Haven. This gives you the convenience of mobile service while ensuring your vehicle receives the controlled environment treatment it deserves.
Our facility allows us to work in consistent conditions without weather interference, dust contamination, or temperature fluctuations that can affect coating applications and paint correction results. The pickup and delivery service means you get professional facility-quality results without the inconvenience of bringing your vehicle to us yourself.
For luxury and high-performance vehicles in North Haven, we typically recommend comprehensive detailing every 3-4 months, with maintenance washes monthly. However, this varies significantly based on your driving habits, storage conditions, and the protection already on your vehicle.
Vehicles with ceramic coatings require less frequent intensive detailing but benefit from regular maintenance to preserve the coating’s effectiveness. Classic cars or garage-kept vehicles may need less frequent service, while daily drivers exposed to North Haven’s winter conditions may need more attention. We create customized maintenance schedules based on your specific vehicle and usage patterns.
Professional auto detailing investment varies based on your vehicle’s size, condition, and the services needed. Basic full-service detailing typically starts around $200-300, while comprehensive packages with paint correction and ceramic coating can range from $1,000-3,000 or more for luxury vehicles.
Paint protection film installation varies by coverage area – partial front-end protection starts around $1,500 while full-vehicle coverage can reach $5,000-8,000. These aren’t expenses – they’re investments in maintaining your vehicle’s value and condition. Most North Haven clients find that proper detailing and protection actually saves money long-term by preventing damage and maintaining resale value.
