Q: How do I know if my lawn mower can handle leaves?

• <div><p>A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn&rsquo;t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that&rsquo;s a good sign it&rsquo;s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.</p></div>

Q: Do services include blade sharpening?

• <div><p>Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.</p></div>

Q: Why did people stop using reel mowers?

• <div><p>The American ideal of a large, perfectly-manicured lawn is tied to the post-World War II suburban housing boom. 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: What are some simple lawn mower problems I can fix on my own?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for minor issues like replacing spark plugs, but professional repairs ensure proper diagnostics and longevity.</p></div>

Q: Why is my lawn mower smoking?

• <div><p>Sometimes dark smoke trailing out of your lawn mower is the result of excess oil. It smokes as it burns off. Other times, it could signal a problem with the combustion or contaminated fuel. If changing the fuel and cleaning your mower doesn&rsquo;t help, call a professional (especially if the smoke is white).</p></div>

They did an excellent job. Had to have a couple things repaired that was caught in the home inspection. The job was quick. The cost could always be cheaper but I was only charged a service call.

What really sold me on this shop was the courtesy I was given by the employee's. I did not talk to the repair man until the next day. What blew me away that they did not charge for the service. I will take the machine back if I have any problems. I will also delight in shopping at this store.
