I'm no judge of anything computer-related so I'll just be the first to say, " Welcome to the forum and best wishes for success. "

The content seems to be alright but.. it doesn't look very good. It looks very plain. The type is very small and a bit hard to read.

I don't feel you business. I want to be able to get a taste for what your business is about.

Joe- Good points indeed !
Scott- After reading it over, I find the text isn't exciting enough and the need to click links to read more about a service makes it feel disorganized. I'd like it better if the home page had big tabs to click on that sent you to a page devoted to the desired subject.
Some clearer text would read : " Auto detailing, whether exterior, interior or both will leave your car beautifully clean and protected.
Paint Touch-up service employs a professional process that makes stone chips and scratches almost disappear.
Paint Sealant protection lasts easily three times as long as commonly-used car waxes.

Every car has its own needs and condition. Come in and let us evaluate your car's needs. We'll discuss your wishes and goals before recommending specific services and giving you a free, no obligation estimate in writing. You'll be surprised how much you get for your money.
Click any of the tabs at left for more information. "

Notice that I only mentioned the pricing policy once. Emphasize customer benefits instead of technical details such as exactly how you apply touch-up paint. Make the text flow.
My opinion only but I hope it gives you some ideas.

Scott,

Your site looks good. Always keep in mind that most websites are a work inprocess. It is always a good idea to plan to make changes when you think they are necesssary.

Scott-
Perhaps you can identify a trigger that will cause a customer to want his car detailed. Examples, " Impress your date by picking her up in a spotless car that even smells extra nice." " Get a reconditioning detail to make your car worth hundreds more dollars." " People will think it's a show car."
" Enjoy the feeling of driving a new car without the payments."
" Shouldn't your car be as clean as your house." " Your paint protects the car. Our sealant protects the paint."
Feel free to use any of these triggers.
