Can I repair my lawn mower myself?

• <div><p>If you are a skilled DIYer with experience, you can do certain lawn mower repairs yourself.

While it might be a little more expensive due to the cost of labor, nothing beats knowing that the job was done successfully (and often with warranties). </p></div>

Derek came in, assessed the problem and gave us a very fair quote. He repaired a leak and replaced our faucet fairly quickly. He was super nice and cleaned up after himself. I'd definitely recommend his services to anyone in need and will use him again for future projects.
