Q: What are common lawn mower issues?

• <div><p>Engine failure, clogged carburetors, dull blades, and electrical issues are common problems requiring service.</p></div>

Q: Why did people stop using reel mowers?

In the decades that followed, technological advances made self-propelled mowers more affordable and plentiful. Many Americans came to see reel mowers as old-fashioned, inconvenient, and time-consuming, and they eventually fell out of fashion. </p></div>

Q: How often should I tune up my lawn mower?

• <div><p>Tune up your lawn mower once a year or every 100 hours of run-time.</p></div>

Q: How often should a lawn mower be tuned up?

They repaired a busted pipe in the backyard but deleted my hose spigot. I contacted them to fix the issue but they wanted to charge me to add the hose spigot back like it was before. I paid $437.86 for the repair

The repair included parts and labor and the work on fuses. The shimmy is gone. The car starts without needing to pump the gas. I have used Roberts for several years and find them to be honest in their dealings with the public and they will not do a repair if it's not needed.
