Your Lawn & Garden Power Equipment Needs Love, Too

Whether you take care of the yard for your family or for a living, you rely on your equipment. We work on most makes and models of gas powered equipment: lawn mowers, chain saws, string trimmers, and way more.

Box stores don't service what they sell. Dealers often only work on their own brands. We want to make sure your equipment works when it matters most to you and your family.

Equipment We Work On

Lawn mowers, riding mowers, tillers, string trimmers, leaf blowers, chainsaws, generators, pressure washers…

We repair and maintain gas powered, air cooled lawn and garden equipment. That also includes zero turn mowers, lawn tractors, edgers, hedge trimmers, pole saws, brush cutters, log splitters, wood chippers, water pumps and snow blowers.

We work on most makes and models, including Bad Boy, BCS, Briggs and Stratton, Cub Cadet, Echo, Husqvarna, John Deere, Kawasaki, Kohler, Scag, Stihl, Toro, Walker, and Wright.

Keep It Running

We want your equipment to last. We can help you figure out what's worth putting money into and what you can still get parts for. If it's not worth fixing, we'll tell you.

Note: we don't work on power sports equipment, battery powered equipment, or farm tractors. We do limited work on diesel and liquid cooled engines. Not sure about yours? Give us a call. We're happy to talk it through with you.

Our Services

Repairs

Uh-oh, lawn mower won’t start up? Call or text us to set up a drop off or pickup. We'll call you with what we found, why it matters, and what we can do about it.

Maintenance

We do equipment maintenance services year round. But old-school wisdom is that the best time to get your mower serviced is when the grass isn't growing, so it starts right up come April.

For Professionals

Your equipment is how you make a living. We're easy to get a hold of, and we do it right the first time. Whether you’re calling us in the off season to get ready for spring, or mid season to get your equipment back to work, we’re happy to help out.

$50 round trip covers most equipment delivery in Mars Hill, Weaverville, Asheville, Black Mountain, and Swannanoa (anywhere along the Black Mountain → Mars Hill 40/240/26 corridor). We can go farther for a per mile charge.

Straightforward Work

We bill everything hourly (with a 30 minute minimum). We'll call with an estimate before we make any repairs.

Most repairs are about a two week turnaround. While we have your equipment, we look over the whole machine, not just the part that failed, to make sure you’re set up well for the season!
